- Typical throughput
- For this class of equipment, throughput commonly ranges from 10 to 40 packs per minute, depending on product size and film type.
- Power supply
- Units of this type typically require a 3-phase electrical supply, commonly 400V, 50Hz, with varying power consumption depending on heater wattage.
- Temperature range
- Shrink tunnels commonly offer adjustable temperature control, typically up to 200-250°C, suitable for various shrink films.
- Construction material
- As described, stainless steel construction is standard for food processing environments, ensuring hygiene and corrosion resistance.
- Footprint
- A heat shrink tunnel of this aperture size typically has a footprint ranging from 1.5 to 2.5 metres in length, requiring adequate space for infeed and outfeed.
- Compatible film types
- Commonly compatible with various shrink films including PVC, POF (polyolefin), and PE (polyethylene), depending on the tunnel's design and temperature control.
