Tex-Seal ® Rubber Bale Wrapper

The Tex-Seal ® rubber bale wrapper is designed and manufactured by J & J Manufacturing company of Beaumont, Texas. J&J has been a leader in the rubber industry since 1929, when they first patented the bale wrapper.

The new Tex-Seal II® represents the latest in wrapping technology with a touch screen Allen Bradley Panel View1000 to monitor the wrapper and diagnose problems.

For greater efficiency and safety, the Tex-Seal II® wrapper now seals with a thermal impulse system. Rather than staying hot all the time, thermal impulse applies heat -enough to melt and seal - only momentarily. Production efficiency increases, because the seal begins cooling and forming before the sealing jaws open. The process is safer, too, because by the time the jaws open, the sealing elements are cool to the touch. As a further safety improvement, thermal impulse cuts the film with a sealing element, no sharp wire or knife needed.
