Abstract
A monitoring system for wrapping a pallet with a pallet wrapping system, at least two encoders, and a control box. The pallet wrapping system has a spool that dispenses stretch film and a pre-stretch machine operably coupled to the pallet wrapping system and configured to elongate the stretch film. The at least two encoders are affixed to the pre-stretch machine. A first of the at least two encoders is configured to measure a length of stretch film entering the pre-stretch machine and a second is configured to measure a length of stretch film exiting the pre-stretch machine. The control box is communicatively coupled to the at least two encoders and configured to collect data regarding the pallet wrapping system and transmit the data over a wireless connection to a central processor configured to gather the data.
