# Strapping apparatus and method of handling strapping

## Abstract

A strapping apparatus for cutting a strap on a package has a treatment head having on a lower side a full base plate having a lift edge on a full base plate. A manipulator carries the treatment head for movement in three dimensions. A controller operates the manipulating means for first passing a corner of the base plate under the strap and subsequently pivoting in the base plate to completely underlie the strap.
