A paper cup is a kind of paper container made by mechanically processing and gluing raw paper, and its appearance is cup-shaped. Paper cups can be used to hold boiling water, ice cream, jam, butter, etc. The single-use paper cup is safe, hygienic, lightweight, and convenient. Disposable paper cups can be divided into three types according to their usage, cold drink cups, hot drink cups, and ice cream cups. The coating used in paper cups, it can also be divided into three types, wax-coated cups, polyethylene-coated cups, and straight-wall double-layer cups.
Paper cup making related machinery
What is the specific production equipment for producing disposable paper cups? The following is a detailed description.
- The production of paper cups begins with this large roll of paper, whose inner wall is coated with a layer of polyethylene waterproof film, while the outer layer of paper can be printed with various text or patterns according to requirements.
- After the pattern printing is completed, the paper cutter will cut the paper into individual cardboard, and the size of the cutting depends on the size of the paper cup. Every piece of paper that is cut will eventually become a paper cup.
- Then they will fall neatly on the conveyor belt and line up. At this time, the computer system will calculate their number, and then divide them into groups of 200. Then they will fall in batches to the conveyor below, and then neatly are sent to the hands of the operator, who will place them on another conveyor belt, and they will gradually enter the inlet of the paper cup making machine under vibration.
- At the same time, it needs fully automatic paper cup manufacturing machine to make the bottom of the paper cup. The machine will pull the paper into the entrance of the punching machine, and the punching machine will automatically punch out the original piece of the cup bottom on the paper, which will leave The next long waste paper, they will enter the recycling department of the factory through the suction device next to it.
- At the same time, the paper cup making machine on the other side is working quickly. First, the mechanical gripper will place the paper pieces one by one on the rotating turntable, and the gripper on the turntable will quickly bend the paper pieces and press them on the paper cup mold. After sealing with a heat gun, a disposable paper cup without a bottom is completed.
- The next step is the most critical step. The machine will automatically push the stamped film into the bottom of the cup, and melt the sealant in the appropriate place to seal it.
Finished cups are pushed into chutes, where machines bend the edges of the paper cups into a lip to keep the liquid from spilling. When multiple paper cups are stacked together, it will also be more convenient for people to carry.
- Afterward, these paper cups will be pumped into the upper pipeline for decomposition. Each pipeline here comes from a different production line. They will accurately classify paper cups of different sizes and then fall to the counter below to start counting the number of paper cups.
- Once calculated, the cups are sent directly to the packaging department.
Once packed, they are ready for final shipping.
Paper Cup Production Suggestions
At present, except for large-scale manufacturers who independently complete all processes, most investors entrust the two processes of printing and die-cutting to outsource the processing at the beginning. Firstly, the initial investment can be reduced; secondly, the printing process is highly professional, and the quality can be guaranteed by professional printing factories; thirdly, the production speed of one printing machine and flat creasing machine (die-cutting) can match four paper cup forming machines, otherwise, the device will be idle.
Why are paper cup machines so popular?
YG's paper cup machines have been exported to more than 80 countries and regions in the world, and are widely welcomed and praised by customers. Why is the YG paper cup machine so popular?
