Reliability is not only an important aspect of interpersonal relationships, it is also essential in daily production operations. A machine that doesn't function reliably can result in disastrous costs and quickly bring production to a halt. At Mosca, we value reliability in human relationships as much as we do in our machines that operate with minimum downtime and maximum process reliability – no matter how high the product output. Reliability also stands for clearly understanding the needs of others in order to respond accordingly. At Mosca, this means that we work closely with our target industries to supply machines that are tailored to the specific needs of each customer. As a technology leader, we offer a wide range of models for the printing industry and related sectors; from simple, easy-to-operate machines for small runs to fully-automated high-end systems.

For better handling and shipping, newspapers, magazines, printed products and other graphic merchandise are strapped and thus bundled after production. However, the stacks have to be compressed before strapping in order to prevent air from slowly escaping from the stacked products during transport and thus loosening the strapping. No problem for our machines - depending on the model, both steps are even done fully automatically. If required, a compact machine combination can also apply cross strapping in a single operation without turning the product – quickly and with maximum process reliability. This is an enormous advantage, especially in industries with high throughput.

The following slider displays our range of machines perfectly matching the demands of the newspaper and graphics industry:

With our innovative automatic strapping machines, MOSCA offers all customers, who do not want to give up high quality at an attractive price in the entry-level segment, a reliable, stable and user-friendly strapping solution.

The machines of the Evolution SoniXs series use our innovative SoniXs ultrasonic sealing technology for sturdy joining the two strap ends. This unique, highly efficient process is ready for use at any times. Ultrasonic technology requires no warm-up phase, which saves time and money. The sealing unit only consumes energy when it is actually needed. No fumes are produced during the strapping process, which prevents sensitive products from being affected. Stability at the joints is up to 85% of the tensile strength of the strapping material used, making it extremely secure.

Specialized machine control, Mosca-designed software, SoniXs sealing technology and user-friendly interfaces – Mosca’s fully automatic high-performance machines SoniXs TR-Connect and SoniXs TRI-Connect meet the highest production demands in the newspaper and printing industry and are equipped for the future needs of Industry 4.0. 

The clou: cross strapping without package turning with the tandem machine SoniXs TAI-Connect.

For securing stacked print products on pallets and thus safely fixing them for transport, our product portfolio offers a versatile range of fully automatic pallet strapping machines. Particularly sensitive goods, as they often can be found in the newspaper and graphics industry, can additionally be protected against external influences such as dirt, moisture or impact by our stretch film wrapping systems and further protecting options such as edge protection feeders or cover sheet applicators.

Our machines often combine several work steps in one single device and are therefore particularly efficient, user-friendly and space-saving. Our pallet packing presses, for example, compress and strap the printed products in one production step. Especially for our customers who have little space available, our machinery portfolio includes a combination device combining pallet strapping and subsequent wrapping of the pallet with stretch film in one single machine - a real alternative to space-consuming production lines. All of our fully automatic pallet strapping systems can be easily integrated into existing production lines or equipped with upstream and downstream conveyor technology.
