Recently, a set of PP Sheet Extrusion Line manufactured by AIRAYS (Wenzhou Rayshape Machinery Co., Ltd.) was successfully delivered and put into production in the Dominican Republic. The customer completed the whole installation, wiring, commissioning and trial production independently within only 3 days, without on-site support from our engineers, marking another successful case of AIRAYS equipment’s easy operation, high stability and user-friendly design.
This PP sheet extrusion line is specially designed for producing high-quality PP plastic sheets, which are widely used in thermoforming packaging, disposable tableware, food containers and other plastic products. The whole line features compact structure, stable performance, simple operation and intuitive control system, allowing customers to get started quickly.

With detailed English operation manual, electrical diagram, installation video and remote guidance from our technical team, the customer smoothly finished mechanical assembly, power connection, parameter setting and trial running in a short time. The equipment runs stably, the sheet output is uniform, and the production effect fully meets the expected standard.

The customer highly praised:
“The AIRAYS machine is well-designed, easy to install and operate. We finished commissioning by ourselves in 3 days. The sheet quality is excellent, and we are very satisfied!”
For a long time, AIRAYS has been committed to providing easy-to-use, high-efficiency and reliable plastic machinery solutions for global customers. Our equipment adopts standardized design, modular structure and simplified operation logic, which greatly reduces the difficulty of installation and commissioning. Even customers without professional experience can complete independent commissioning with basic guidance, saving time and cost of overseas engineer dispatch.
At present, AIRAYS PP sheet extrusion lines, thermoforming machines and supporting molds have been exported to more than 50 countries and regions including the Dominican Republic, Middle East, North Africa, Southeast Asia, etc., with stable quality and good reputation.
We will continue to focus on product upgrading and technical innovation, provide more convenient and efficient plastic machinery solutions for global customers, and help customers achieve efficient production and business growth.

Advantages Of Plastic Thermoforming Machines

Loading sheet part

Load automatically, lower human resource cost.

Proximity switch clever control, getting the rid of falling down of the sheet by conveying too fast.

Double stations, big diameter, reduce the frequency of changing sheet coil, improve the the production efficiency.

Max undertake roll of sheet

Weight:600kg, Diameter 800mm.

Feeding sheet part

Automatic feeding reduces human resource costs.

Actively transport the sheet and reduce the load on the conveying servo motor.

Cleverly control the proximity switch to prevent the sheet from falling too quickly during transportation.

Human-machine interface

Controlled by microcomputer and programmable controller (PLC), all action programs can be operated through the human-machine interface, simple and convenient, 15-inch touch screen.

Heater

1. Vacuum insulation cotton is installed in the heater, which has a fast reaction speed, short processing time and energy saving.

2. The furnace body is divided into two layers, the layout of the heating tiles is optimized, so that the plate is heated evenly.

Molding station

1. Mold changing auxiliary mechanism, using sliding guide rails and support rods to achieve fast mold change, saving time and effort.

2. Adopting high-power servo motor drive, high precision, high efficiency and low noise.

Molding mold

The working principle is a combination of positive and negative pressure, and some nylon plugs are used to assist stretching in the mold to make it have stronger molding ability.

There is cooling water in the mold cavity to speed up the cooling speed and make demolding easier.

Guide head structure

The workstation is supported by four columns (45# steel, hard chrome plated).

The integrated mold table (QT-600 steel) is made by a high-precision CNC milling machine. Therefore, it is wear-resistant, stable, and accurate, which prolongs the service life of the equipment.

A five-point-connecting-rod structure

This structure design provides more stable operation and faster speed.

Mold change structure

The punching hole station has the same mold changing structure as the cutting station.Greatly reduce mold change time and labor costs, improve production efficiency and safety factor, and provide convenience for your diversified product chain.

Servo motor

The station mold closing, forming auxiliary stretching, and pull-tab parts are all driven by servo motors, which have fast speed, low noise, high precision, and high efficiency.

Servo-controlled conveyor belt

Set conveyor belt parameters directly on the operation screen.

Freely adjust and control conveying length and speed.

Rewinding waste of edge sheet

Our multi-station thermoformers feature a winding unit with torque motor to efficiently collect the offcuts and wind them into a roll with one side retractable, which can be conveniently removed at the end of production.

This advanced waste management system improves operating efficiency and cleanliness, making multi-station thermoformers ideal for high-quality and sustainable production.
