LYBRA OPRS: Technology, Automation and Load Stability in One Compact Solution
Introduced at Interpack 2026, LYBRA OPRS is Atlanta Stretch's new semi-automatic rotary arm wrapping machine, designed to complete the company's rotary arm range.
Engineered to combine the industry's most advanced load stabilization technologies within a lightweight and compact structure, LYBRA OPRS demonstrates how a space-saving machine can deliver automation, precise stretch film control and advanced load reinforcement systems in one integrated solution.
By combining the OPRS pre-stretch carriage, the ARYA automatic film attachment and cutting system, and the Roping System, LYBRA OPRS provides precise film tension control, automated wrapping cycle management and targeted load reinforcement. The result is a compact solution designed for companies seeking reliability, operational continuity and optimized film consumption.
A Compact Solution for Superior Load Stabilization
In end-of-line packaging, load stability plays a crucial role in ensuring safe handling and preserving product integrity throughout transportation and storage.
LYBRA OPRS has been developed to integrate all the technologies required to achieve this objective within a single machine, offering a lightweight, compact solution that can be easily integrated into a wide variety of production environments.
Specifically designed for unstable or heavy loads, its rotary arm architecture eliminates weight limitations by keeping the pallet stationary throughout the wrapping cycle, ensuring consistently high stabilization performance regardless of load weight.
OPRS Carriage: Advanced Film Tension Control
One of LYBRA OPRS's defining features is the OPRS pre-stretch carriage, developed to ensure precise and consistent film tension throughout every stage of the wrapping cycle.
Its motorized pre-stretch system, combined with fully programmable wrapping parameters, allows the stretch film to adapt to the specific characteristics of each load, improving load containment while maintaining consistent wrapping quality.
This approach optimizes stretch film consumption, enhances pallet stability and provides complete control over the wrapping process.
ARYA: Wrapping Cycle Automation
LYBRA OPRS also incorporates ARYA, Atlanta Stretch's automatic film attachment and cutting system.
ARYA automates two of the most critical stages of the wrapping cycle: attaching the stretch film at the beginning of the cycle and cutting it automatically once wrapping has been completed.
By eliminating these manual operations, the entire wrapping process becomes smoother, more consistent and more efficient.
Once the pallet has been positioned and the cycle started, the system automatically manages every phase of the wrapping process, simplifying daily operations, improving operational continuity and allowing operators to focus on other value-added activities.
Roping System: Targeted Reinforcement Where the Load Needs It Most
Per incrementare ulteriormente la stabilità del pallet, LYBRA OPRS può integrare l’opzione di cordonatura, o roping system.
Questo sistema riduce la larghezza del film durante l'avvolgimento creando un rinforzo a corda nei punti più critici del carico. Questo rinforzo migliora l'ancoraggio tra pallet di legno e prodotto nei giri bassi, e se applicato sull’altezza contribuisce ad aumentarne la stabilità dell’intero carico durante le fasi di movimentazione e trasporto.
Integrato all'interno di un unico sistema insieme al carrello OPRS e al sistema ARYA, il sistema di cordonatura rappresenta un ulteriore supporto alla stabilizzazione del carico, intervenendo esattamente dove è necessario.
To further increase pallet stability, LYBRA OPRS can also be equipped with the optional Roping System.
During wrapping, the system reduces the width of the stretch film, transforming it into a reinforced rope that strengthens the most critical areas of the load.
Applied at the base of the pallet, it improves the connection between the wooden pallet and the product. When applied along the height of the load, it increases overall pallet stability, helping the load better withstand the stresses generated during handling and transportation.
Working alongside the OPRS carriage and the ARYA system, the Roping System provides an additional level of load reinforcement, delivering targeted stabilization exactly where it is needed.
Three Technologies Combined in an Entry-Level Rotary Arm Wrapper
The true strength of LYBRA OPRS lies in its ability to integrate three complementary technologies into a single compact machine.
The precise film tension control provided by the OPRS carriage, the wrapping cycle automation delivered by ARYA, and the targeted load reinforcement achieved through the Roping System work together to improve load stabilization while simplifying wrapping operations.
With LYBRA OPRS, Atlanta Stretch takes another step forward in the evolution of end-of-line packaging solutions, offering a compact rotary arm wrapper that combines automation, advanced film management and superior load stability within a single integrated solution.
