Abstract:
A method and an apparatus for setting corner protectors on a load, in which method the corner protectors are taken from a corner protector storage (4, 5, 6) with a gripper unit, and the corner protectors are set against vertically extending corners of the load prior to or during wrapping of the non-rotatable load with film, wherein first two corner protectors are taken from the corner protector storage (4, 5, 6) with an actuator (2) comprising two gripper units, the first two corner protectors are given by the actuator to a corner protectors transfer and setting device (3, 3'), the corner protectors transfer and setting device transfers the first two corner protectors other side of the load and sets the first two corner posts against the two vertically extending corners of the load furthest away from the actuator second two corner protectors are taken from the corner protector storage and set against the two vertically extending corners of the load closest to the actuator by the actuator.
