Stacking System

 
 
 
 

Depending on your product type and factory layout, the machine can be configured with two types of stacking systems:

Belt Type Cup Stacker (for cups)

Belt Type Cup Stacker (for cups)

The belt-type cup stacker is a reliable and high-speed stacking system designed specifically for lightweight plastic cups. After forming and cooling, the plastic cups are blown downward from the mold and land directly on a guided conveyor belt. As they move forward, the cups are directed into stacking channels, where they are neatly aligned.

Robotic Pick-and-Place System (for containers)

Robotic Pick-and-Place System (for containers)

The robotic pick-and-place system offers a flexible and precise stacking solution for plastic thermoforming lines, particularly suited for heavier, rigid, or irregularly shaped containers. Unlike belt-type stackers, this system uses robotic arms equipped with vacuum suction heads to pick and place them accurately into predefined stacking or sorting positions.

As a reliable plastic cup thermoforming machine manufacturer, we serve customers in various industries including food packaging, beverage production, consumer goods manufacturing, etc.

FAQ
  • Q: Can your machines be integrated into a full cup production line?

    A: Absolutely. We provide turnkey cup production solutions including sheet extruders, stacking units, counting systems, and packaging conveyors.

  • Q: Can you customize the mold to our cup design?

    A: Yes, we offer mold customization based on your cup drawing, logo, and required dimensions. OEM/ODM services are available.

  • Q: How plastic cup thermoforming machine manufacturer ensure the quality of your equipment?

    A: Our plastic cup thermoforming machines are equipped with precise temperature control systems and stretching servo motors from YASKAWA (Japan), ensuring stable and consistent heating across the plastic sheet.

    The system integrates an industrial-grade PLC and HMI from Siemens (Germany), offering high-level automation, accurate control, and intuitive operation.

    Our quality assurance doesn't stop at machine design. We conduct strict performance testing on each unit before shipment and offer operator training to ensure the machine delivers optimal results under real production conditions.

  • Q: What's the range of a plastic cup thermoforming machine price?

    A: The price of a plastic cup thermoforming machine varies significantly based on production capacity, automation level, and customization needs. Generally, you can expect:

    • Basic semi-automatic models: $30,000–$50,000 (suitable for small-scale production).

    • Mid-range automatic machines: $50,000–$150,000 (higher output, better energy efficiency).

    • High-speed, fully automated lines: $150,000–$300,000+ (for large-scale manufacturers with advanced features like robotic stacking and IoT monitoring).

    For cost-conscious buyers, sourcing directly from manufacturers can offer significant savings—typically 20–40% lower than dealer prices, with additional benefits such as customized machine configurations, bulk-order discounts, and technical support & warranty.

  • Q: What types of products can your plastic cup thermoforming machines manufacture?

    A: Our plastic cup thermoforming machines are widely used to produce a range of packaging products, including plastic beverage cups, ice cream cups, clear plastic cups, plastic bowls, plastic trays & plates, and plastic lids, etc.
    We also support custom mold development to meet specific design or application requirements, if you have a specific packaging concept, feel free to send us a sample or design drawing.
