Protein Powder Tub Tamper Band Applicator questions
Can this be handled by an automatic sleeve applicator?
Often yes, but the answer depends on container stability, sleeve size, target speed and the required tunnel finish.
Do I need steam or hot air for this application?
The tunnel route depends on the container shape, film material and finish expectations. Shaped and full-body sleeves often need more careful tunnel testing.
What should I send for a recommendation?
Send container photos, dimensions, sleeve artwork or band height, target output, line layout and any tamper-evident requirements.
Project support
Send pack samples, sleeve details and target output for a practical recommendation.
Lancing can review the container, sleeve material, tunnel route, output and integration requirements before suggesting a suitable sleeve applicator configuration.
