Automatic L Sealers use a conveyor fed automatic operation that can process up 20 to 35 packages a minute. Soft feed conveyors carry products into the system and places them inside the folded shrink film.

Semi-Automatic L-Sealer Shrink Wrap Machine

Semi-Automatic L-Sealers need an operator to place the product inside the folded over shrink wrap film. The operator then lowers the sealing arm which applies heat forming the final side and end seal.

Automatic Side Seal Shrink Wrap Machine

Automatic side seal shrink wrap machines are high speed continuous motion shrink packagers. A conveyor system moves products through the machine while mechanical arms trim and seal the shrink film. The continues pace allows for faster pack times and in-feed systems ensure the right amount of shrink film is applied.

Automatic Shrink Tunnels

Shrink tunnels are the heart of shrink wrap systems. Shrink tunnels move products along conveyor systems while maintaining an even consistent temperature. This improves the shrink wrap process allowing for equal wrap application around the entire product.
