Horizontal Shrink Sleeve Applicator

SRL-H80 Horizontal Shrink Sleeve Applicator

Horizontal sleeve labelers are suitable for small bottles, cosmetic tubes and other narrow products that are difficult to transport upright. The products are carried on their side while the machine pulls shrink film from a roll, cuts it to the required length and places a sleeve over each one. They then move into a heat or steam tunnel, where the film shrinks around the container.

How the Sleeving Process Works
  • Products enter the shrink label applicator in a horizontal position
  • Shrink film is unwound and fed through the cutting system
  • The film is cut to the selected sleeve length
  • Individual sleeves are placed over the products
  • The sleeved products are transferred to the downstream shrink tunnel
Features
  • Horizontal shrink sleeve applicators have horizontal conveyors that provide stable support for narrow and small-diameter products that are difficult to transport upright.
  • They can be quickly adjusted for different product sizes and sleeve lengths, reducing setup time during product changeovers.
  • Product settings can be saved and recalled through the PLC touchscreen, where operators can also set parameters, check operating status, identify faults and view production data.
  • An optional vision inspection system can detect incorrect sleeve placement and uneven cuts during production.
  • Can process PVC, PET, OPS shrink films for different products and packaging requirements.
  • They are made of SUS304 stainless steel and include safety guards, an emergency stop button and a low-noise design that meets GMP requirements.
