21/04/2010: Live Industrial Releases New E-Flex PET Strapping from ITISTRAP

Live Industrial is proud to announce the release of ITISTRAP's E-Flex PET strapping! E-Flex is ITISTRAP's world-renowned Flexter strapping, but embossed instead of smooth. This means that it is manufactured from the same special raw materials and additives as Flexter, specially selected to ensure excellent splitting resistance, a reduced relaxation and joint efficiency, but it is lighter, and therefore costs less! E-Flex is an excellent compromise for manufacturing, distribution and warehousing customers alike who require the higher breaking strengths of Flexter PET strapping, but want to keep costs down.

ITISTRAP's range of PET strapping also includes Standard and Flexter, and is available in a wide variety of widths, thicknesses and lengths, as well as many different colours. It is suitable for every industrial application and is available exclusively from Live Industrial. ITISTRAP's PET strapping is very competitively priced, especially when purchased in 1/2 pallet and pallet lots. Contact us via email or phone to discuss your strapping needs.

03/12/2009: Live Industrial's S-555 Tabletop Semi-Automatic Strapping Machine Has Arrived!

Live Industrial’s new S-555 tabletop semi-automatic strapping machine has arrived!

After generating a large amount of interest in the manufacturing industry before it even hit our shores, the new S-555 semi-automatic strapping machine – exclusive to Live Industrial – has landed in Australia, and is already being sold around the country.

The S-555 tabletop semi-automatic strapping machine, for use with 5 – 15.5mm PP strapping, is packed with up-to-date features with a surprisingly affordable price tag. It is great news for the Australian manufacturing industry because it is compact, light-weight, quiet to run, easy to operate and maintain, and... it is capable of running both 5mm and 12mm PP strapping! As there is approximately double the length of 5mm PP strapping per roll compared to 12mm PP strapping, the S-555 saves customers time (in frequency of PP strapping roll changes) and money. And because it uses less PP strapping per strapped package, it is kinder to the environment. With only a 2 second cycle time, it is the perfect choice for any busy manufacturing environment.

The S-555 semi-automatic strapping machine has a wide range of up-to-date features, including a reliable tensioning system, with the main roller being DC driven. It has a wide tensioning range of 2 – 50kg, enabling customers to use the same machine for strapping a wide variety of products. The S-555 semi-automatic strapping machine has an outside tensioning adjustment with indicator, making it easy to operate. It is also very easy to maintain, with less mechanical parts, both the front and rear hinged tables opening completely, easily accessible track guide and main roller, and a PCB plug and play system for troubleshooting.

13/10/2009: Benefits of ITISTRAP Pet Strapping Over Steel Strapping

Much of the Australian manufacturing industry is moving away from using steel strapping because they are seeing the benefits and cost savings of using PET strapping such as ITISTRAP’s Standard and Flexter range of PET strapping.

The benefits of ITISTRAP’s range of PET strapping include:
- PET strapping does not rust (no corrosion staining of strapped product)
- PET strapping coil weight is 1/2 that of steel (minimises manual handling risks)
- PET strapping coils contain more metres (reduces coil change frequency)
- PET strapping does not have sharp edges (reduces personal injury risk)
- PET strapping is environmentally friendly - it can be recycled!
- PET strapping has a higher retained tension
- PET strapping is elastic (it stretches during application, meaning less strapping is used per pack, resulting in monetary savings!
- PET strapping is weather and UV resistant (it retains high applied tension even in extreme temperatures of 0 – 60°C)
- PET strapping performs well under “shock loading” (it takes 2.5x the energy to break, compared to steel strap of comparable breaking strength)

Live Industrial is the exclusive Australian distributor for ITISTRAP’s range of Standard and Flexter PET strapping, suitable for all industrial applications. ITISTRAP is an Italian company that manufactures and sells a complete range of PET strapping for every industrial application. Both the Standard and Flexter ranges of PET strapping are available in a wide variety of widths, thicknesses, lengths and colours.

ITISTRAP's Standard PET strapping is manufactured from high-quality raw materials, carefully selected and controlled in order to obtain a high-tensile strength and elasticity, a reduced relaxation and a good joint efficiency. The Standard range of PET strapping is like a hand-grade PET strap, and works well with strapping tools, both battery and pneumatic, and works well on automatic machines in most applications, eg. PET bottles, cans, chipboards, concrete blocks. 

ITISTRAP's Flexter PET strapping is manufactured from special raw materials and additives specially selected to ensure excellent splitting resistance, a reduced relaxation and a joint efficiency that can reach 100%. The Flexter range of PET strapping is a machine-grade PET strap, which has been treated with special additives to prevent the splitting. It is suitable for use with strapping tools through to fully automatic machines, and is particularly suited to difficult applications, including in the timber, brick, glass, aluminium, and steel industries.

A large amount of interest was generated for ITISTRAP PET strapping, ITATOOLS strapping tools and Schneider & Ozga strapping machines.
