ThermoFlow Low Pressure Integrated Steam Tunnels
ThermoFlow® standalone steam shrink tunnels offer high quality shrink performance that only steam can provide with the convenience of an integrated, self-contained steam generator.
Don’t have steam generation capabilities at your plant? Don’t want to invest in a boiler, piping and certification?
Axon’s Thermoflow self-contained steam tunnel shrink system is for you.
When supplied with water and electricity, ThermoFlow systems automatically generate high quality, low pressure steam and directly supply it to an integrated shrink tunnel.
Why is low pressure important? Because low pressure steam generation systems are not subject to the same certification requirements as larger, high pressure boiler based systems.
ThermoFlow integrated steam tunnels eliminate the need for costly centralized steam generation systems. They offer tool-less container changeovers and the changeover process is simple, intuitive and repeatable.
Like every Axon shrink tunnel, ThermoFlow offers the flexibility to perform five important shrink applications:
- Tamper evident bands
- Partial body sleeves
- Full body sleeves
- Full body over the cap sleeves
- Multi-packs
This flexibility makes Axon shrink sleeve tunnels one of the best values in the industry.
