As some of you may know, transporting packaged goods can be a big challenge for companies and those in the packaging industry. With new technology that not only simplify the man-labor, high-tech equipment like strapping tools and durable materials face the problem head on, and ultimately tackle the challenge.
One of these profitable tools is the P331, which has become a fundamental tool in the packaging industry. The P331 is a battery operated plastic strapping tool, and the state-of-the-art newest tool to hit the market. Manufactured by Fromm, this tool has proven to be very efficient, economical, and powerful. The tension strength is up to 1600 pounds using the ¾” or 1.25 polyester strapping with ease.
The P331 looks similar to the P330 but has undergone minor changes as the sealing lever has been removed. There are now two buttons for operation on the auto mode. This tool is a great addition to the industries that are constantly looking to increase their productivity. The tool has helped operators get their work done faster.

The P331 comes with two batteries and a charger. The battery is lithium ion from Bosch, and is considered to be the best in the industry. The great advantage in using this battery is that time is not wasted; while one battery is being used the other gets charged. This has helped increase the productivity, as well as longevity. Using battery-operated tools is easier for the operators as all three functions of strapping, sealing and cutting are completed by touch of a button.
Sealing
The tool uses the friction weld method of sealing. This eliminates the use of steel seals and the cost of stocking them. Industry experts believe that this tool is very masterly in locking the weld down perfectly. As the tool is battery operated, there are no wires running around the workroom floor and this enables the operator to carry the tool around easily without hindrance. This has also proven to be an practical and money-saving tool.
