GCU
The GCU is a new generation of compression strapping stations with a revolutionary modular design that offers maximum productivity and machine availability.
At the heart of the GCU are two strapping systems, designed around a unique, 'intelligent' strap dispenser system.
The MHC strap feed and tension module is located directly on the dispenser system which incorporates both strap coil and accumulator box. This module transports strap around the circuit, and to the welding module by means of a flexible tube and tensions the strap around the load, before the welding unit securely seals the strap ends by way of a vibration joint. The strap dispenser system can be mounted at floor level or on the bayonet box, for easy accessibility to the feed and tension module and strap coil. The MHC modules are compact and lightweight and, for routine maintenance, can be exchanged for spare units within seconds, without the use of tools or maintenance personnel, thus ensuring maximum up time.

GCU FEATURES
Corner free strap loading
Flexible tubes allow strap to feed smoothly and directly to the sealing module for fast, corner free strap loading.
Automatic strap re-feed
Patented strap re-feed system automatically rewinds and rethreads strap in the event of a miss feed, to ensure maximum uptime and reduce waste strap costs.
Easy access modules
The compact, lightweight tensioning and sealing modules can be exchanged quickly without the use of tools or maintenance personnel, ensuring minimum downtime.
Intelligent strap dispensers
The intelligent strap dispensers incorporate an accumulator box, strap coil and MHC strap application module for instant access and easy strap loading. These can be located on either side of the machine, for maximum flexibility and coil changes can be made in seconds.
