The Galaxy One-Step Shrink Wrap Machine and Options

Galaxy Basic Shrink Bag System   Galaxy For Shrink Film   Other Shrink Wrap Solutions
   Examples of Shrink Wrap

The different ways the Galaxy can be configured are pictured here. The first group designated the Basic Galaxy is for use with shrink bags only. The Basic machines do not have the ability to use shrink film. The second group all have the film support and product entry tray for using centerfold shrink film.
Shrink Bags: Easy to use, simply place your product into the bag, put as many bags as will fit across sealing area, close lid and machine finishes sealing end of bag and shrinking down on product. Use polyolefin bags for food items. PVC bags can be used for non-food items.
Shrink Film: Still easy to use. The machine simply makes a bag from centerfold shrink film then shrinks it the same as above. Easier to use if packing a number of different size items. Slide item into film on entry tray and then over to shrinking area, close lid and Galaxy seals around film and shrinks down on product. One item at a time is produced. The maximum film width that can be used is 21". Like shrink bags, centerfold shrink film comes in food safe Polyolefin and PVC.
