Shrink wrapping is a comparatively new technology. It helps to collate small objects into compact packs. A shrink film is wrapped around the product and kept on the conveyer and the film is shrunk by applying hot air or by passing through the shrink tunnel. The process is controlled by pyrometer to give the product a tamper proof over wrap. Shrink-wrap can be done on individual product as well as stacks.
