Axon, powered by Pro Mach, has introduced the new Thermodash steam tunnel. Thermodash is the first in a series of steam tunnels from Axon designed to conserve energy and water while enabling high-quality shrink-sleeve labeling on lines running at up to 100 cpm.
Thermodash can operate on as little as 4 kW of electricity and 3 gal of water/hr. It is sized for containers up to 4-in.-wide and 10-in.-tall. Customers can work with Axon on a custom Thermodash should their container size exceed these parameters.
Thermodash features stainless-steel double-wall construction for years of reliable and safe operation. A cantilevered cover provides easy access to tunnel components. Thermodash is designed for quick changeover and is available in one- and two-zone configurations. A compact steam-generating system rated at 15 psi (1.05 kg/cm²) is integrated on the back of the unit.
