The SRT-2500 Electric Heat Tunnel

The SRT-2500 Electric Heat Tunnel

  • Ideal for users who prefer the lower maintenance and
    easier startup/shutdown of an electric tunnel
  • Ideal for sleeving powdered products where steam or
    moisture is an issue
  • Ideal for sleeving empty containers where steam and
    moisture isn’t an option
  • Ideal for blow molders and the changing needs of
    contract packagers

The SRT-2500 Electric Steam Replacement Tunnel for shrink
sleeve labeling applications from American Film &
Machinery is designed for middle, full body, and full body
and cap shrink applications. SRT-2500 doesn’t require steam
and is a perfect addition to shrink labeling lines in
manufactured goods industries including food and
beverage, pharmaceutical, nutraceutical, health and beauty,
consumer goods, and chemical products.

AFM’s SRT-2500 is the perfect answer for shrink sleeve labeling applications where steam tunnels are not an option. SRT-2500 utilizes electric heat to provide steam results without using steam. The system comes equipped with three independent shrink zones that allow airflow in each zone to be regulated separately. Zone One is for mild heat and general softening, Zone Two is for more intense overall heat, and Zone Three is for very intense, abrupt heat from all sides for fast and even shrinking. As a result, the SRT-2500 provides optimal shrink control and a high-quality finish on several films including PVC, PET, and OPS.
