The BP-3030-6 Rotary Thermoforming Pulp Molding Machine represents the perfect balance of compact footprint, intelligent automation, and reliable industrial performance. This sophisticated system is engineered for manufacturers who need professional production capacity without dedicating extensive floor space or labor resources.

At the center of the machine’s efficiency lies the 6-station rotary configuration. Six rotary hot-press working molds maintain an uninterrupted production flow by continuously progressing through the stages of forming, pressing, drying, and cooling. Such rotary designs achieve high-capacity output within an impressively compact footprint of 3000×1600mm, in stark contrast to the larger footprint of 5000×1600mm required by linear designs. In these respects, the vertical rotary configuration is particularly suited to production facilities constrained by space.
Automation of the transfer process is done through an integrated robotic arm controlled by an intelligent, user-friendly touch screen where the operator can set production parameters. The operator can control the process and quality of the output through the interface, while the robotic arm performs the transfer process with uniform precision. Such automation not only streamlines operations to a single user but also reduces handling variability, which in turn, improves quality consistency.
The construction of this machine stands out in the market because of the premium quality components it employs. The machine’s electrical control components predict the high-performing Inovance Brand PLC (Programmable Logic Controller) integrated along the spindle servo motors configured within the control system. The servo motors accomplish the mechanized control of the rotary table with integration of advanced positional control systems. This enables the system to synchronize with the entire system to meet the production parameters hold control within a defined set.
The frame places apart the system’s intrinsic value. The construction uses advanced engineering principles. The frame consists of welded manganese steel plates, which are later quench tempered. This results in a manganese steel frame of superior quality. The frame retains alignment and positional accuracy, even with high workloads. The system exerts 3 to 5 tons of pressure with a hot press across 6 stations working in tandem.
This machine is optimal for small- and mid-sized businesses since, with six active molds, it produces between 150 and 250 kilograms of output daily. The 300×300 millimeter molds, which are ideally designed for standard packaging, accommodate products of varying sizes, including those with an 80 millimeter height. The twin 3 KW heating elements (totaling 6 KW) are energy efficient while providing enough thermal energy to meet the requirements for the smallest mold.
With a high degree of automation and compact design, this machine is best suited for those businesses transitioning from fully manual or semi-automatic systems, for work environments where space is minimal, and for businesses where automation and labor cost rationalization are the most important.
Q1: How does the robotic arm integration work?
The robotic arm is connected to order and transfer products between the rotary stations of different processing phases: forming, pressing, and then cooling, which eliminates manual transfer at a critical control point. It is automated and controlled via a smart touch screen, where an operator can command it to work in sync with the 6-station rotary system. This allows for a single operator to control the entire system while providing consistent handling to avoid damaging the products and automated flow of work.
Q2: Why are the components of the Inovance Brand important?
Inovance has built a reputation as a major player in industrial automation, particularly PLC systems, and precision servo motors. These components determine the accuracy with which systems automate the control of the rotation, pressure, and temperature of systems. The servo motors’s positional accuracy is crucial for the rotary synchronization, while the PLC controls the operation automation, cascades the control, and allows easy touchscreen adjustments in the control configuration.
Q3: Why is the manganese steel frame with quenching important?
Manganese steel is far more tough and resistant to wear than typical steel. The quenching heat treatment process positively alters the steel to make it much more durable. This type of construction is much more effective as it has a much higher probability of helping the frame maintain its shape and mathematical alignment during operation under load of several tons pressure, and with no warping of the frame.
Q4: What products can this machine manufacture?
The 300×300mm mold produces a wide range of molded fiber products which consist of food containers, egg cartons, cup carriers, small trays, protective packaging inserts, and eco-friendly tableware up to 80mm height. The compact mold size is optimized for common packaging dimensions across food service, retail, and consumer goods industries.
Q5: What are the spatial, power, and support requirements?
The footprint is only 3000×1600mm with a 2375mm height clearance, which is much smaller than the linear systems. The machine has 6 KW heating power (dual 3 KW elements) and also needs operational power for the rotation and robotics. A standard industrial electrical supply is needed. We deliver complete training in robotic operation, touch screen control, and maintenance. We also provide installation, a warranty on all parts and components (including Inovance systems), and ongoing technical support (including Inovance systems).
