4525 Shrink Tunnel

A shrink tunnel utilizes a conveyor and heat to maintain consistent temperatures within the tunnel chamber. Shrink tunnels are most often used for heat shrink packaging items, but can also be used for curing applications as well. The three primary types of shrink tunnels are recirculating, infrared, and steam tunnels.Shrink wrap machines apply heat to shrink a plastic film around a product. This process is often done by automated equipment, but manual and semi-automatic shrink wrap machines are also available. Shrink wrap machines cover the item, and then sent it through a heat tunnel or oven for shrinking.
