Box and carton shrink wrapping

Shrink wrapping machine for boxes

Boxes and cartons are among the most common products for L-sealer machinery because they are usually stable, regular in shape and suitable for a neat presentation shrink wrap. The correct machine depends on the largest box size, the required finish, the film width and whether the pack is handled manually or automatically.

L sealer machine for boxes and cartons — Shrink wrapping machine for boxes guidance from Lancing UK.

Best route for boxed goods

Semi automatic L sealer for short runs, batch packing and lower output.
Automatic L sealer for repeatable infeed, higher output and reduced manual handling.
Heat tunnel matched to film type and pack height for consistent shrink finish.
Outfeed table or conveyor where the pack needs to cool before packing into outers.

Common box applications

Typical applications include cosmetics boxes, printed cartons, electronics boxes, books, stationery kits, pharmaceutical cartons and retail presentation packs. For fragile packs, product spacing and transfer into the tunnel are important because loose film can catch if the pack is unstable.

Specification details to send for a quotation

Measure the largest box in millimetres and provide the expected packs per minute, film preference, power supply and a photograph or sample of the product. This allows the machine aperture, film width and tunnel length to be checked properly.

Specification summary

For a reliable recommendation, send product dimensions, photographs, required output, film preference, available floor space, power and compressed air details. Lancing UK can then check the correct machine aperture, heat tunnel size, conveyor layout and operator access before quoting.
