MA-44
Rotary Tower Automatic Stretch Wrapper

Orion's MA-44
is one of our most popular stretch wrapping systems, and it's no
wonder. The MA-44 is built to last from 100% structural steel
and is loaded with the features you need for fast, efficient and
cost effective stretch packaging. With an arm rotation speed of
16 RPM, 5,000 pound load capacity and standard 245% powered
prestretch, the MA-44 is an excellent choice for medium to high
throughput applications.
Heavy duty conveyors
Unlike some manufacturers, Orion builds all
of their own conveyors in house for the ultimate in quality
control and durability. An "open" mechanical design assures that
motors, gearboxes, etc. are easily accessed for service or
replacement. Each conveyor roller is supported by a full length
solid steel axle and welded on (not pressed on) caps. These
axles are then supported with individual cast housing bearings
for the ultimate in strength and durability.
Insta-Thread™ film delivery system
The Orion Insta-Thread film delivery system
faces the side for easier film roll loading and threading. The
system uses specially designed rollers to accurately elongate
film at a standard rate of 260%.
This highly reliable prestretch systems features the fastest,
easiest and safest film loading on the market, and an advanced
"non-contact" film tension sensor for years of trouble-free
wrapping.
A sophisticated photo eye senses even difficult colored and
reflective loads, and Orion's unique Insta-Sense system pauses
the wrap cycle if the stretch film breaks or runs out.
Allen Bradley controller / VFD drives
The MA-44 uses the Allen Bradley / Series PLC
controller for maximum flexibility and reliability. Low
maintenance, long lasting AC motors are used throughout the
MA-44 thanks to advanced Variable Frequency Drives (VFD)
controllers. The free standing controller is CSA approved, UL
listed and NEMA 12 rated.
Tower drive
A 25" precision ring bearing is used to
support and drive the rotating arm of the MA-44. The chain &
sprocket drive is soft start and stop to for minimal wear and
tear on the drive system. Major components are located within
easy reach for fast maintenance and service.
