Step-by-Step Guide to Using Air Column Rolls


Step-by-Step Guide to Using Air Column Rolls

1. Preparation

  • Clean Workspace: Ensure the packaging area is free from sharp objects that could puncture the film.
  • Select the Right Size: Choose an air column roll that matches the dimensions of your product.

2. Inflation

  • Equipment Needed: Use a hand pump, air compressor, or specialized air column machine.
  • Inflation Pressure: Maintain pressure between 0.06 to 0.08 MPa to prevent over-inflation.
  • Inflation Process:

    Insert the pump nozzle into the air valve.

    Inflate until the columns are firm but not over-tight.

    Machine will seal the valve to prevent air leakage.

3. Wrapping the Product

  • Cut to Size: Trim the inflated roll to the desired length.
  • Wrap Securely: Encase the product, ensuring all sides are protected.
  • Seal the Package: Use adhesive tape or straps to secure the wrapped product.

4. Final Packaging

  • Boxing: Place the wrapped item into a shipping box.
  • Void Filling: Use additional air column cushions to fill any empty spaces, preventing movement during transit.

Tips for Optimal Use

  • Avoid Sharp Objects: Keep the packaging area free from sharp tools to prevent punctures.
  • Monitor Inflation: Do not over-inflate, as excessive pressure can cause the columns to burst.
