Shanklin F-1, F-5, F-7 Form-Fill Seal Shrink Wrap Equipment

Shanklin Form-Fill Seal Shrink Wrappers
Fully automatic Shanklin form-fill seal machines are continuous motion horizontal sealers designed to wrap packages effortlessly and efficiently. Built for peak performance, durability, and versatility, each model includes numerous standard features and options that allow customization to application.
Models F-1, F-5, and F-7
These efficient side-sealing wrappers shrinkwrap product with neat trim seals on three sides of the package, handling even irregular shapes with ease. The inverting heads do not require a precise matching of film width, thus allowing you to run many sizes of packages with only a moderate selection of film widths.
