Three Products That Can Benefit from Shrink Bundling and Wrapping
Forming Shoe Wrapper
Protect your product, keep its integrity, and withstand shipping and handling. For unique applications where speed and efficiency are the top priority.
EDL’s Forming Shoe packaging machine utilizes a unique wrapping technique that produces a totally enclosed pack. Product, typically a stacked, nested or tightly wound material, is driven through a shoe where film is fed around it until it is totally enclosed. Forming shoe systems can incorporate a shrink tunnel depending on the application.
Integrated Ancillary Equipment
Solving systems integration challenges.
EDL can provide total systems integration for our customers looking for a turn-key solution. EDL’s complete system engineering responsibility includes start to finish integration of systems from conveyors to palletizers and everything in between.
What Exactly is Ancillary Packaging Equipment?
Roll Wrapper
Package and protect your rolled products.
Roll Wrapping solutions for carpet, vinyl flooring, fabric, textiles, rubber, felt, and more. EDL’s roll wrapping machines are designed to wrap rolled products. Common applications include carpeting, foam padding, textiles and rolled building materials. The side feed layout of the roll wrapper allows for easy integration of additional modules for further system capabilities.
Shrink Tunnel
Heavy-duty, reliable and tailored to your product and package
Shrink tunnels are essential for achieving secure and professional packaging using shrink film. The heat applied in these tunnels causes the shrink film to tightly conform to product contours, ensuring long-lasting protection during transportation, storage, and display.
Our shrink tunnels, also known as heated shrink tunnels or shrink wrap tunnels, feature a high temperature-rated Habasit conveyor belt and a dual-shell hood design with ceramic fiber insulation for efficient heat retention. They include a direct drive overhead hot air blower and silicone entrance and exit curtains for precise heat distribution. Film cooling fans at the exit ensure a smooth finish.
- High temperature rated Habasit conveyor belt
- Dual shell tunnel hood design
- Ceramic fiber insulation between exterior and interior hood shells
- Ceramic fiber mat insulation between hood assembly and tunnel frame
- Direct drive overhead hot air recirculation blower
- Silicone tunnel entrance and exit curtains
- Film cooling fans at exit

Inline Automatic Wrapper
High-Performance Wrapping for Small to Large to Oversized Products
The EDL Inline Automatic Wrapper is a flexible and reliable shrink-wrapping solution engineered to meet a wide range of packaging needs. Built for performance, precision, and durability, this system provides dependable wrapping for both small and large products — from cartons and cases to oversized panels, windows, and doors.
Known for its versatility, the Inline Automatic Wrapper combines industrial-grade design with automated precision, delivering consistent packaging results while maximizing throughput and minimizing waste. For large-scale applications, the same machine configuration is often referred to as the Panel Wrapper, used for oversized or heavy products that require total protection during shipping and storage.
How It Works
Products are automatically loaded onto the infeed conveyor where sensors detect size and position. The wrapper centers each product and advances it through the film web and sealing area. A pack clamp gently holds the product while the sealing jaws close, creating a sleeve of LDPE film around it.
For shrink applications, the product then passes through a heat tunnel that pulls the film tight, forming a clean, secure wrap. When used for bagging, the film remains unshrunken, creating a protective enclosure ideal for products sensitive to heat or appearance changes.
From start to finish, the Inline Automatic Wrapper operates with consistent control — automatically measuring, centering, sealing, and discharging wrapped products for dependable, repeatable performance.
