Tail Treatment
Simple, yet highly effective describes the unique film tail treatment system on MA systems. At the end of the wrapping cycle, The film clamp grips the film web while the
“no build-up” thermal cutter bar severs the film. The load-seeking pneumatically actuated brush then smooths and secures the film tail to the side of the load as it exits. The result is an attractive, secure film tail that stays in place.
• New air knife eliminates hanging film tails
• Pneumatically actuated thermobar cutting system
positively seeks the load for reliable, consistent film
tail brush down.
• Hot knife design assures no build-up of film on
cutting system
• Pneumatically actuated film tail brush load seeking
film tail brush actually “seeks” the load and gently
smooths and secures the film tail
• Free standing, UL Listed, NEMA 12 rated control panel
• State-of-the-art AB MicroLogix PLC Controller for maximum flexibility

The workhorse of the stretch packaging industry, the Orion MA-DX can be configured with a wide variety of available options to create a packaging system perfectly suited to your application. With thousands of systems running world-wide, today’s
MA wrapping systems represent the very latest technology for maximum economy, efficiency and machine durability.
Film clamp, cut & wipe
Simple, yet highly effective aptly describes the unique film tail treatment system on the MA-DX. At the end of the wrapping cycle, Orion’s innovative asymmetrical film clamp grips the film web while the impulse hot wire cuts the film. Then, the load-seeking pneumatically actuated brush smooths and secures the film tail to the side of the load as it is conveyed to the exit conveyor. The result is an attractive, secure film tail that stays in place.
Drive System
The MA-DA features a durable chain & sprocket tower drive system with a precision ring bearing to provide for durable and reliable operation for many years. The dry-lube chain requires little maintenance as compared to direct drive “tooth to tooth” direct gear drives which often require constant greasing. A fully enclosed slip ring assembly reduces maintenance and increases up-time.
Film Delivery System
The ‘heart’ of all MA machines is the Insta-Thread™ film delivery system, an extremely reliable and consistent film carriage engineered to accurately pre-stretch film at a fixed rate and deliver it to the load at a constant tension level.
The AC prestretch motor is controlled by a Variable
Frequency Drive for a high degree of reliability because there are no brushes to replace as with conventional DC motors/drives.
• Lifetime warranty on prestretch rollers
• Uses standard 20" stretch film rolls
• Precision ground, polyurethane pre-stretch rollers
for consistent, maximum film yield
• 260% standard pre-stretch ratio
(optionally available from 100% to 300%)
• Carriage lifted by heavy-duty ANSI industrial chain
• Insta-Sense™ film out/broken sensing logic with
indicator light on control box
• AC Variable Frequency Drive system assures
fast motor response and eliminates brush
replacement in motors as with DC drives.
• Electronic film tension control on control panel
• Full authority film dancer bar with non-wearing
sensor adjusts film output to compensate for
corners of load
• Heavy-duty ANSI chain & sprocket ratio control
• Multi-point UHMW precision carriage guidance
system for smooth, trouble-free operation
• End of cycle film force release prevents film jams
• Highly responsive corner compensation assures
consistent stretch film application
• Lock the load to the pallet with ‘ultra low wrap’
tilted carriage which wraps down to 2" above roller
Orion Elite Conveyor
Orion Elite Series conveyor is built entirely in-house to assure the best quality control over every step of the design and manufacturing process. All conveyor sections are pre-wired, conduit photocells and guards. Conveniently located junction boxes and connectors make trouble-shooting fast and easy.
Threading the Insta-Thread film carriage is fast and easy. Simply open the hinged roller gate and pull the film web through, then latch the roller frame closed.
Graphic instructions on top of the carriage guide the operator through film threading.
The Orion MA-ST automatic wrapping system is designed around the premise that quality and durability need not break the budget. Configured with many of the same high quality components as the DX and X systems, the MA-ST offers high efficiency film delivery, sophisticated controls, a durable and rugged drive system and many more features that make the MA-ST the best value in automated stretch packaging today.
