2-in-1 Shrink Wrapping Machine KPW-FM5540 | Product max 550×400mm | UZINEX

The 2-in-1 shrink wrapping machine KPW-FM5540 is the compact equipment that combines electric-bar sealing and an integrated heat-shrink tunnel within a single 1.300 × 550 × 1.100 mm body — processing products up to 550 mm long and 400 mm wide at a rate of 5–15 cycles per minute, with shrink film 0,02–0,1 mm thick (POF, PE or PVC), a maximum operating temperature of 300°C, 2,5 kW power at 220V single-phase and a weight of 70 kg.

The 2-in-1 shrink wrapping machine KPW-FM5540 covers the largest product size in the entire UZINEX range of shrink-wrap equipment with integrated sealing: 550 mm length and 400 mm width exceed the capabilities of all the L-sealers in the range (FL450-2, FL450, FL550, KPW-4020 Tunnel, KPW-450L) and target operators who package large products in shrink film with a single compact machine, without investing in separate industrial solutions. Key Advantages of the 2-in-1 Shrink Wrapping Machine KPW-FM5540

• Product max 550 × 400 mm — the largest size in the integrated-sealing equipment range — the 2-in-1 shrink wrapping machine KPW-FM5540 processes products up to 550 mm long and 400 mm wide; no other equipment with integrated sealing + shrinking in the UZINEX range covers this dimension — the FL models cover a maximum 550 mm film width, while the semi-automatic units have bars of maximum 450 × 350 mm.

• The only integrated solution for products exceeding 400mm in length or 350mm in width — for large products that do not fit the bar of any L-sealer in the range, the 2-in-1 shrink wrapping machine KPW-FM5540 is the only option with integrated sealing and shrinking; the alternative would be a separate L-sealer plus the industrial BSE6040A tunnel — two machines, more space and a higher investment.

• 5–15 cycles per minute — the highest speed in the semi-automatic equipment category — the 2-in-1 shrink wrapping machine KPW-FM5540 produces 5–15 cycles per minute, compared with 3–6 cycles/min for the KPW-4020 and KPW-450L semi-automatic units; at 15 cycles per minute, the machine produces 900 packages per hour — more than triple a standard semi-automatic unit and approaching the rate of entry-level automatic models.

• Max temperature 300°C — full coverage including for films that are hard to shrink — the 2-in-1 shrink wrapping machine KPW-FM5540 reaches 300°C in the integrated shrink tunnel, compared with 250°C on the KPW-4020 and KPW-450L semi-automatic units; the additional 50°C enables complete shrinking of thick PE films (80–100 µm) and special films with higher shrink windows, broadening the range of compatible materials compared with equipment having a lower maximum temperature.

• Film 0,02–0,1 mm — the highest maximum thickness accepted in the range — the 2-in-1 shrink wrapping machine KPW-FM5540 processes films up to 0,1 mm (100 µm) thick, compared with 0,08 mm (80 µm) on the automatic FL models; 100 µm PE film is used in the industrial packaging of heavy products and bundles that require high mechanical strength of the packaging; the 2-in-1 shrink wrapping machine KPW-FM5540 is the only compact machine in the range capable of processing this maximum thickness.

• Digital display — real-time monitoring of temperature, sealing time and speed — the 2-in-1 shrink wrapping machine KPW-FM5540 has an interface with a digital display that shows all operating parameters in real time; the operator sees the current and set temperature, the sealing time per cycle and the working speed without estimating from the position of analogue knobs; the digital display reduces the risk of setting errors when changing the type of film or the product format.

• Sealing bar with adjustable time and pressure — fine adaptation to every type of film — the 2-in-1 shrink wrapping machine KPW-FM5540 allows independent adjustment of sealing time and pressure; combining control of the bar's contact time with the film and the applied pressure ensures a tight seal on films of different thicknesses (from 20 µm POF to 100 µm PE) without burning thin films and without incomplete sealing of thick films.

• High-performance electric motor — continuous operation throughout the entire shift — the 2-in-1 shrink wrapping machine KPW-FM5540 is equipped with an electric motor designed for continuous operation; at 15 cycles per minute over an 8-hour shift, the machine processes up to 7.200 packages without interruption; sizing the motor for intensive use ensures the speed and sealing quality are maintained from the first cycle of the day to the last.

• 70 kg and 1.300 × 550 × 1.100 mm — mobility and a small footprint for the processable size — the 2-in-1 shrink wrapping machine KPW-FM5540, at 70 kg, can be moved by two operators without lifting equipment; the ratio between the machine's footprint (1.300 × 550 mm floor footprint) and the maximum processable product size (550 × 400 mm) is exceptional compared with standalone tunnels that require far more space for comparable capacity.

The 2-in-1 Shrink Wrapping Machine KPW-FM5540 Within the UZINEX Range

The 2-in-1 shrink wrapping machine KPW-FM5540 occupies the segment with the largest product size in the entire range of shrink-wrap equipment with integrated sealing and shrinking, completing the picture as follows:

• The semi-automatic units for small and medium products — KPW-4020 Tunnel (400 × 200mm bar, narrow product) and KPW-450L (450 × 350mm bar, wide product) cover the smaller sizes with manual actuation per cycle at 3–6 cycles/minute; the 2-in-1 shrink wrapping machine KPW-FM5540 extends the range to 5–15 cycles/minute and a product max of 550 × 400mm.

• The automatic FL conveyor models — FL450-2, FL450 and FL550 fully automate the cycle with product detection and an integrated conveyor for large continuous volumes; the 2-in-1 shrink wrapping machine KPW-FM5540 has no integrated conveyor, but covers the 550 × 400mm product format that the semi-automatic units cannot reach.

• The standalone BSE6040A tunnel — with 24 kW power and a 1.800 mm heat zone it processes heavy industrial bundles with a 25 kg load; the 2-in-1 shrink wrapping machine KPW-FM5540 is the compact all-in-one solution for large individual products, without needing the power and space of a separate industrial tunnel.

What "2-in-1" Means on the Shrink Wrapping Machine KPW-FM5540

The term "2-in-1" in the name of the 2-in-1 shrink wrapping machine KPW-FM5540 reflects the integration of two distinct machines within a single compact body and describes exactly what happens in the packaging flow:

• Function 1 — Electric-bar sealing — the electric sealing bar of the 2-in-1 shrink wrapping machine KPW-FM5540 applies heat and pressure to the shrink film, fusing the film layers and creating the package's closing seam; the contact time and the pressure are independently adjustable to suit each film thickness; the bar lifts after sealing and releases the package for the shrinking stage.

• Function 2 — Shrinking in the integrated tunnel — immediately after sealing, the product passes through the integrated heat-shrink zone of the 2-in-1 shrink wrapping machine KPW-FM5540, where a temperature of up to 300°C shrinks the film uniformly over all surfaces of the product; the film becomes fully conformed to the contour of the product, producing a compact and attractive package.

• Why the integration matters — without integration, the operator would seal the product with a separate L-sealer or sealing bar and would have to manually transfer the package to a standalone shrink tunnel; the 2-in-1 shrink wrapping machine KPW-FM5540 eliminates this transfer, reduces the space needed for two separate machines and ensures the film does not shift relative to the product in the interval between sealing and shrinking.

Frequently Asked Questions about the 2-in-1 Shrink Wrapping Machine KPW-FM5540

What is the main difference compared with the semi-automatic L-sealers in the range?

The 2-in-1 shrink wrapping machine KPW-FM5540 processes products up to 550 × 400mm and 5–15 cycles/minute, compared with a maximum of 450 × 350mm and 3–6 cycles/minute on the largest semi-automatic L-sealers KPW-450L and KPW-4020 Tunnel; in addition, the maximum temperature of 300°C versus 250°C and the maximum film thickness of 0,1mm versus 0,08mm broaden the range of processable materials; the 2-in-1 shrink wrapping machine KPW-FM5540 is the choice for large products that exceed the capabilities of the L-sealers in the range. Does the 2-in-1 shrink wrapping machine KPW-FM5540 operate automatically or semi-automatically?

The 2-in-1 shrink wrapping machine KPW-FM5540 requires the operator to position the product and trigger the sealing cycle; after actuation, sealing, cutting and shrinking are automatic; it is a semi-automatic machine with a higher speed than the classic L-sealers in the range, suitable for medium volumes where full cycle automation is not necessary. Which type of film provides the best package appearance on the 2-in-1 shrink wrapping machine KPW-FM5540?

The 2-in-1 shrink wrapping machine KPW-FM5540 produces the best-looking package with transparent POF (polyolefin) film of 20–40 µm; POF offers high transparency, excellent gloss and uniform shrinking at low temperatures that protect heat-sensitive products; PE film is recommended for heavy products or those with edges that exert pressure on the film; PVC film for maximum gloss; UZINEX engineers confirm the optimal type at commissioning. How much space is needed to install the 2-in-1 shrink wrapping machine KPW-FM5540?

The 2-in-1 shrink wrapping machine KPW-FM5540 occupies 1.300 × 550mm on the workshop floor, i.e. 0,72 m²; in addition to the machine's footprint, approximately 0,5–1m is needed in front of and behind the machine for operator access and product handling; the 1.100mm height allows installation in spaces with a standard ceiling without restrictions.
