SHRINK BAND TUNNELS are "stand alone" machines designed to work over existing conveyor systems. If a conveyor system is not available, LATTER has conveyors available with legs and 5" locking casters. The top mounted stand attaches to any of LATTER'S Shrink Band tunnels and, with its 5" swivel locking casters, allows for effortless movement. Furthermore, to help in positioning, the hand crank scissors-jack easily raises and lowers the tunnel over a conveyor.
Features: - Digital Display Thermostatic Heat Control: Very easy to read and insert the "set value temperature" as well as reading the "prevailing value temperature". Keeps the set temperature constant in the chamber.
- 2-Way Air Flow: Hot air flows along both sides of the chamber, utilizing the full length of the tunnel. In addition, a nozzle forces hot air down from the top at a 45 degree angle. This creates a fast and even shrink of the film to the product. The air flows can be custom adjusted by the insertion of metal plugs.
- Automatic Tunnel Cool Down: The shrink tunnel only shuts down after it has cooled below 110 Deg. F., eliminating the danger of heat shock to the motors.
- Blower and Cooling Fan System:Fans keep the heater blowers continually cooled by directing ambient air onto them, keeping the blowers from overheating and prematurely shutting down.
- Fully Insulated:The tunnel is fully insulated to keep the outer shell cool to the touch, at the same time making the tunnel very economically efficient to run.
- Ease of Maintenance:The tunnel is designed for easy maintenance - all parts of the machine are accessible.
- Heavy Duty All Steel Constructed with Baked On Powder Coating: Designed and built for long life even under the most rigorous constant production.

Four "Stock" Sizes to Choose From - Custom Sizes are Economical and Fast to Manufacture.
Shrink Band Tunnel Options:
Conveyors: Custom sizes are economical and fast to manufactur. Three "stock" sizes to choose from. Conveyors have legs with locking swival casters, are variable speed and come with adjustable bolt-on sides to straddle the tunnel over the conveyor belt. The conveyor belt is made of a high-temp nylon glass filled material designed to withstand high temperatures. The conveyor belt is very quiet and trouble free.
