A band wrapping device forms a length of band material into a loop for automatically applying the band to a limb (e.g., wrist) of a user. The band wrapping device may receive the length of band material from a cassette receivable in the band wrapping device and can include a band transport mechanism for transporting the band material, a sealer module for sealing the band material to itself and cutting the band material to a length, and/or a ring module for reception of the limb of the user for band application. The device and its constituent components can help reduce the contact between the individual requiring a band and those applying the band, can help reduce waste by using a more precise amount of band material sized to the limb, and can help reduce the staffing requirements in areas in which the bands are to be applied.
