Common Questions

Shrink wrap machines can save a lot of time and money in your business, but when equipment goes down, it can really disrupt production. Some of the most important things to monitor are the regular wear items on your machine, which typically include Teflon Tape, Heat Wire, Silicone Backing Strip, and the T Channel Gasket. These components wear out the quickest and cause real production issues if not replaced regularly. It’s an easy way to manage your shrink wrap machine maintenance in house. Summit’s expert team will walk through all of these important tips at installation. Additionally, our team is available for routine and emergency on-site servicing, as well as phone support for smaller maintenance troubleshooting. We will teach you the skills you need to keep your machine in excellent condition and offer immediate support if something goes wrong.
