How to Control Shrink Wrapping Machine Costs

To professionally wrap items in shrink wrap, users need three things: shrink film, a sealer, and a heating element. This film is made from a variety of materials. The two most common types of packaging film are PVC and polyolefin. After inserting the product, a sealer is used to seal the open end of the film. Sealers are available in a variety of prices, sizes and production levels. After the open end is sealed, the film is heated using a heating source. The heat from the heating element causes the film to shrink to fit the wrapped product.

Let's start with a few questions to help determine the type of machine needed. Manufacturer SMARTWASP shows you.

Your Production Level

Many customers are unfamiliar with shrink wrapping and don't realize that understanding production levels is critical to help determine the type of machine needed. Some customers have established operations and are using shrink packaging for established product lines. Most of the time, these customers are familiar with production levels. Other customers are starting a new business or producing a new product line, but don't know the amount of product they will be packaging because they don't have any sales. Accurately predicted production levels will help determine the right machine to recommend. Efficiency and size are the two main factors that determine the cost of a shrink machine.

Size of the largest item

As mentioned above, size is an important factor in the total cost of a shrink wrapper. Knowing the size of the largest item to be wrapped will ensure that a machine can be found that can wrap all products. The machine that will seal and cover the largest object to be wrapped will also wrap smaller objects.

Which form of shrink wrap

The three main forms of shrink wrapping commonly used in packaging are tubing, bags and folding. Determining the best type of shrink wrap is critical when deciding on a shrink wrap machine. Different machines help seal the various types of shrink wrapping. If you are not sure which form of shrink wrap you are interested in, please call us and we will be happy to help you.
