The Optimax SC168 heat shrink chamber machine is a professional packaging machine designed to seal and shrink products in one simple and efficient operation. With its large chamber and sealing area, the SC168 is suitable for businesses requiring increased capacity and reliable shrink wrapping performance.
The machine provides a professional finish while helping protect products from dust, moisture and general handling during storage, distribution and transportation.
The Optimax SC168 combines heat sealing and shrinking into a single packaging process, making it easy to achieve a neat and consistent finished package.
The product is placed inside suitable centre-fold shrink film and positioned within the sealing area. Once the chamber lid is closed, the machine seals the film and then circulates heated air around the product, shrinking the film tightly around the package.
This creates a secure and professional finish suitable for a wide range of commercial and industrial packaging applications.
The 500 x 600mm sealing area provides substantial capacity for larger products and packaging formats. This makes the SC168 particularly suitable for businesses that need to shrink wrap products that cannot be accommodated by smaller chamber machines.
The larger chamber also makes it possible to process a wider range of product sizes while maintaining the straightforward operation associated with chamber shrink wrapping.

The Optimax SC168 is suitable for use with compatible PVC and polyolefin shrink film, providing flexibility when selecting the right shrink film for different products and applications.
Polyolefin shrink film is widely used for commercial packaging because of its clarity, strength and professional appearance.
The Optimax SC168 is designed for businesses requiring more capacity than smaller chamber machines can provide.
It is suitable for:
The SC168 can be used to shrink wrap a wide variety of products, including:
Shrink wrapping provides a clean and professional finish while helping protect packaged products during storage and transportation.
Heat shrink packaging provides an attractive and professional finish that is particularly useful for retail, promotional and customer-facing products.
As the film shrinks around the product, it conforms closely to the shape of the package. This can help keep product bundles together while providing an additional layer of protection against dust and general handling.
The Optimax SC168 allows sealing and shrinking to be completed within the same chamber, helping simplify the packaging process.
The operator places the product inside the shrink film, positions it within the sealing area and closes the chamber. The machine then completes the sealing and shrinking cycle.
This makes the SC168 a practical solution for businesses that require consistent shrink wrapping without investing in a fully automated packaging line.
The Optimax SC168 heat shrink chamber machine provides a larger working area for businesses that need to package bigger products or handle higher volumes.
Its combination of a large sealing area, straightforward chamber operation and compatibility with commonly used shrink films makes it a versatile addition to a commercial packaging operation.
