[0002] Heat shrink tubing is a special polyolefin heat shrink tubing, usually made of EVA material, with high-temperature shrinkage, soft flame retardancy, insulation and corrosion resistance. Heat shrink tubing is widely used for insulation protection of various wire harnesses, solder joints, inductors, and rust and corrosion protection of metal tubes and rods. Currently, heat shrink tubing is widely used in the production process of wire harnesses to achieve insulation and corrosion protection at the connection points of the wire harnesses. During the production process, workers usually put a section of heat shrink tubing on the connection points of the wire harnesses for operation. However, the heat shrink process has the following disadvantages:
