PLA PS EPE XPS Disposable Foam Sheet Food Lunch Box Production Machine

Product overview

Core functionalities

Applicable scenarios

Unique advantages

  • Material Processing: Automatically produces disposable foam food containers using polystyrene (PS), expanded polyethylene (EPE), extruded polystyrene (XPS), and biodegradable polylactic acid (PLA).
  • Production Process: Utilizes a counter-rotating conical twin-screw extrusion system (screw L/D ratio 28:1, 38CrMoALA material) to ensure high-quality molding and consistent output of lightweight, insulating foam sheets and lunch boxes.

Key features

  • 1. Material Technology

    • With a corrosion-resistant 38CrMoAlA alloy screw, the machine processes polystyrene (PS), PLA, EPE, and XPS materials to produce durable, lightweight foam sheets and food containers.

  • 2. Interactive Design

    • With a counter-rotating conical twin-screw system, you can achieve precise material mixing and consistent extrusion quality, outperforming single-screw machines by 30%* in complex material processing.

  • 3. Performance Parameters

    • With a 28:1 L/D ratio screw, the machine ensures thorough material processing, delivering 25% higher output efficiency* than shorter L/D ratio models while maintaining uniform foam density.

  • 4. Scenario Solutions

    • With customizable output sizes and shapes, you can produce food containers tailored for home use (e.g., lunch boxes) or commercial applications (e.g., bulk takeout trays), expanding market reach by 50%* through diversified offerings.

  • 5. Certification Standards

    • With PLA compatibility and food-grade material options (PS/XPS), you can meet regulatory requirements for food packaging safety and sustainability.

Supplier's note

  1. Technical Breakthroughs:

    • Counter-rotating twin-screw: Reduces melt temperature variance by 10–15%, ensuring uniform foam density.
    • PLA/XPS dual-mode processing: Enables seamless switching between eco-friendly (PLA) and high-insulation (XPS) materials.
    • 38CrMoAla alloy screws: Extend tool life by 30% compared to standard steel, lowering maintenance costs.

  2. Version Selection Guidance:

    • Base Model: Ideal for small-to-medium food service businesses prioritizing cost-efficiency (e.g., cafes, local restaurants).
    • Advanced Model: Suitable for mid-scale operations requiring dual-material flexibility (e.g., caterers, regional distributors).
    • Pro Model: Recommended for large manufacturers needing high-volume, multi-material production (e.g., industrial packaging plants).

With the Pro Model’s 700 units/hour output and 25% energy savings, you can scale production while reducing operational costs. Its multi-material blending capability also opens opportunities for custom hybrid containers (e.g., PLA/XPS composites) that balance sustainability and thermal performance.
