Abstract
An apparatus for wrapping a load, comprising: a self-balancing paper-based packaging material dispenser configured to dispense paper-based packaging material to the load, the self-balancing paper-based packaging material dispenser including an exit point configured to tilt to compensate for a force imbalance between opposing edges of a web of the paper-based packaging material extending between the load and the exit point of the self-balancing paper-based packaging material dispenser; and a rotational drive configured to generate relative rotation between the self-balancing paper-based packaging material dispenser and the load about an axis of rotation.
