Abstract
A system for compressing and strapping loads with press-type strapping machines having improved platen control is provided. The system includes first and second strapping machines each configured to compress and strap a load. The first strapping machine applies a compressive force to the load until a target compressive force is reached and then straps the load. The second strapping machine compresses the load until the height of the load is substantially the same as the height of the load when the first strapping machine strapped the load. The second strapping machine then straps the load. The system ensures the height of the load is substantially the same during each strapping operation.
