What is plastic thermoforming machine?
A thermoforming machine is a type of automated equipment widely used in the plastics processing industry. It primarily heats thermoplastic sheets to a softened state, then applies air or mechanical pressure to form them into molds. Finally, they cool and shape them into the desired product. This equipment boasts high efficiency, precision, and energy efficiency, making it suitable for a variety of industries, including food packaging, medical devices, daily necessities, and electronic components.
The main workflow of a thermoforming machine includes sheet conveying, heating and softening, forming (positive or negative pressure, or die pressing), cooling, demolding, cutting, and then stacking by a robotic arm. Depending on the product's production process, various models are available, including positive and negative pressure forming multi-station all-in-one machines, negative pressure forming multi-station all-in-one machines, single-station thermoforming machines, and thick sheet thermoforming machines. Its core advantages lie in high production efficiency, low mold costs, and the ability to rapidly produce complex products. It also supports the processing of a variety of materials, including PP, PS, PET, and PVC, making it an essential piece of plastics processing equipment in daily life.

Self-developed and mastering core technologies

 

 

1 to 1 precise temperature control

Utilizing multi-stage PID intelligent temperature control technology, coupled with a high-precision infrared sensor, this machine achieves ±1°C temperature differential control, ensuring uniform heating of the sheet, preventing localized overheating or cooling, and significantly improving molding accuracy and product consistency.

 

5-Minute Quick Mold Change

Equipped with a patented quick-change mold system, one person can complete mold replacement within 5 minutes. It supports multi-cavity combination mode and flexibly adapts to different product requirements (such as cup lids, trays, and blister packaging), reducing downtime and improving production efficiency by more than 30%.

 

Intelligent AI control system

The integrated intelligent AI control system provides 24/7 real-time monitoring of the equipment's operating status. Memory storage and access are quick and easy, allowing even factories without professional operators to easily complete order production. One-click start-up is simple, and remote factory assistance is available for peace of mind.

 

How it works (Complete sheet extrusion assembly and working principle)

The complete fully automated production of thermoforming machines consists of 10 key components, each of which plays a specific role and is seamlessly integrated to achieve precise and efficient production requirements.
