Cranston - Model EP -Strapper

The EP Strapper is Cranston’s wire strapper for pulp bales (wet, dry, and block). It is a portable machine, powered by pneumatic and electric systems. It can apply (2) wires to a typical bale in (12) seconds, including conveying time (300 bales per hour). Wire diameter ranges from 1.8mm /15awg – 2.3mm/13awg diameter and the optional retracting wire guides, assure the wire ends up within +/-6mm / 1/4” from vertical. A tall opening version for wire strapping stacks or big bales, is also available.  This machine utilizes Cranston’s EZ thread coil cage (see below) and can often be configured to fit into early model conveyors for a more cost-effective upgrade. Early model hydraulic Strappers (series 900, 980, 986, 987) can often be converted to the new EP components.
