A strapping machine is a device used to secure packages or products with a strap, typically made of plastic or metal. It helps in bundling items together for shipping or storage, ensuring they remain intact during transit. Strapping machines can be manual or automatic, with automatic versions often used in high-volume production environments. These machines work by applying tension to the strap around the package and sealing it, usually through heat or friction. They are commonly used in industries such as logistics, manufacturing, and packaging, where efficient and secure packaging is essential for operations.
