Stainless steel cheese shrink (hot water tunnel) machines are critical packaging equipment that ensure the packaging film on the outer surface of vacuum-packed cheese packages is stretched by the effect of hot water, thereby completely enveloping the product's shape. This system, manufactured by ÖNSA Makine, eliminates excess film at the corners of the packaging through the ‘shrink’ process, giving the product an aesthetic appearance, minimising oxygen permeability and preserving the product's shelf life. With its fully stainless steel construction and intelligent heat control, it offers high efficiency in food packaging lines.

Kaşar Shrink Machine Technical Specifications - Capacity

ÖNSA Makine shrink machines are manufactured in custom sizes as conveyor tunnel type or immersion type according to the speed of your production line and package dimensions.

Material Quality: Fully compliant with food hygiene standards, certified AISI 304 quality stainless steel body and internal components.

Heating System: Electric resistance or steam heating options that quickly raise the water temperature to the desired level.

Precise Control: Fully adaptable to different film thicknesses with an adjustable digital thermostat (0–95°C) and conveyor speed control (inverter).  

Heat Distribution: A high-efficiency circulation pump ensures the water inside the tunnel remains at an equal temperature throughout.

Conveyor Structure: Stainless steel wire belt or special PVC belt options that safely transport cheese packages and are resistant to moisture and heat.

Insulation: Energy savings and external surface safety thanks to an insulation layer that traps heat inside the body.

Geo Compatibility: Electrical panel and mechanical chassis with increased leak-proofing, suitable for highly humid packaging rooms.

Areas of Application and Advantages

Areas of Application:

Cheddar Cheese Packaging Lines: Visual correction and leak testing after vacuuming.

Dairy Plants: Vacuum-packed products such as block cheese, string cheese, and sliced cheese.

Food Packaging Plants: Shrink wrapping processes for meat and delicatessen products.

Delicatessen Production Centres: All vacuum packs where shelf appearance is critical.

Advantages:

• Excellent Shelf Appearance: Eliminates wrinkles in the packaging film, ensuring the product looks clear and bright, increasing its sales value.
• Durable Packaging: The film tightly wraps the product, reducing the risk of packaging tears and air ingress during transport.
• High Energy Efficiency: Maintains water temperature with minimal energy consumption thanks to intelligent heat control and an insulated body.
• Easy Integration: Ergonomic and modular design that can be connected directly after vacuum packaging machines.
• Hygienic and Long-Lasting: Entirely made of stainless steel, it is corrosion-resistant, easy to clean, and has low maintenance costs.
