BXT2-19 Battery Powered Strapping Tool
Battery operated tools have made life easier for tool operators in the packaging industries. They are the fastest and most efficient tools in the market and very productive. Most popular manufactures like Fromm, Signode and Orgapack manufacture these tools using cutting edge technology and that makes it all the more simpler. One such tool is the BXT2-19, an efficient battery powered strapping tool used for poly strapping.
The BXT2-19 comes with two lithium ion batteries and a charger. It has 18V Bosch batteries which is very powerful and can run 5/8” or ¾” PET strapping. The guides can be adjusted to suit the kind of application being used. The tool can pre-set tension and then the automation pulls the strapping tight, and immediately welds and cuts.
Specification
- Strap Qualities: Polyester (PET) / Polypropylene (PP)
- Strap Dimensions: 5/8”-3/4″ x .016 – .041”
- Maximum Tension: 880 pounds
- Sealing Type: Friction-weld sealing
- Weight: 9.3 pounds (including battery)
After the welding is done, the tool counts down to zero and when it gets to zero, it beeps and the weld has cooled. This is a very simple operation and thus application gets done efficiently and productively. As with all Signode tools, the BXT2-19 is also ergonomically designed and operator friendly. This is also the reason why this tool became popular in a short time and stands out among its competitors.
The BXT2-19 is a very balanced tool in the market. It has a good grip on the handle and the operator can easily operate the tool without worrying if it would tip forward or backward during the tensioning and sealing operations. The BXT2 series from Signode is very popular because of the easy of use and the digital interface.
These tools are also ideal for tight or difficult strapping positions and can be operated in many different positions like upside down, horizontal or vertical depending on where the friction weld seal needs to be placed. Moreover, depending on the application, the tensioning levels can be preprogrammed before every strapping series. The friction weld seal is also a good feature in this tool as it eliminates the use of metal seals. Metal seals are not only expensive but also leaves marks on packaged goods.
The BXT2-19 is a tool that accommodates several types of loads from light to heavy duty and the tensioning force can be anywhere in the range of 88 pounds to 880 pounds and all of this can also be attributed to the brushless motor.
