Three-Station Plastic Thermoforming Machine

TTF-520A is LITAI MACHINERY's star product, It is a plastic sheet forming equipment with mechanical, pneumatic and electrical integrated design. It can automatically complete all actions such as loading, feeding, heating, forming, punching, cutting, stacking, finished product transportation, and edge material winding. Its aluminum rail and chains bring higher heating-resistance.As for heating area,its uniform heating brings high efficiency. Lower noise,high effciency,high speed,easy to adjust stretching stroke and other advantages push TTF-520A a useful and popular machine. Equiped with chiller,air tank and air compressor,surely TTF-520A is a wothy choice for every client.
It is suitable for processing different materials, such as PP, PS, HIPS, PET, PVC, PLA etc. processing high transparency, high stretch, shallow stretch, round, square, upper and lower two-way stretch, flanged and other products, including trays, lids, fruit and vegetable boxes, flower pots, shells, seedling trays and plates, etc.

Parameters of Three-Station Plastic Thermoforming Machine

Plastic Cup Forming Process

As shown in the figure below, the production process of plastic cups roughly includes sheet extrusion, heating, forming and trimming, stacking, forming, etc. A plastic cup making machine can complete the process from heating to forming the sheet. Sheet extruders process plastic pellets into sheet rolls.
