Plastic Glass Making Machine

TFC-730 plastic glass making machine is designed to produce cup shape products. This plastic cup thermoforming making machine have high productin efficiency with its forming and cutting two-in-one station. Controlled by microcomputer, this cup thermoforming machine can completes the plastic cup production at one time by conveying, heating, forming and cutting, and sheet waste winding.

Especially for molding different plastics sheets including PP, PET, PS and PLA, that's why our plastic glass cup making machine is the best solution. Milk cups, jelly cups, ice cream cups, drink cups, and food bowls are some of the many packing products it makes.

Plastic Glass Making Machine of Parameters

Structure & Design

 

Heating Device

The 2500mm German heater has 42 zones (39 upper, 13 lower) with automatic module control and solid-state relay output for precise regulation (±1°C). Ceramic far-infrared elements provide efficient, safe heating. Vertical infrared sensors alarm against overheating to prevent sheet melt.

 

Operation Screen

The entire system utilizes a B&R central controller (with Chinese and English programming) and a human-machine interface. It boasts a high degree of integration, precise control, and ease of operation.

 

Mould Part

The upper mold table has a motor-driven sprocket lift for ±5 mm height adjustment to fit various closing heights. Water/air lines are built into the table for quick mold changes and a cleaner layout. Stretching uses a servo-driven high-precision ball screw with programmable, accurate positioning.

 

Flipping Cup Receiving Device

The cup receiving system utilizes a servo motor drive and a self-developed V-shaped flipping mechanism, enabling rapid cup suction, flipping, and stacking, suitable for products of various calibers and cup heights.

 

Cup Sweeping and Pushing Device

Both the cup sweeping and pushing devices are controlled by servo motors. They can quickly sweep the products onto the conveyor belt when the counted number of products is reached, based on the number of rows of formed products.

 

Cup Conveyor Belt

The cup conveyor belt is driven by a servo motor to rise and fall, and the cups are received according to the number of rows of formed products.

Advantages of Plastic Glass Making Machine

1. Efficient Automated Production: With speeds up to 35 cycles per minute, the machine enables continuous production with less manual labor, boosting daily output and overall efficiency.
2. Stable Hydraulic Forming: The hydraulic system delivers consistent pressure in every cycle, ensuring uniform shapes, clear contours, and stable dimensions while reducing defects and improving batch consistency.
3. Large and Flexible Forming Capacity: The forming area ranges from 660 × 300 mm to 800 × 550 mm, with a maximum depth of 280 mm. This accommodates multi-cavity molds for producing cups, bowls, lids, and other plastic containers.
4. Even Heating and Less Material Waste: Heating power up to 135 kW provides fast, uniform heating. Stable temperature distribution prevents incomplete forming, uneven stretching, and excess scrap, improving both quality and material yield.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. What materials can a plastic glass making machine handle?
Most modern plastic cup making machines can handle a wide range of materials, including PP, PVC, PS, and PET. This versatility allows manufacturers to produce different types of cups to meet market demands.

2. What's the difference between an automatic machine and a fully automatic machine?
Automatic machines require some manual intervention, such as loading materials and removing finished products. Fully automatic machines handle the entire production process-from material feeding to finishing-without any human input, which boosts efficiency.

3. How much does a plastic cup making machine cost?
The cost of a disposable glass manufacturing machine typically ranges from $21,000 to $25,000 per unit. Prices may vary depending on the machine's features, capacity, and the manufacturer's pricing strategy.

4. How fast do these machines produce cups?
Production speed varies by machine type and model. High-speed machines can produce thousands of cups per hour. Fully automatic machines are especially efficient, maximizing output while minimizing downtime.
