Whitepaper: All About Heat Shrink Tunnels

A heat tunnel, sometimes called a shrink tunnel, is an enclosed area that applies heat to an object. Heat tunnels are generally found above or enveloping a section of conveyor belt to allow for automated travel through the tunnel. The primary use for a heat tunnel is the activation of heat shrink labels and tamper bands on a container; however, they are also used to cure paints and heat parts.

We'll take you through: 
  • Different types of heat tunnels available
  • Their advantages and disadvantages
  • Common complications encountered when shrinking

This whitepaper is now available as an article series:
  • Part One: Types of Heat Tunnels
  • Part Two: Advantages and Disadvantages
  • Part Three: Technical Complications of Heat Shrinking
