Method and apparatus for stretch-wrapping a load

摘要

A leading end of packaging materials placed in a retainer to hold the leading end of the packaging material in the retainer. Packaging material is dispensed from a packaging material dispenser (102), and relative rotation is provided between the dispenser and a load (124) to wrap packaging material around the load. The packaging material is automatically released from the retainer in response to force applied by packaging material wrapped around the load, or other unpowered actuation. <IMAGE>
