Mosca – your system supplier for strapping
applications

Construction materials, such as timber, are usually heavy,often bulky and sharp-edged. Stable strapping solutions
that can withstand heavy loads in the long term are needed
to guarantee reliable securing of goods for transport.
In combination with our PP strapping for small bundle
products and PET for particularly robust products, ourmachines are perfectly suited for use in the timber industry:
stable strapping with maximum availability. To ensure thatyour timber products arrive at your customers in the best
condition, we offer a package of options for our machinesthat are specially tailored to the timber industry.

At Mosca we rely on the philosophy that the one-stop shop
principle brings about a lot of advantages for our customers. We ensure the longevity of our machines throughregular maintenance.

On the following pages there is an overview of our range ofmachines for the timber industry. We offer a consultative
approach to help you find the perfect solution for yourapplication as a complete package, including suitable strapping materials and a flexible maintenance offering.

As part of our ONE Service concept we offer you a global
service network that is unique in the industry. More than
100 Mosca service technicians and over 30 additional
specialists employed by partners all over the world ensurethat our strapping machines run perfectly at every location.
A central system across countries incorporates information
on machines and maintenance intervals. This means we canwork closely with you to significantly extend the service lifeof your machines. It also enables preventive maintenanceto avoid breakdowns by using data evaluation.
But ONE Service goes far beyond maintenance and repair.
It includes installations, relocations, technical training, andtechnical expert meetings focusing on the potential tooptimize strapping machines. Our focus is always on yourwishes and individual requirements. We work together withyou to develop the best possible strapping solution.
In addition to strapping machines and their maintenance,
we attach high priority to the plastic strapping material
made from Polypropylene (PP) and Polyester (PET). Since2008 we have produced strap in one of the most modern
fully automatic plants in Europe.

Mosca strapping machines for the timber industry are equipped with different types of sealing units:
the state-of-the-art Standard 6 sealer is available both with Mosca’s SoniXs ultrasonic system as wellas with a temperature-controlled heat-sealing unit. For bigger and heavier products we use our KSR
sealing unit, the HL-sealing unit or the SoniXs sealing unit for pallet strapping applications.
Mosca strapping machines are available in many different frame sizes. For detailed information about
all individual specifications, please refer to our sales staff or the technical data sheets on our website
www.mosca.com.

BPM

The BPM (Bundles per Minute) factor indicates the maximum number of single or double strapped
products per minute. It depends on several criteria such as frame size, conveying speed, strap width,
product size and additional options.

Level of Automation

10FThe product is transported and strapped by the strapping system’s integral conveyors and controls
without any operator involvement, or in some cases by signal exchange with an external controller.

ARequires an operator to feed the product into the strapping machine and to release the fully automatic
strapping cycle via foot pedal, operator panel or light sensor.
