Description
GP-Series Semi-Auto Linear Shrink Bundler Multipack Ring Packaging
Semi auto linear shrink bundler 6 pack bottles.
Core Technology
This linear-configuration bundler applies heat-shrink film to bottle groups using precision thermal processes. Operator-assisted solution for applying shrink film collars to beverage and product groups using precision thermal technology:
-
Dual-Stage Thermal Processing:
-
Heat Tunnel: Controlled shrinkage at 120-200°C
-
Hot Knife Cutter: Clean film separation + edge sealing
-
-
Bottle Compatibility: Glass/PET containers (Ø 40-120mm, H 100-350mm)
-
Bundle Configurations: 4, 6, 8, or 12-pack formats
-
Manual Loading + Automatic Sealing: Operator positions products → Machine applies/seals shrink rings
-
Versatile Applications: Handles cans, bottles, vials (Ø 30-120mm)
-
Rapid Operation: 60+ bundles/hour with single operator

ROI Calculator
- Manual labor: 2 operators × $15/hr = $30/hr
+ GP-Series: 1 operator × $15/hr + $1.50 energy = $16.50/hr
→ 45% cost reduction | 6-month payback at 300 bundles/day
+ Affordability: 45% cost of full-auto systems
+ Flexibility: 30-120mm diameter range
+ ROI: 6-month payback at 200 bundles/day
| Metric | Manual Bundling | GP-100 | Improvement |
|---|---|---|---|
| Speed | 20 bundles/hr | 60 bundles/hr | 3x faster |
| Film Waste | 10-25% | 3-9% | 65% less |
| Labor | 2 operators | 1 operator | 55% savings |
