How Does The Shrink Sleeve Machine Work
Product Conveying
Products are transported into the labeling machine area, usually by a conveyor belt. For high-speed systems, this can involve product separation or gripping.
Label Application (Sleeving)
Labels are prepared by unwinding from a roll on a stand. The label is then fed, detected by sensors, cut, and applied or “sleeved” onto the product container.
Label Shrinking
Products with the applied label sleeve are conveyed into a shrink tunnel or oven. Inside the tunnel, heat (such as hot air or steam) is applied, causing the label to shrink tightly around the product, conforming to its shape.
Finished Product Output
The products with the fully shrunk labels are then discharged from the shrink tunnel as finished items.

Two Main Kinds Heat Tunnels for Shrink Sleeve Machine
Tengyi shrink sleeve machine is compatible with both hot air shrink ovens and steam shrink ovens.
The two greatly differ in the principles of heating, performance, range of application, and the composition of the costs.
Their flexibility, relatively low startup cost, and suitability for some particular materials make hot air shrink ovens popular.
Steam shrink ovens, however, are best suited for products with intricate container shapes along with those that need high-end appearance, since these ensure uniform and gentle heating.
💨 Steam Shrink Tunnels
Heating Method: Uses hot steam as the heat transfer medium, surrounding the package in the tunel.
Heat Transfer & Performance:
Steam is around 20 times more efficient than hot air when it comes to heat transfer. It provides smooth, even heat at lower temperatures—usually between 77°C and 93°C—which is gentler on materials.
Shrink Quality:
Excellent for full-body labels, especially on odd-shaped containers like bottles and jars. The finish is often smoother and more uniform than with hot air.
Best For:
Ideal for high-end packaging, food, and pharma products. Performs especially well on PET and glass containers, and works with shrink films like PVC, PETG, OPS, and PLA.
Energy Consumption: 20–30kw, higher than that of a hot air shrink tunnel

🔥 Hot Air Shrink Tunnels
How It Works:
These systems use forced hot air to apply heat, often with a recirculation feature to boost efficiency. They can run on either electricity or gas.
Heat Transfer & Performance:
Since air doesn’t transfer heat as efficiently as other methods, these tunnels typically run at higher temperatures—usually between 93°C and 232°C, with some reaching up to 260°C.
Shrink Quality:
For standard applications, these work well. However, complex shapes can be a challenge, and if the settings aren’t just right, you might see imperfections like wrinkles, fisheyes, or burn marks. For example, PET film can turn white if the temperature isn’t suitable.
Best For:
Great for items with medium shrink temperature needs and those that shouldn’t get wet. Ideal for flat or slightly curved surfaces. Works well with films like polyolefin and PVC.
Energy Consumption: 15-18kw, lower than steam heated shrink tunel
