Pulp wine trays are eco-friendly packaging materials made from waste paper, cartons, and similar materials using pulp molding technology. They are widely used for protecting and transporting wine products, especially glass-bottled wines. Compared to traditional foam packaging, pulp wine trays are more environmentally friendly, biodegradable, and offer good cushioning, making them a better fit for modern green packaging needs. This is why specialized pulp wine tray making machines have been developed.

A pulp wine tray making machine is industrial equipment designed to produce molded pulp wine trays. It uses processes like vacuum forming, pressing, and drying to shape the pulp into various tray designs.

This machine plays an important role in modern green packaging production lines, and is especially suitable for making trays for glass bottles such as wine, champagne, and liquor.

Main structure of the pulp wine tray making machine

The pulp wine tray making machine mainly includes the Pulping System, Forming System, Drying System, and Packing System.

  • Pulping System: This includes a pulper, water tank, and mixer. It mixes waste paper with water to make smooth pulp. It is connected to a pulp concentration control device.
  • Forming System: This uses suction molds to shape the pulp under negative pressure. The mold consists of upper and lower parts, which can be quickly changed to fit different wine bottle trays. The forming drive can be hydraulic or pneumatic.
  • Drying System: After forming, the wet trays are dried at high temperatures. There are six drying methods to choose from: natural drying, drying oven, brick-built drying room, or multi-layer metal drying. This ensures the trays are stable in size and smooth on the surface.
  • Packing System: Trays can be counted and stacked using a stacker, then packed for delivery.

How does the pulp wine tray forming machine work?

Similar to the egg tray making machine, the pulp wine tray forming machine adopts pulp forming technology. It follows a pulp forming process where the pulp is injected into a mold. Then, the tray is formed by vacuum suction, heat dried, and formed into a tray of special strength and design.

The main working steps also are: pulping → forming → drying → packaging.
