Keepway Launches M-Series Pallet Wrapping Revolution: Cut Labor Costs by 50% with Smart Dock-Access Design
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
CHICAGO, August 19, 2025 – keepway today unveiled its breakthrough M-Series Semi-Auto Pallet Wrapper, engineered to solve dock-space constraints and labor shortages plaguing 89% of North American warehouses (PMMI 2025 Report). The patent-pending "M-frame" design enables direct forklift access from both front and rear – eliminating ramps and specialized pallets while slashing loading time by 70% compared to conventional turntable models 47.
The Productivity Crisis in Modern Warehousing
With e-commerce volumes growing 23% YoY, fulfillment centers face:
$38K/month losses from packaging bottlenecks (Modern Materials Handling 2025)
32% higher film costs due to inconsistent manual stretching
Safety violations rising 15% from rushed palletizing
Traditional wrappers require 2+ operators for loading/offloading – a critical pain point addressed by LogiWrap’s M-Series. Its low-profile steel frame (height: 98mm) allows standard pallet jacks to load directly onto the 1,650mm diameter turntable, even in narrow second-floor warehouses where concrete foundations are impossible 47.
Engineering Breakthroughs Driving ROI
✅ IntelliStretch™ Film System
300% pre-stretch capability – reduces film consumption by 55% vs. manual wrapping 2
Auto film cutting/clamping – enables true hands-free operation (patent pending #US2025/0456321)
Dynamic tension control – maintains consistent force for fragile or irregular loads
✅ Industrial-Grade Durability
2,000kg max load capacity – reinforced gear ring bearings prevent deformation 3
IP54-rated electronics – withstands cold chain/dusty environments
5-year structural warranty – longest in class
✅ Smart Control Center
PLC with 7" HMI touchscreen – program 8+ wrap patterns (e.g., top reinforcement, honeycomb weave)
IoT-ready – remote diagnostics via LogiWrap Connect app
One-touch calibration – adapts to load height automatically using photoelectric sensors 3
