Monitor costs and material usage.
This helps you to identify opportunities for improvement and track projects over time.
Wrapping should be consistent, efficient - and provable.
Too often, pallet wrapping is left to assumption. You trust it's done right, that film isn't being wasted, and that your costs are under control.
But when something goes wrong - movement during transit, rising spend, or a customer complaint - there's no easy way to prove what happened.
Kontrol 4.0 changes that.
Real-time insights for better decisions
Kontrol 4.0 gives you the data that matters, in real time - so you can stop issues before they turn into problems.
""To measure is to know.""

Unlike generic line monitoring systems like LineView, Kontrol 4.0 is purpose-built to track pallet wrapping performance in detail. Most line systems simply don’t go deep enough to show what’s really happening at the wrapper.
Some of the latest pallet wrapping machines come with built-in monitoring features - but that only works in practice if all your machines are the same brand and relatively new. In most operations, that’s just not the case, leaving you with missing data or dashboards that don’t talk to each other. Other retrofittable systems exist, but they often only work with certain machine types - which limits their usefulness.
