Abstract

A strapping machine may include a strap guidance frame having a strap guidance channel and a plurality of closure elements, which may be arranged in a distributed manner over the length of the channel and may be movable from a position closing the channel into a position opening the channel. The closure elements may be fixable in the position closing the channel by means of a closure force that is generated by a magnetic closure device. The wear of the closing elements of the strapping machine may be reduced compared to known strapping machines. The magnetic closure device may have a displacement means for displacing at least part of the magnetic closure device so that the closure force is cancelled or an opening force directed counter to the closure force is generated.
