1. What Is REEMAN's New Automated Pallet Wrapping & Handling Workstation?
The REEMAN Ramp-Free Automated Pallet Wrapping & Handling Workstation is a planned integrated packaging and intralogistics solution that combines two industrial functions:
Autonomous pallet transportation and automatic pallet stretch wrapping.
Instead of purchasing a forklift and packaging machine as entirely separate systems, manufacturers will be able to evaluate a coordinated workstation designed around both processes.
The proposed workstation uses a raised circular turntable without a conventional loading ramp. Its design is being developed for compatibility with selected REEMAN autonomous forklift configurations, including the MINI Autonomous Forklift and Rhino Autonomous Stacker Forklift.
The goal is to provide factories with a more compact, standardized alternative to individually engineered pallet wrapping automation projects.

2. Why Is REEMAN Developing a Ramp-Free Pallet Wrapping Workstation?
Traditional pallet wrapping equipment often uses a floor-level or elevated turntable. Some configurations require an approach ramp to allow pallet jacks or other handling equipment to reach the wrapping platform.
For factories with limited operating space, such ramps may create additional layout requirements.
They can also introduce an inclined transition that material-handling equipment must negotiate when carrying a load.
REEMAN's new workstation takes a different approach.
Elevated Circular Turntable Instead of an Approach Ramp
The planned solution adopts a raised circular turntable structure designed around direct pallet handling by a compatible autonomous forklift.
Rather than requiring the robot to drive a loaded pallet up an inclined ramp, the intended design allows the forklift to approach the workstation, position its forks, and transfer the pallet to the wrapping platform.
The workstation's geometry must provide suitable clearance for the forks, supporting structures, and robot chassis.
This design targets three important benefits.
More Efficient Use of Factory Space
Removing the conventional loading ramp can reduce the floor area required for the approach structure, potentially making the workstation easier to integrate into compact production and packaging areas.
Simplified Pallet Transfer Routes
The forklift does not need to follow an inclined ramp to reach the turntable. The transfer process is instead designed around controlled fork positioning, lifting, and placement.
Reduced Exposure to Ramp-Related Handling Risks
Eliminating the inclined approach removes the need for a loaded autonomous forklift to negotiate that particular ramp transition.
Overall machine safety still depends on the completed mechanical design, pallet stability, sensing systems, and validated safety controls.
The result is a workstation concept focused on compact installation, automated pallet handling, and practical factory integration.
3. How Will the Automated Pallet Wrapping Workstation Operate?
REEMAN's planned workstation is intended to connect autonomous forklift transportation with the wrapping machine's operating sequence.
The complete workflow can be divided into seven stages.
| Stage | Planned Automated Operation |
|---|---|
| 01. Pallet pickup | The autonomous forklift approaches the pickup point, aligns with the pallet, and lifts it. |
| 02. Autonomous transport | The forklift carries the pallet to the wrapping workstation. |
| 03. Turntable placement | The forklift positions and lowers the pallet onto the circular turntable. |
| 04. Wrapping activation | After the forklift clears the working area and the required conditions are met, the wrapping machine begins its programmed cycle. |
| 05. Automatic wrapping | The packaging machine rotates the pallet and applies stretch film. |
| 06. Completion feedback | Once wrapping is finished and the equipment reaches a safe pickup state, a completion signal is provided. |
| 07. Finished-pallet delivery | The forklift collects the wrapped pallet and transports it to the designated downstream location. |
Complete Workflow:
Automatic Pallet Pickup → Autonomous Transport → Ramp-Free Turntable Placement → Automatic Stretch Wrapping → Completion Confirmation → Finished-Pallet Collection → Autonomous Delivery
This planned operating sequence is designed to reduce manual coordination between packaging equipment and pallet transportation.
The final workflow and production cycle time will depend on the released workstation configuration and the customer's factory layout.
4. Which REEMAN Autonomous Forklifts Will Be Compatible?
The initial workstation design is being developed around selected REEMAN autonomous forklift models, including MINI and Rhino.
These two product families offer different mechanical characteristics and lifting capabilities, allowing the workstation concept to be evaluated for different factory applications.
REEMAN MINI Autonomous Forklift
The MINI Autonomous Forklift is designed for automated pallet transportation in factories and warehouses, including environments with relatively narrow operating spaces.
It supports autonomous navigation, pallet pickup, and point-to-point material handling.
For the planned workstation, the MINI is one of the intended forklift configurations to be evaluated with the ramp-free wrapping platform.
REEMAN Rhino Autonomous Stacker Forklift
The Rhino Autonomous Stacker Forklift provides a different lifting and handling configuration for industrial pallet operations.
It is another intended model for the new workstation concept.
Compatibility will depend on the specific Rhino configuration, fork geometry, pallet dimensions, turntable height, and surrounding equipment clearances.
Why Offer Different Forklift Configurations?
Factories do not all use identical pallets, transportation routes, or packaging layouts.
A standardized workstation platform with compatible forklift options can help REEMAN address different material-handling requirements without treating every packaging project as an entirely new system.
However, MINI and Rhino should be understood as intended compatible product families, not a guarantee that every model variant can operate with the same workstation without mechanical verification.
5. How Will the Autonomous Forklift Communicate With the Wrapping Machine?
Machine-to-machine communication is essential for connecting pallet transportation and automatic wrapping.
The forklift must know when a pallet can be delivered or collected, while the wrapping machine must know when loading is complete and its operating area is clear.
REEMAN has already demonstrated this type of integration in previous autonomous forklift and stretch wrapping applications.
Technology Demonstrated in Existing REEMAN Projects
In a previously published Ironhide Autonomous Forklift application, REEMAN used external wireless communication modules to exchange commands and equipment-status information between the forklift and a turntable stretch wrapper.
Possible equipment-side connection interfaces included I/O, RS485, Ethernet, and CAN, depending on the machine controller.
Wireless communication options included LoRa and Wi-Fi.
The wrapping machine retained responsibility for its own wrapping program, turntable rotation, and film separation.
This distinction is important:
The autonomous forklift handles pallet transportation. The wrapping machine handles packaging. The communication system coordinates task execution between the two.
The new standardized workstation is intended to build on REEMAN's existing experience with this type of equipment integration.
The exact communication interfaces and standard hardware supplied with the November 2026 product will be defined in the final configuration.
6. What Makes a Standardized Workstation Different From a Customized Automation Project?
Traditional industrial automation projects frequently involve selecting equipment from different suppliers, developing communication interfaces, adjusting mechanical layouts, and coordinating several installation teams.
A standardized workstation aims to simplify this process by bringing compatible equipment into a repeatable product configuration.
| Comparison | Separately Integrated Equipment | REEMAN Planned Standardized Workstation |
|---|---|---|
| Equipment selection | Forklift and wrapper selected separately | Coordinated forklift and wrapping-machine combination |
| Mechanical layout | Designed independently for each installation | Standard ramp-free circular turntable concept |
| Communication | Integration requirements established between separate systems | Planned coordinated task communication |
| Project scope | Multiple equipment and integration packages | Combined workstation product concept |
| Price reference | Calculated from separate project quotations | Planned standard price of RMB 118,000 |
| Deployment | Site-specific integration and commissioning | Standard product approach with site-specific installation |
| Expansion | Depends on the original system architecture | Intended to form part of a future workstation product family |
Standardization does not eliminate site preparation or commissioning.
Each installation still requires checks of equipment clearances, pallet specifications, operating routes, safety conditions, and communication interfaces.
The value of standardization is the opportunity to reduce repeated engineering work and simplify how customers evaluate an integrated solution.
7. How Much Will REEMAN's Automated Pallet Wrapping Workstation Cost in 2026?
REEMAN plans to offer the new Ramp-Free Automated Pallet Wrapping & Handling Workstation at a standard price of RMB 118,000, with its introduction planned for November 2026.
The pricing strategy is designed around a combined autonomous forklift and stretch wrapping equipment solution.
For buyers, this provides a clear initial price reference instead of requiring them to estimate the cost of multiple independent machines before discussing system integration.
Planned Pricing Information
| Cost Item | Information |
|---|---|
| Standard workstation price | RMB 118,000 |
| Currency | Chinese Yuan (CNY) |
| Product concept | Autonomous forklift and automatic stretch wrapping machine combination |
| Assembly | Separately charged |
| On-site deployment | Separately charged |
| Final supplied configuration | To be specified in the product quotation |
| International shipping and import costs | To be addressed in export quotations |
The RMB 118,000 figure is the planned standard quotation, not an independently verified total installed project cost.
Customers should evaluate the final equipment list, assembly requirements, commissioning, transportation, and any site-specific integration work when calculating their complete investment.
8. What Are the Main Benefits for Manufacturers and Warehouses?
Reduced Dependence on Manual Pallet Transportation
A conventional wrapping machine may automate the packaging operation while still requiring forklift operators to load and collect pallets.
Integrating an autonomous forklift can reduce these repetitive transport and transfer tasks.
Better Coordination Between Packaging and Logistics
The workstation concept connects packaging status with forklift task execution.
Rather than relying solely on an operator to observe when wrapping is finished, the system is intended to exchange equipment status and trigger the next handling step.
More Compact Packaging Areas
The ramp-free circular turntable design can reduce the need for an inclined access structure.
This may be particularly useful in manufacturing facilities where packaging equipment is positioned near production lines, storage areas, or other machinery.
More Predictable Equipment Procurement
Offering the wrapping machine and autonomous forklift as a combined solution gives buyers a clearer starting point for product selection and budgeting.
A Foundation for Future Automation
The workstation is intended to become the first product in a broader REEMAN standardized packaging and material-handling workstation family.
This creates an opportunity for factories to extend automation beyond a single packaging operation as additional products are developed.
9. Which Industries Can Benefit From Automated Pallet Wrapping and Handling?
The upcoming solution is intended for industries that regularly wrap and transport palletized goods.
| Industry | Potential Application |
|---|---|
| Electronics manufacturing | Wrapped pallet transportation between production and warehouse areas |
| Automotive components | Packaging and delivery of palletized parts |
| Machinery manufacturing | End-of-line packaging of industrial materials |
| Consumer goods | Automatic wrapping and finished-goods movement |
| Chemical and industrial materials | Palletized product packaging and internal transport |
| Warehousing and distribution | Pallet wrapping before storage or dispatch |
| Packaging operations | Connecting automatic stretch wrapping with autonomous transportation |
Suitability depends on the actual load weight, pallet structure, wrapping requirements, vehicle access, and operating environment.
10. What Should Factories Check Before Installing a Ramp-Free Wrapping Workstation?
The absence of a loading ramp does not mean that every factory layout or pallet type is automatically compatible.
Several engineering conditions must be evaluated before deployment.
| Assessment Area | What Needs to Be Checked |
|---|---|
| Pallets and loads | Pallet dimensions, fork openings, total weight, and load stability |
| Forklift compatibility | Fork geometry, lifting range, chassis clearance, and approach direction |
| Wrapping equipment | Turntable height, pallet support, wrapping diameter, and film requirements |
| Factory layout | Available operating area, travel route, floor conditions, and access clearance |
| Communication | Controller signals, operating permissions, completion feedback, and fault handling |
| Safety | Access control, emergency stops, machine guarding, and operational interlocks |
The raised platform must be mechanically compatible with both the handling equipment and the pallet.
The wrapping machine must also remain protected against unintended forklift entry while the turntable is operating.
These checks are important for achieving reliable, repeatable automated operation.
11. How Can Buyers Evaluate the Return on Investment?
An automated wrapping and handling workstation can reduce manual forklift movements and improve coordination between packaging and internal logistics.
However, the financial return depends on each facility's operating conditions.
The main variables include daily pallet volume, transport distance, operating shifts, labor costs, equipment utilization, and ongoing maintenance expenses.
A basic investment calculation is:
Simple Payback Period = Total Project Investment ÷ Annual Net Savings
Annual net savings may include labor costs genuinely avoided and other measurable operating benefits, less the additional annual operating expenses.
For REEMAN's planned workstation, the RMB 118,000 price provides a starting reference for the equipment budget.
Installation and any other project-specific costs must be included in the complete investment figure.
The actual payback period should be calculated using the customer's operating data rather than assuming that every automated wrapping cycle represents an equivalent amount of labor savings.
12. REEMAN's Future Plan: From Pallet Wrapping to Complete Automated Packaging Workstations
The Ramp-Free Automated Pallet Wrapping & Handling Workstation is planned as the first step in a broader standardized product strategy.
REEMAN is also considering additional workstations for other industrial packaging and logistics operations.
Automated Palletizing Workstation
Future palletizing workstations could focus on arranging and stacking products onto pallets before transportation or wrapping.
Warehouse Packing Workstation
Warehouse packing workstations could address further packaging and handling activities in storage and distribution environments.
Integrated Packaging and Palletizing Solutions
Over time, REEMAN aims to connect packing, palletizing, automatic wrapping, and material transportation into a more complete range of standardized industrial workstation solutions.
These are future product development directions rather than products confirmed for the November 2026 launch.
The long-term goal is to help industrial customers automate more stages of their production and logistics processes using coordinated equipment and autonomous robotics.
