ECOBAND-S Banding Machine for Paper & OPP, 12mm

ECOBAND-S compact banding machine for paper and OPP bands

The ECOBAND-S is a compact banding machine designed for use on a packing table. Simply place your stack or package inside the frame, and the machine automatically applies a band, tightens it, seals it, and trims the band. This is the smallest banding machine we offer, weighing 18 kg and taking up about as much space as a standard printer.

The frame opening measures 220 × 170 mm, and the minimum product width is 30 mm. This makes it ideal for leaflets, folded print materials, food trays, small boxes, and part bundles—not suitable for pallets or large cartons.

The machine uses 12 mm wide paper or OPP bands that are 0.12 mm thick, on rolls with a 40 mm core and a maximum outer diameter of 160 mm. Paper bands are natural, printable, and can be recycled with paper waste, while OPP film bands keep the contents visible.

The ECOBAND-S can apply 26 bands per minute, and the band tension is adjustable up to 5 kg, so you can secure soft stacks without damaging them. All settings are managed via the touch screen. The machine operates on a standard power outlet: 110 V or 220 V, 50–60 Hz, 0.25 kW.

Typical applications for the ECOBAND-S

The ECOBAND-S is used in printing, pharmaceutical, food, logistics, and retail sectors for bundling small, delicate items. Common uses include banding leaflets, folded print products, labels, envelopes, business cards, premium prints, banknotes, medicine boxes, CDs, and small cartons. It’s perfect for work areas where gentle handling is important and where products need to stay visible or grouped for sale or further processing.

This banding machine is typically set up at the end of a packing table or next to a cutter or folder. It is used for bundling counted sets, grouping items for retail, or preparing products for further handling. Banding is a cleaner alternative to rubber bands, shrink wrap, or blister packs, helping reduce packaging waste and keeping products looking professional.

• Fits right on your packing table. Measures 380 × 280 × 415 mm and weighs 18 kg, with the table surface 215 mm above the bench. No stand, no conveyor, no air required.
• Uses minimal material per bundle. Applies a 12 mm band instead of a strap, box, or film—keeps stacks secure and products visible.
• Works with paper or OPP film bands. Choose paper for a natural appearance and easy recycling, or OPP film for extra strength and clarity.
• Handles 26 bands per minute. Fast enough for continuous use at a packing station.
• Consistent tension every cycle. Set your preferred tension on the touchscreen, up to 5 kg.
• All controls on one screen. Adjustments are made using the touch screen, so a new operator can learn to use the banding machine in just a few minutes.

How to operate the ECOBAND-S banding machine

1. Place a 12 mm wide paper or OPP band coil on the holder and feed the band into the banding machine.
2. Turn on the banding machine and use the touch screen to set band tension and other parameters.
3. Position your stack or pack inside the frame, making sure it is aligned with the guide.
4. Start the cycle. The banding machine wraps the band around the pack, applies tension, heat-seals, and cuts the band.
5. Remove the finished bundle and insert the next item.

Settings and maintenance

• Band tension. Set the tension on the touch screen, up to 5 kg. Use less tension for delicate or lightweight items, more for firm stacks.
• Band. Use paper or OPP film, 12 mm wide and 0.12 mm thick. The coil should have a 40 mm core and an outer diameter up to 160 mm.
• Weld. The band is sealed with heat. If the band separates, first check the band quality and the weld temperature.
• Maintenance. Always turn off the banding machine before servicing. Keep the band path and frame clear of paper dust and film debris.

Operating the ECOBAND-S banding machine

The operator places the stack or bundle inside the frame and aligns it with the guide. The touch screen makes it easy to switch jobs and train new users quickly.

ECOBAND-S banding machine: selection and integration

Before selecting this banding machine, make sure your products fit within the frame opening and that the banding material matches your needs. For soft or uneven stacks, test the band tension to prevent crushing or slipping. If you plan to use the machine in a production line, check your available table space and workflow for loading and unloading products.

Frequent issues include using bands that are too wide or thick, overloading the frame, or setting the tension too high for fragile items. To minimize downtime, keep compatible bands in stock and clean the banding machine regularly.
