Flattening Line
The PTL flattening line is for flattening heat-shrinkable tubing to be used as identification sleeves. This line is capable of flattening expanded heat-shrinkable tubing of multiple diameters ranging in diameter from 2.4 mm (3/32”) up to 76.2 mm (3”).
Consistent flattening can be easily achieved. The flattener has been designed and equipped with controls for product consistency and reproducibility.
Halogen-free and halogenated, flame-retardant polyolefin heat-shrink tubing in 2:1 and 3:1 shrink ratio, as well as other heat-shrinkable tubing (such as PVDF (Kynar) or other fluoropolymer based products) can be easily flattened to any desired ‘puff’.
