There are three steps in creating the package on the shrink
wrapping system: wrap, seal and shrink.
WRAPPING
The operator places the product to be wrapped on the package
platform (1) inserting it between the center fold film (2). Holding the
product firmly with the right hand (3) and the corner of the film with
the other hand (4), move the product onto the sealing area.
SEALING
The package is placed in the lower right corner of the sealing area
(5), allowing for sufficient film margin on the side and front of the
package (about 2 inches) for adequate shrink. The sealing arm is
lowered into position (6) which actuates the sealing cycle. The two
open sides of the film are sealed completing a bag around the
product and leaving the end of the film sealed, ready for the next
package.
SHRINKING
The sealed package in the loose film (7) is manually moved out of
the sealing area and onto the conveyor belt. If equipped with a
sealing conveyor, the package will automatically be taken into the
shrink tunnel. The package is conveyed through the shrink tunnel
and recirculating, heated air shrinks the film, creating a clear, tight
package (8).
