The shrink tunnel, also called a shrink oven, is a packaging system that uses shrink film to perfectly wrap products. Used across various industries, the shrink tunnel utilizes hot air to shrink the film and make it fully adhere to the packaged product, ensuring protection, stability, and a professional presentation. At Makinate, you can find a wide selection of certified used shrink tunnels, ideal for completing your packaging line with bundlers, overwrapping machines, or sleeve machines, providing a sustainable investment and reliable performance....
Operation of the shrink oven
The already packaged product is fed into the shrink tunnel either automatically or manually, depending on the production line configuration. Once inside, the oven’s hot air gradually shrinks the shrink film and makes it fully adhere to the package, creating a secure and durable packaging. After the shrink process, the sealed packages are automatically discharged from the tunnel via an exit conveyor. The conveyor speed is usually adjustable and can be adapted according to the product type and specific production requirements, allowing for cycle time optimization.
Versatility and configurability of shrink tunnels
Products packaged with the shrink tunnel can be of any shape: round, oval, square, rectangular, tall, or short. Simply set the product type on the PLC, and the tunnel can optimally wrap it with shrink film. Both single products and multiple products can be packaged with the shrink oven, providing maximum operational flexibility. This versatility makes shrink tunnels essential tools for companies that need to package different types of products on the same line, always ensuring a professional result and effective protection during transport and storage.
