Pneumatic Drawer Heat Shrink Machine for Sleeves up to Ø50 mm WM-685
Our WM-685 heats prepared sleeves and cable joints in a drawer-format chamber. The specification lists a 0–50 mm sleeve diameter, 0–100 mm sleeve length and a 100 × 120 × 74 mm heating area. Heating and cooling times are adjustable. The machine is rated at 2.0 kW with a 220 V, 50 Hz supply and a 0.6 MPa air connection; we confirm the chamber and heater arrangement with your sample.

Key features
- Bring repeat small assemblies into an enclosed heating area and set separate heating and cooling times.
- Use application-specific replaceable chambers when different joint shapes need a different heating arrangement.
- Match the chamber to the complete cable joint so sleeve recovery can be checked together with nearby insulation.
- We set the voltage for your country and ship the English interface and manual.
- For wear parts, every quote lists them with unit price and the location they ship from.
What it processes
- Heat shrinking pre-positioned sleeves over cable joints
- Batch preparation of terminal insulation sleeves
- Repeated local heating jobs using an application-specific chamber
The WM-685 uses a drawer-format heating area for prepared cable joints. A trial establishes the chamber arrangement, heating duration and cooling duration for the actual sleeve and the insulation around it.
Send the joint drawing, sleeve material, outside diameter and required heating length. We confirm clearance and utilities, then show the finished part before the machine configuration is agreed. For a WM-685 quote, share the sleeve size and the approximate dimensions of the part it covers. We'll check which configuration fits your assembly.

WM-685 — common questions
What workpiece size fits?
The listed sleeve range is 0–50 mm diameter and 0–100 mm length, with a 100 × 120 × 74 mm heating area. Send the complete joint and connector dimensions so we can confirm clearance and the chamber setup.
Which heating construction is supplied?
The specification describes resistance-wire heating and the process description also refers to annular infrared heating. We confirm the selected heater and chamber construction on the quote and demonstrate it with the actual sleeve.
What utilities are needed?
The listed supply is 220 V, 50 Hz with 2.0 kW machine power and 0.6 MPa compressed air. We confirm the country supply and workstation connections on the quote.
How is this different from a conveyor oven?
The drawer format suits localized joint heating in a chamber. For sleeves carried continuously through a heated passage, compare WM-691 and choose by the complete workpiece size and loading method.
How do we approve the process?
Send the sleeve and complete joint. We show the heated part, the cooling sequence and the finished recovery on video before ordering. For wear parts, every quote lists them with unit price and the location they ship from.
