Frequently Asked Questions About Pulp Molding Machines

A pulp molding machine is an industrial system used to produce molded fiber products such as egg trays, fruit trays, coffee cup carriers, and industrial paper packaging. It utilizes recycled waste paper as raw material, which is pulped, molded, dried, and pressed into various packaging products. These machines are eco-friendly solutions for sustainable packaging needs.

Common raw materials include waste cartons, old newspapers, office paper, and other recycled paper products. Water is reused in a closed-loop system to minimize consumption. The pulp mixture can be adjusted with additives for specific product requirements such as water resistance or enhanced strength.

Capacity depends on the model and configuration. Semi-automatic machines typically produce 1,000–2,000 pieces per hour, while fully automatic production lines can reach 5,000–8,000 pieces per hour or more. Custom configurations are available for specific production requirements.

Power consumption varies by configuration and drying method. A small semi-automatic line typically consumes 30–50 kW, while a fully automatic line may require 80–150 kW. Modern energy-efficient designs and renewable energy integration options are available to reduce operational costs.
