Introduction of Shrink Sleeve Applicator Machine
SED-RTB Automatic shrink sleeve applicator is used in application of the shrink sleeve labels onto container, which is widely used for foods, beverages, personal care products, cosmetic and pharmaceutical packaging. The bottle shrink sleeve machine can be connected with liquid filling machine, capsule tablet counting line, sleeve shrink wrapping machine and so on to form a complete production line.
Working Principle of Shrink Sleeve Applicator Machine
The sleeve, supplied in the form of a continuous web with printed graphics, is continuously unrolled from the reel through rollers and it is then put on the forming tube, which opens and prepares the sleeve for the cutting operation. A rotating blades system cuts the sleeve at the required length, which is then positioned and pulled on the product as a label. The product thus obtained is then conveyed into a steam or electric (option) shrinking tunnel, so that the sleeve fits perfectly to the contour of the container.
