ABSTRACT:
A conveyor for an article extends between two parallel rolls of stretch film (22, 22') to a turntable (40). The sheets of stretch film (24, 24') on the two rolls are joined together to form a curtain of stretch film. The article is brought into contact with the curtain and the sheets of film are joined together to form a sleeve out of the curtain around the article, thus securing the sheets to the article. The turntable is then rotated, thus winding the sheets several turns around the article. The sheets are then joined to form a new curtain of stretch film, after which the sheets are severed, releasing the wrapped article from this curtain.
