Dynaric
The N3400 fast automatic plastic banding strapping machine is an energy-saving, strapping machine equipped to provide reliable performance while using less energy. Using standard 120V power to operate the 24V direct drive servo motors. The direct drive servo motors not only save energy but also increasing machine reliability, in-turn reducing machine and production downtime. For quick maintenance or cleaning, the strap path can be easily opened without tools with the new DAT (Direct Access Technology) system. To decrease downtime in between coil changes the N3400 can be equipped with an externally located dispenser that can utilize Dynaric XL coils. The N3400 fast automatic plastic banding strapping machine is equipped with an automatic strap feeding system as well as an “end of strap” sensing system with automatic strap discharge once a coil has been completed. The N3400 can be customized to meet the requirements of any packaging environment.

Gillingham Best
After 20 years, dozens of machines around the world, and millions and millions of cycles, the GBI VPG (Variable Pan Geometry) system leads the industry. No other sticker stacker beats the lower total cost of ownership provided by this revolutionary design. In the VPG system, the sticker is moved from the sticker distribution chain to the stacker fork holding pan by pivoting the pan down to receive the sticker. This simple rugged process provides years of trouble free operation.
