Shrink Tunnel
Description:
A Shrink tunnel is a heating tunnel with a conveyor passing through the chamber. Once a product is loosely encased in shrink film via shrink sealer, heat is applied to the shrink film inside the chamber. The heat causes the film to shrink, thereby securing the product.
Best Application:
Shrink tunnels are ideal for the retail and food industries because of their ability to seal a variety of packages, from bottles to boxes.

Single Chamber Tunnel
- Single chamber tunnels are ideal for lower speed applications.
Double Chamber Tunnel
- Double chamber tunnels contain 2 tunnels and are ideal for medium speed applications.
