- Typical throughput
- Typically, units of this class can process between 10 to 25 packs per minute, depending on product size and operator efficiency.
- Power supply
- Commonly requires a 3-phase electrical supply, typically 400V, for the heating elements of the tunnel and the sealing bar.
- Film type compatibility
- Designed to work with various shrink films, including PVC, POF (polyolefin), and PE, typically up to 25 microns thickness.
- Maximum product dimensions
- For this class of equipment, the sealing area typically accommodates products up to 400mm in length and 250mm in height.
- Footprint
- Units with a built-in tunnel commonly have a combined footprint of approximately 1.5m to 2.5m in length and 0.8m to 1.2m in width.
- Heating method
- The shrink tunnel typically uses electric heating elements with adjustable temperature control for optimal film shrinkage.
