Abstract
The various aspects disclosed herein relate to a handwrapper assembly that provides a braking assembly to limit or prevent rotation of a roll of material when a pallet or skid is wrapped for shipment. The braking assembly may comprise a slidable stopper that engages one or more arms to force the one or more arms to rotate outwardly to engage the roll of material to stop rotation. The handwrapper assembly may also comprise a trigger mechanism to selectively activate the braking assembly such that the amount of friction between the roll of material and the one or more arms is adjustable.
