A: This model is ideal for producing plastic cup lids (flat, dome, straw-insert types) and small blister packaging used in food, beverage, or cosmetics.

Q2: What materials are supported?

A: The machine is compatible with PET, PVC, HIPS, and PLA sheets. It is not suitable for PP due to PP’s high forming temperature requirements.

Q3: What is the forming area and depth?

A: The forming area is 450mm × 130mm, with a maximum forming depth of 46mm, making it suitable for high-speed production of small to medium-sized lids.

Q4: What is the typical output speed?

A: The machine operates at 15–35 cycles per minute, depending on mold design and material. With a 4–6 cavity layout, hourly output can exceed 9,000 lids.

Q5: Is mold customization available?

A: Yes, we offer custom mold services based on your product specifications or samples. Multi-cavity design and logo embossing are supported.
