Exploration on the compatibility of Heat Shrinking Machine and POF shrink materials

Industry News-

1. Compatibility of Heat Shrinking Machine and POF shrink materials
The Heat Shrinking Machine heats the shrink film to make it fit tightly on the packaged object, thereby achieving the purpose of protecting, fixing and beautifying the product. POF shrink film has become the preferred material in the field of heat shrink packaging due to its good transparency, toughness, environmental protection and shrinkage performance.

2. Thickness of POF shrink material suitable for Heat Shrinking Machine
According to the product information of Heat Shrinking Machine provided, the machine is suitable for POF shrink film with a thickness of 0.015-0.025 mm. The selection of this thickness range is based on a comprehensive consideration of many factors such as the design parameters of the machine, heating efficiency and packaging requirements.

Design parameters: The heating elements, conveying devices and control systems of the heat shrink machine are all designed and optimized according to the specific thickness of the shrink film. Therefore, choosing a POF shrink film of appropriate thickness can ensure the stable operation and optimal performance of the machine.
Heating efficiency: The thickness of the POF shrink film directly affects the speed and effect of its heating and shrinking. Too thick shrink film requires longer heating time and higher temperature to achieve the ideal shrinking effect, while too thin shrink film may break due to the inability to withstand the tension during the heating process. Therefore, choosing a POF shrink film of appropriate thickness can ensure the maximum heating efficiency.
Packaging requirements: Different packaging has different requirements for the thickness of the shrink film. For example, for fragile items or items that require additional protection, thicker shrink film may be required to provide stronger protection; while for items that are light or have high appearance requirements, thinner shrink film can be selected to keep them light and beautiful.
3. Length of POF shrink material applicable to Heat Shrinking Machine
In addition to thickness, the length of POF shrink film is also an important factor affecting the performance and packaging effect of the heat shrinking machine. According to the product information provided, the Heat Shrinking Machine is suitable for POF shrink film with a length of 145-175 mm. The selection of this length range is also based on the design parameters of the machine, the size of the packaging, and production efficiency.

Design parameters: The conveying device and cutting device of the heat shrinking machine are designed and adjusted according to the specific shrink film length. Therefore, choosing the appropriate length of POF shrink film can ensure the stability and accuracy of the machine during the conveying and cutting process.
Package size: Different packages have different sizes and shapes. In order to ensure that the shrink film can fit tightly on the package, it is necessary to select the appropriate length of shrink film according to its size. Too long shrink film may cause waste and unnecessary cost increase, while too short shrink film may not fully cover the package.
Production efficiency: On a continuous production line, the production efficiency of the heat shrink machine is closely related to the length of the shrink film. The appropriate length of shrink film can ensure that the machine maintains a stable rhythm and efficiency during continuous production.
