Description
The Jiuyi Disposable Paper Plate Making Machine is an automated forming system engineered for continuous manufacturing of paper plates, trays, and shallow bowls from single-side PE-coated paper, raw kraft paper, or biodegradable sugarcane bagasse. Operating at speeds up to 80 pieces per minute, this system converts flat paper blanks into rigid, stackable tableware through a combination of mechanical pressing and pneumatic indexing.
Designed for paper converting plants and food packaging manufacturers, the machine integrates a PLC control panel, automated paper feeding, constant-temperature heating molds, and an automatic collecting counter. It processes paper weights ranging from 150 GSM to 1000 GSM, accommodating diameter specifications from 5 inches to 12 inches.
Product Advantages
Rigid Frame Architecture: Constructed from 20-mm thick Q235 carbon steel plate welded frames that undergo high-temperature annealing and shot blasting, eliminating structural vibration during high-speed cycling to extend mold lifespan.
Precision Thermal Pressing: Built-in cartridge heaters with independent PID temperature controllers maintain constant mold face temperatures (+/- 2 deg C), preventing paper sticking and ensuring crisp rim embossing.
Pneumatic Power System: Utilizes pneumatic cylinders paired with an air surge tank to deliver consistent downforce, reducing energy consumption compared to continuous hydraulic pump operations.
Quick-Change Tooling Interface: Mold assemblies feature a standardized slot-and-bolt mounting configuration, allowing operators to complete size or shape changeovers within 30 minutes.
Integrated Safety Interlocks: Equipped with physical safety guards, emergency stop pushbuttons, and optical sensor curtains that halt machine cycles immediately upon intrusion.

FAQ
Q: Engineering Advisory: Material Curling Prevention
A: When converting single-side PE-coated paper under high ambient humidity, differential thermal expansion can cause plate rims to curl. Jiuyi engineers address this by incorporating adjustable pre-heating dwell timers into the PLC program, allowing trapped moisture to vent evenly before the final cold-stamping phase.
Q: What is the minimum order quantity (MOQ) for custom mold shapes?
A: Standard units include one mold set. Custom rim patterns or non-standard geometrical molds require a minimum tooling order of one set, with lead times ranging from 10 to 15 business days.
Q: Can this machine process 100% recycled paper or biodegradable bagasse?
A: Yes, provided material moisture content is maintained between 8% and 12% within the 150-1000 GSM range. Bagasse requires specialized heated matched dies to ensure proper fiber bonding.
Q: What is the typical lifespan of the forming molds?
A: Molds are machined from high-grade alloy steel or aluminum bronze. With routine cleaning and lubrication, standard molds yield between 3,000,000 and 5,000,000 press cycles before requiring resurfacing.
Q: How long does a complete mold changeover take?
A: An experienced operator can swap upper and lower mold assemblies, adjust proximity sensors, and recalibrate the feeding stroke in 25 to 30 minutes.
Q: What power supply is required for export shipments?
A: Electrical systems are built to order. Standard configurations support 380V/50Hz/3-Phase. Alternate configurations for 220V, 415V, or 480V/60Hz utilize certified transformers and circuit breakers.
