Ling Systems Stainless heat shrink tunnel

• Packaging of food products such as ready meals, baked goods, and fresh produce.
• Wrapping of pharmaceutical items for tamper-evident sealing.
• Bundling of multiple products for retail or distribution.
• Protective packaging for electronics and delicate components.
• Sealing of cosmetic products to ensure product integrity.

Typical throughput

Throughput for this class of equipment typically ranges from 10 to 60 packs per minute, depending on product size and film type.

Power supply

Units of this type commonly require a 3-phase electrical supply, typically 400V, 50Hz, with power consumption varying based on tunnel size and heating elements.

Temperature range

Shrink tunnels commonly operate within a temperature range of 120°C to 200°C, with digital controls allowing for precise adjustment.

Footprint

The overall footprint for a unit with a 2500mm belt length would typically be around 3000mm in length, allowing for control panels and access.

Construction material

As indicated, stainless steel construction is common for hygiene-sensitive environments, offering durability and ease of cleaning.

Belt type

Stainless steel mesh belts are typically used for their heat resistance and suitability for various product types, including those requiring ventilation during shrinking.

• What type of shrink film is compatible with this tunnel?

  Heat shrink tunnels are typically compatible with various types of shrink film, including PVC, Polyolefin (POF), and Polyethylene (PE), depending on the film gauge and desired shrink characteristics. Buyers should confirm film suitability with the seller.

• How is temperature control managed?

• What maintenance is typically required for a shrink tunnel?

• Can this unit handle different product sizes?

• Is this unit suitable for food contact applications?

Used sealing machines are generally valued for their durability and long operational life. Buyers typically prioritize machines with clear maintenance histories and minimal wear on sealing components. Key considerations include film compatibility, seal quality consistency, and ease of adjustment. Reputable models tend to retain functionality well across multiple applications. Industry sentiment suggests these machines offer strong value when sourced from reliable vendors, though operators should verify calibration settings and test seal integrity before full production use.
