Typical throughput

For this class of equipment, throughput typically ranges from 10 to 30 packs per minute, depending on product size and film type.

Power supply

Shrink wrappers and tunnels commonly require a 3-phase electrical supply, typically 400V, with varying amperage requirements for the heating elements.

Film compatibility

Units of this type are generally compatible with various shrink films, including PVC, polyolefin, and polyethylene, in thicknesses typically ranging from 15 to 50 microns.

Maximum product dimensions

The maximum product dimensions accommodated by an FP870A model would typically be detailed in the manufacturer's specifications, but for similar units, common sealing bar widths dictate product size.

Footprint

A combined shrink wrapper and tunnel system commonly requires a significant operational footprint, often several metres in length, plus space for loading and unloading.

Heating method

Shrink tunnels commonly utilise electric heating elements with adjustable temperature controls to achieve optimal film shrinkage.
