Various embodiments of the present disclosure provide a strapping tool configured to tension metal strap around a load and, after tensioning, attach overlapping portions of the strap to one another by cutting notches into a seal element positioned around the overlapping portions of the strap and into the overlapping portions of the strap themselves.

Strapping tool

The present disclosure provides a strapping apparatus for strapping articles to be packaged with a strapping band. The strapping apparatus includes a band detection device configured to indicate that the band is in a non-positionally correct and/or a positionally correct position, depending on the embodiment.

Strapping apparatus having a tensioning device

In the case of a strapping apparatus for strapping articles to be packaged with a strapping band, said apparatus having a tensioning device for applying a band tension to a loop of a strapping band, wherein the tensioning device is provided with a tensioning element that is provided to apply a band tension and to engage in the strapping band and is drivable in rotation, and having a connecting device for creating a permanent connection, in particular a welded connection at two regions, located one on top of the other, of the loop of the strapping band, a possibility is intended to be created by way of which damage to articles to be packaged that is attributable to the tensioning operation, and non-uniform applications of tensile stress to a band loop are avoided or at least reduced. For this purpose an actuating element for the tensioning device is proposed, with which different rotational speeds of the tensioning element are achievable, by way of different intensities of actuation of the actuating element, during the operation of tensioning the strapping band.
