2004 - Mosca Gerd Mosca RO- Strapping Machine

About this machine

This Mosca RO- is a strapping machine — sometimes referred to as a banding machine — manufactured by Gerd Mosca in 2004 and currently located in Germany. Strapping machines are used to secure, bundle, or unitise packages and products with a tensioned strap or tape, and are a staple of packaging lines across logistics, manufacturing, and distribution. Mosca is a well-established name in industrial strapping technology, known for producing robust, high-throughput packaging equipment used in industries ranging from print and paper to food and general goods.

This used machine is built around direct-drive DC motor technology, described as wear-free, and features frequency-controlled, hinged direct-drive transport systems. This combination is designed to reduce mechanical wear and maintenance requirements while maintaining consistent performance. Control is handled by a Siemens PLC with a touch panel interface that provides optical operator guidance and displays machine functions including counter readings and fault messages. Strapping distances are adjustable directly through the touch panel, allowing the machine to be adapted to different product formats without manual mechanical intervention.

Welding is performed by a hot-wedge system with electronic heating regulation operating in 24 V technology, offering controlled and repeatable sealing. The machine features fully automatic tape threading, a tape-end sensor with tape-remnant ejection, and automatic belt ring ejection in the event of false triggering — all contributing to reduced operator intervention and minimised downtime. The belt guide system is described as wear-free and positively controlled. The machine is configured for PP tape in a 12 mm width.

The working height of the roller table is adjustable across a range of 680 mm to 800 mm, enabling the machine to be integrated into processing lines at varying conveyor heights. Potential-free contacts are provided for communication with upstream and downstream equipment, confirming the machine's suitability for inline integration. Motor-driven roller infeed and outfeed tables are included with this listing, making it ready to be incorporated into an existing or new packaging line.
