Abstract: Various embodiments of the present disclosure provide a strapping machine that includes a plurality of compact strap dispensers that collectively take up less space adjacent to the frame of the strapping machine and thus provide a strapping machine with an overall reduced footprint. In certain embodiments, the strap dispensers include a static dispenser frame and a coil carriage that supports a strap coil and that is movable relative to the dispenser frame between a strap-dispensing position and an extended position. In the strap-dispensing position, the strap dispenser can dispense strap from the strap coil. In the extended position, the strap coil is positioned clear of the dispenser frame and any adjacent dispensers to enable easy strap-coil replacement. In various embodiments, the strap dispensers include a quick-release retainer that retains the strap coil in place on the coil carriage while being quickly and easily removable for coil changes.

Abstract: Various embodiments of the present disclosure provide a press-type strapping machine with compression sensors that enable the strapping machine to determine the applied compressive force the strapping machine applies to the load. The strapping machine includes a machine frame, a load supporter configured to support and move the load, a platen configured to compress the load against the load supporter, multiple compression sensors configured to sense compressive force, a strapping head configured to strap the load, and a controller configured to control the various components of the strapping machine. The compression sensors are mounted between the machine frame and the load supporter and are configured to send feedback representing detected compressive force to the controller. The controller is configured to use this feedback from the compression sensors to determine the compressive force the platen applies to the load.
