Interchangeable modular components can be quickly removed and replaced for routine maintenance with no need for special handling equipment. Modules can be replaced inline in seconds by your own service personnel, eliminating long-term service disruptions and minimizing operator exposure to active machinery. The M247 features a simple design with few moving parts and highly durable wear parts, making it far more cost efficient to maintain than traditional steel strapping heads.
