American Film & Machinery (AFM), a provider of packaging equipment, announces the release of the AutoBandit, a fully integrated tamper-evident band applicator and shrink tunnel designed to meet the growing demand for reliable, automated product protection in food, pharmaceutical, and consumer goods industries.

The AutoBandit is a compact, all-in-one system that seamlessly applies and shrinks tamper-evident bands in a single pass. Designed for use with round, rectangular, oval, or uniquely shaped containers up to 9.85 inches in diameter and 5.9 inches in height, the AutoBandit is ideal for manufacturers seeking to replace manual application of preformed bands with an automated, consistent, and cost-saving solution.

Equipped with three processing zones—sealing, preheat, and shrink—the AutoBandit ensures a secure seal around containers. The three-zone process delivers a professional finish and tamper-evident protection with every cycle, reaching speeds of up to 30 containers per minute.

The AutoBandit offers substantial operational advantages. Utilizing single-wound rolls of film reduces material and labor costs, eliminates the need for custom tooling, and supports a wide range of package sizes without compromising efficiency. The system also features quick, tool-free changeovers, an intuitive user interface with recipe storage, and a space-saving footprint that fits seamlessly into most production environments.

Additional highlights include a robust shrink tunnel powered by high-velocity blower motors for uniform heat distribution, heavy-duty casters and leveling pads for plant mobility, and minimal training requirements for operation and maintenance.

The AutoBandit’s versatility makes it well-suited for applications across industries such as dairy, bakery, deli, candy, snacks, pharmaceuticals, nutraceuticals, and more. It offers a tamper-evident solution that enhances product safety and supports streamlined production and inventory management.
