If you want to invest in production lines of pulp molding eco-friendly tableware, you need to know the following points. If you want to be a degradable tableware dealer, purchase qualified pulp molded tableware, occupy more and more superior markets, more need to read the following items:
Disposable pulp molded environmental protection tableware is the daily necessities of the people’s livelihood, The blue ocean market, which is related to the implementation of national environmental protection policy, pulp molding tableware has a large market. It needs to rely on large-scale production, because of the low value of the unit product, that’s why it needs a high capital threshold and a large investment. Technology and equipment selection determines the success of the investment. The scale and automation of the factory, the maturity, and stability of the equipment, the professionalism of the technical staff, and even the geographical location of the plant and the layout of equipment installation, etc. Have a decisive significance to product performance and price, determine whether the factory in the industry based and long-term development, whether there are enough advantages to help dealers quickly seize the market, to provide customers with one-stop solutions.
Equipment selection
Pulp molding industry equipment improvement speed is very fast, to consider the plant after the establishment of sustainability issues, energy consumption, long-term labor costs are to be considered factors. The equipment selection stage does not be afraid of trouble, more inspection and more learning are necessary. Each equipment factory has advantages in the field, through the investigation and exchange, to get first-hand information.
Semi-automated equipment:
At present, most enterprises still use semi-automatic equipment, relative investment is small, can reduce investment risk, technical content is relatively low, maintenance is simple and easy to master, workers operate by skilled, production is relatively stable, But the operation of staff more hard physical consumption, production workers more, management in the primary level, the current group of workers are mostly 60, 70, 80, 90 workers in addition to the lower level of education groups. Manual operation of semi-automatic equipment physical strength, easy fatigue, personnel mobility, a large number of new staff replacement unskilled operation of product quality instability.
Initial automated trimming equipment:
Due to the shortage of labor, the annual wages of workers continue to grow, labor costs continue to increase, now many companies are upgrading semi-automatic equipment as:
Add row frame manipulators, a set of 100000-200000 RMB (excluding trimming), which can reduce 1 / 3 manpower. But the vacuum, the compressed air consumption is high, the electricity consumption is big because the rack manipulator production process is unstable, the failure rate is high. The output is 10% lower than manual operation, the waste rate increases 3-5%, resulting in the production cost increases.
Add robot with automatic trimming, a set of 400000-500000 RMB (including trimming), Can reduce 2 / 3 manpower, the production is more stable than the row rack manipulator, more suitable for all kinds of mass production orders and some high-end products, such as coffee cover, deep cavity cup products, product quality, and output stability. Because the investment ratio is suitable for the production of high-end cover high value-added products.
Installation of the external manipulator, need to install security fence, operation management, mold cleaning, replacement, maintenance, and repair affected, reduce production, high production costs. Product Cost Analysis: I. Need to cut the edge to lose 10% of the scrap; II. Increase the power consumption of trimming (recycled pulp beating) by 10%; III.high waste; IV. robot maintenance complex, highly professional.
Fully automated equipment
Paper pulp molding tableware automation equipment, in the production process molding, hot drying stereotypes is fixed metal mesh, molding blank using built-in manipulator without mesh transfer, hot press drying will not produce wire scraps metal mesh seriously affect product quality, Forming semi-automatic equipment production process belongs to the movable net, forming billet need to rely on manual transfer to the heat-drying mold, forming blank in manual transfer with the metal net will produce metal net debris seriously affect the product quality.
Fully automated equipment can complete a molding, billet using built-in manipulator transfer, hot press drying two processes, No cutting, no punching directly out of the finished product, reduce one-to-one equipment investment, minus the energy consumption of the cutting machine while avoiding the product due to the cutting of paper scraps impact product quality, It also reduces the probability of man-made pollution caused by contact with the product, one person can operate 2-3 sets of equipment, compared with semi-automatic equipment trimming product can reduce the operation labor by 65%, can eliminate the work injury caused by manual trimming, Production costs than semi-automated equipment trimming products can reduce production costs by 15%, which, the product trimming caused by a scrap of production costs, accounting for 10-12%.
At the same time, the use of fully automated equipment, but also enhances the daily production of pulp molded tableware, reduce the price of quantitative production products. Of course, the automation of pulp molding equipment must be combined with the process, same as “washboard + mechanical hand not equal to one washing machine.” Good automatic pulp molding equipment is not just a simple “manual molding machine + manipulator” that can be achieved.
Before selecting equipment, users need to know clearly the “disassembly cleaning cycle.”
Wet press pulp molding equipment, all need to remove the mold periodically to clean the carbon deposits, the production of meal kits and production of the automatic equipment for the automatic production of high-quality goods packages is different from the cleaning cycle. Because of the high price of high-quality goods package, focus on quality and light output, often to make an ideal product as the goal; Meal package production is different, have homogeneous competition, have comparability, win with yield, pay great attention to production costs, generally, the production of meal package automatic equipment usually dismantling mold cleaning cycle in 30 days or so. However, due to different equipment technology, the cleaning cycle is different. If the demoulding cleaning cycle is too short, it is not competitive. Before choosing the equipment, users need to understand clearly the problem of “dismantling the mold cleaning cycle.”
Before choosing equipment, users need to know whether there will be “black spots of carbonization” problem.
That “black spots of carbonization,” is in the production of paper pulp molding products process, the small carbonization fall on the surface of products (usually products back) from the upper die, attached to the surface of products as carbonized black spots. Due to different equipment production processes, some equipment run a week or so, products have “carbonization spots” appear. Need to remove mold for cleaning and eliminate this phenomenon.
To sum up, selection of production equipment must refer to their own principles.
Professional team
Production management must have professional technology personnel, be familiar with the pulp molding tableware industry-related technical requirements, and have independent innovation ability, Master the process route, process flow, process steps, process indicators, operating points, and process control from raw material input to tableware packaging. Make the manufacture of pulp molding tableware achieve excellence, ensure that every product from the factory outflow is qualified, protect the interests of distributors and end customers.
R&D team must have the ability of mold design, according to the different application scenarios of pulp molding tableware, the structure of tableware will be different requirements, In order to help dealers and other customer groups to win the market in time, it requires the factory to have the ability of independent research and development design, this is not only for the tableware product itself before the product is the mold design and manufacture, mold quality directly affects the product performance.
Resource advantages and transportation advantages
The advantage of resources is one of the important factors affecting the price of finished tableware. Pulp molding tableware factories need to have the resource advantage, not only to have high-quality raw materials, such as sugar cane pulp, bagasse pulp, bamboo pulp, etc. but also pay attention to all the resources needed for production and operation, for example artificial, water, electricity, gas, etc.
Transportation advantage is also needed to consider when the factory chooses the location, such as the distance from the seaport is relatively close to the place, whether by land, water, or air, can be a priority to find relatively low transportation costs.
