Product Description
A mini shrink tunnel is a compact, automated orsemi-automated machine designed to apply heat to shrinkable packagingmaterials, such as shrink sleeves or films, around products like oil tins. Thisequipment is widely used in packaging industries to securely seal, label, ordecorate oil containers efficiently.
Key Features of a Mini Shrink Tunnel for Oil Tins:
- Compact Size: Suitable for small-scale operations, laboratories, or businesses with limited space.
- Adjustable Temperature and Conveyor Speed: Allows precise control to ensure proper shrinking without damaging the oil tins or packaging.
- Heating System: Uses electric or gas heating elements to generate consistent heat within the tunnel.
- Conveyor Belt: Moves the oil tins through the heated zone for uniform shrinking.
- Safety Features: Includes safety covers, emergency stop buttons, and temperature controls.
Benefits:
- Enhanced Product Appearance: Shrink sleeves give a neat, professional look to oil tins.
- Tamper Evidence: Shrink sleeves can act as tamper-evident seals.
- Branding and Labeling: Allows for customized designs and branding on the packaging.
- Protection: Provides a layer of protection against dust, moisture, and tampering.
Typical Application Process:
- Preparation: Oil tins are filled and sealed with shrink sleeves or films.
- Loading: Tins are placed on the conveyor belt of the mini shrink tunnel.
- Heating: The tins pass through the heated zone where the shrink film contracts tightly around the surface.
- Cooling & Exit: The sealed and decorated oil tins exit the tunnel, ready for packaging or distribution.
Considerations When Choosing a Mini Shrink Tunnel:
- Size and Capacity: Match the tunnel size with your production volume.
- Temperature Range: Ensure it can reach the required temperature for your specific shrink film.
- Ease of Operation: User-friendly controls and maintenance features.
- Energy Efficiency: Look for models that minimize power consumption
