High production shrink band Tunnels and
equipment.

Model # SBT-7-11-26 with Conveyor # C-4-96
option.
Description:
SHRINK BAND TUNNELS are "stand alone" machines designed to
work over existing conveyor systems. If a conveyor system is not
available, LATTER has two sizes of conveyors available that are
either table top or can include adjustable legs with 5" locking
casters. Also available is a "Shrink Band Tunnel Stand".
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.
Specifications:
Shrink
Band Tunnel Options:
Table Top Conveyors: Two "stock" lengths
to choose from, 4 ft. and 8 ft. Both conveyors are table top (legs
optional), variable speed and come with 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.
