Signode Introduces BST Battery Powered Tool For Sealless Strapping Glenview, Illinois based Signode, a global manufacturer of a broad spectrum of automated packaging equipment, tools, and consumables, has launched its new BST Bat- tery Powered Tool for Sealless Steel Strapping. Featuring an ergonomic design and multiple productivity-enhancing features, this new tool is designed to perform in demand- ing applications. The BST features an electronically controlled and re- producible strapping process. A “Sealless” notched joint offers security and stability for loads that require heavy duty tension. “The sealless feature of the new BST tool expands the possibilities for heavy duty steel strapping,” says Ralph Kieffer, Director of Global Market Development at Signode. “We listened to what our global customers were looking for in a mobile steel strapping tool, and that important in- put guided our design and development process.”
