Question 1

Is it possible to buy the sealing wand on its own?

Accepted Answer

Yes it is, though it needs the associated teflon pad, or other such flexible, heat-proof surface to work on, or it will only seal...and not cut. You can see this at  http://www.nationalshrinkwrap.com/parts-supplies.html

Question 2

Where do I specify the type of film I want?

Accepted Answer

Tubular film is available in PVC only, which may or may not be the best film for what you want to wrap....which is?....

Question 4

I wish to wrap boxes of fudge measuring 6 1/2" x 3 1/2" x 2" deep.  Will this machine do the job?

Accepted Answer

The 14" system will wrap 2 of these boxes at once, requiring only 3 seals to do so, and will only take 1-2 minutes.If you lay the boxes out in two columns of 3 cartons each, with the 3.5" dimension running along the width of the film, the 18" system will wrap 6 such boxes in a single set of operations, requiring only 5 seals. With each seal taking approximately 1-2 seconds, and allowing a few minutes for the shrinking, the 6 boxes should take just about 3-4 minutes to complete, if your heat gun is warm and ready. In either case, PVC will give you the best looking finished product. It's easy to seal, quick to shrink and has a beautiful glossy finish. PVC will also give you the best protection from drying out. Your shelf life will dramatically improve...typically double, according to our other users wrapping fudge. Be sure to leave sufficient film around the edges where you will need to make a seal, about 2.5", so that your seals will be true, and then, you can use the heat gun to "guide" the seams towards the center of each of the carton's sides for a more professional look.
