EXTREME XT Series High Speed Shrink Tunnel


Our ARPAC Brand EXTREME XT tunnels employ a unique chamber design and airflow system that allows the operator complete control of the shrink process, whether the product and film require a gentle air flow or greater circulation for high rates and premium quality shrink.

The XT shrink tunnel offers an innovative bottom pre-shrink design that gives tight control of seal placement. On thin products, the seal can even be placed on the edge or bottom of the package. The directional air flow controls eliminate dog ears and small wrinkles providing a pristine and aesthetic end package, ideal for retail shelves.

Compared to other tunnel designs that use dual chambers, this single chamber design is shorter, saving valuable factory space. Single chamber designs require fewer components and controls, lowering repair and maintenance costs while increasing longevity and reliability of the tunnel.
