The present disclosure provides a strapping apparatus for strapping articles to be packaged with a strapping band. The strapping apparatus includes a band detection device configured to indicate that the band is in a non-positionally correct and/or a positionally correct position, depending on the embodiment.

The invention concerns a device for strapping objects with a flat strap, consisting of a strap guide frame, a cover frame and an ejector. The strap guide frame has a flat strap channel that is open on a narrow side and the cover frame can be moved between a closed position and an open position relative to the strap guide frame. In the closed position, it covers the narrow side of the strap channel and in the open position, there is a gap. From a second side surface opposite of the open, narrow side, the ejector protrudes into the strap channel.

In order to realize a stable and cost-effective design, the ejector (14) is a flat component with two legs (23, 24) at an angle to one another, wherein the free end of the first leg (23) is mounted to the mounting element (21) and the free end of the second leg (24) protrudes, with little play, into a flat opening (18) that protrudes through the strap guide frame (9), extends across the strap channel (15) and has a height that is greater than the height of the strap channel (15) transverse to the plane of the strap.

A manual automatic device configured for fitting cable ties around a bundle of cables or the like. The device includes a control interface allowing the user of the device to choose an operating mode that tightens but does not cut the cable tie and in which the electric motor which drives the cable tie in tension is controlled in reverse rotation to eject the cable tie before cutting. A method for controlling the device is also presented herein.

The disclosure relates to an automatic bundling tool device (ABT) for bundling a bundling good by means of a one-piece-tie (OPT). In an aspect, an ABT includes: a holding unit configured to receive, hold, and release a respective OPT which is provided to the ABT from an external reservoir of OPTs; a linear motion guiding unit configured to linearly guide the holding unit in a longitudinal direction while moving between a receiving position where the holding unit receives, during intended use, the respective OPT and a releasing position where the holding unit releases, during intended use, the respective OPT; and a drive unit configured to move the holding unit along the linear motion guiding unit.
