After the shrinking process, bags often come out with residual moisture that makes labeling and packing into cardboard boxes more difficult. Industrial drying tunnels automatically remove water from the surface, ensuring the product leaves the line ready for handling, improving hygiene, and optimizing workflow in the packaging line.
The drying tunnel works in continuous operating; all the bags coming from the shrink tank go through the drying tunnel and leave it without water.
This process is highly recommended for projects / productions in which the bags have to be labeled just outside the shrinking process, or where the already shrinked bags have to be placed in cardboard boxes; to prevent them from decomposing with the water the bags, it is convenient to pass these through the DR1 drying tunnel.

Thought for you
Industrial drying tunnels are an essential addition to packaging lines that include shrink tanks. Their main function is to automatically remove moisture from bags, ensuring a cleaner, faster, and more efficient production flow. Here are the main benefits:
The air-knife system removes water from the surface of the bags evenly, preventing residual moisture that could affect product presentation or preservation.
By automating drying, time- and resource-consuming manual tasks are eliminated, optimizing production and reducing labor and handling costs.
Its robust design and continuous operation help maintain a steady workflow, even in demanding industrial environments with high production requirements.
Since 1979, our vacuum packaging machines have been the trusted partner for supermarkets, manufacturers and large food companies that demand the best in their production lines.

A drying tunnel automatically removes moisture from bags coming out of the shrink tank, preventing water residue from remaining on the surface. This improves product presentation, enables immediate labeling, and prevents issues during packing—especially when using cardboard boxes.
The DR1 model connects easily to the output of the TR8 or TR10 shrink tanks, operating continuously at the same production pace. It includes a conveyor belt and an air-knife system, allowing drying to be synchronized with the rest of the line without the need for manual handling.
Maintenance is minimal thanks to its robust design. You just need to periodically clean the conveyor belt and regularly check the air ducts and electrical connections. Since it doesn’t require frequent wear parts, maintenance costs are very low and the machine offers high reliability for intensive use.
