COUSINS 2100-SRT PALLET WRAPPER | 57-INCH TURNTABLE | 4,000-LB DYNAMIC CAPACITY | SUPER RAPID THREAD II
The Cousins 2100-SRT pallet wrapper is a premium semi-automatic system for manufacturers, warehouses, and distribution operations. Ameripak, a Cousins Packaging Master Distributor, offers this low-profile wrapper with experienced application support, programmable controls, and powered pre-stretch technology.
Because its turntable sits only 2.75 inches above the floor, operators can load pallets with a forklift or pallet jack when using the appropriate ramp. As a result, the 2100-SRT works well in facilities that use multiple pallet-handling methods.
Cousins Packaging builds the 2100-SRT in North America with structural-steel construction and industrial AC drives. In addition, its Super Rapid Thread II carriage helps improve film utilization while maintaining controlled load containment. The machine can process up to 35 loads per hour, although actual production depends on load size, wrap settings, and material-handling time.
Facilities comparing loading methods can review Ameripak’s guide to low-profile and high-profile pallet wrappers.
However, pallet loads must remain stable and properly positioned throughout turntable rotation. Therefore, Ameripak should evaluate the load dimensions, weight distribution, product stability, and wrapping requirements before finalizing the machine configuration.
For example, facilities can add a 60-inch-long × 48-inch-wide ramp for manual pallet-jack loading. Additionally, porch extensions can provide the level entry space required by some powered pallet jacks.
The powered pre-stretch system extends the film before applying it to the pallet. Consequently, operators can cover more of the load with each roll while maintaining controlled containment force.
For example, operators can store one program for stable cartons, another for lightweight products, and a third for pallets requiring additional reinforcement. Moreover, separate top and bottom wrap counts allow operators to concentrate film where the load needs greater containment.
Although the machine uses 115-volt single-phase power, it requires a 20-amp electrical supply. Therefore, facilities should verify the available circuit and installation location before delivery.
Therefore, the 2100-SRT can withstand regular industrial use while maintaining accessible controls and operator safeguards.
First, the operator places the pallet onto the low-profile turntable using a forklift or pallet jack. Next, the operator attaches the stretch film to the pallet and selects the appropriate A, B, or C wrap program.
Once the automatic cycle begins, the turntable rotates while the film carriage travels along the tower. Meanwhile, the triple-beam photo eye detects the load height, including products with dark or reflective surfaces. The selected settings then control turntable speed, carriage movement, film force, and the number of top and bottom wraps.
Finally, the carriage returns to its starting position, and the turntable stops at its aligned location. The operator can then cut the film and remove the secured pallet.
Low-profile pallet wrappers work well in facilities that use pallet jacks, forklifts, or a combination of both. Because the turntable sits close to the floor, operators can roll palletized loads onto the machine when using the appropriate ramp.
As a result, the 2100-SRT supports flexible material handling in manufacturing and warehouse environments. The surround deck also protects the turntable while allowing three-sided loading access.
However, operations that load pallets exclusively with forklifts may prefer the CousinsCousins 2100-SRT high-profile pallet wrapper. The correct configuration ultimately depends on the facility’s pallet-handling equipment and available floor space.
Manual wrapping often produces inconsistent film tension, wrap patterns, and load containment. In contrast, the 2100-SRT applies repeatable machine-controlled settings to each pallet.
Because the Super Rapid Thread II system stretches film before application, it can increase the amount of coverage produced from each roll. Meanwhile, electronic dancer control adjusts film force as the load moves through corners.
As a result, the system can help reduce unnecessary film usage while maintaining secure containment. However, the correct film, pre-stretch ratio, and wrap settings still depend on the product and shipping environment.
The 2100-SRT provides machine-controlled wrapping while allowing the operator to manage pallet loading, film attachment, and film cutting. Therefore, it offers a practical balance between productivity, flexibility, and equipment investment.
For many facilities, semi-automatic operation significantly improves consistency compared with hand wrapping. Additionally, stored wrap programs make it easier to repeat settings across operators and shifts.
Facilities evaluating future automation can review Ameripak’s comparison of semi-automatic and automatic stretch wrappers.
Ameripak is a Cousins Packaging Master Distributor, giving customers access to the Cousins equipment line with experienced application guidance and ongoing support. Instead of simply selecting a machine from a catalog, customers receive help matching the wrapper and available options to their products, pallet dimensions, loading methods, production volume, and containment goals.
As a result, customers can purchase with greater confidence that Ameripak has properly configured the equipment for their application. Moreover, Ameripak serves as a knowledgeable point of contact before, during, and after the purchase.
Advantages of purchasing Cousins equipment through Ameripak include:
Furthermore, Ameripak can support the complete wrapping application rather than supplying only the machine. Therefore, customers have one experienced resource for equipment, stretch film, parts, service, and future system improvements.
Available options may include:
Because applications differ, buyers should select options according to pallet dimensions, loading method, operating temperature, film requirements, and production goals. Therefore, an application review can help prevent unnecessary features or an incomplete machine configuration.
The Cousins 2100-SRT pallet wrapper is well suited for:
For example, the programmable controls can accommodate stable boxed loads, mixed products, and pallets requiring additional reinforcement. Similarly, adjustable film force helps protect lightweight products because excessive tension could damage them.
The 2100-SRT combines low-profile loading, powered pre-stretch technology, programmable controls, and heavy-duty construction. Moreover, its three stored wrap programs make it easier to maintain consistent results across different products and operators.
In addition, available options allow the machine to address specialized loading, environmental, weighing, and containment requirements. Overall, the Cousins 2100-SRT provides a proven wrapping platform for operations focused on productivity, film efficiency, and dependable load containment.
