In this article, you will find the most common types of plastic pallet making machines and how to choose a suitable and cost effective type for your plastic pallet production. Here, we would talk about the following pallet machine types:
Plastic Pallet Injection Molding Machines
Plastic Pallet Thermoforming Molding Machines
Plastic Pallet Blow Molding Machines
Plastic Pallet Compression Molding Machines
Follow us to learn about the basics of these machines with videos and pictures where necessary.
1. Plastic Pallet Injection Molding Machines
The machine melts the plastic material and injects them to the pallet mould, after cooling, get the pallets with complex structure.
2. Plastic Pallet Thermoforming Molding Machines
It is about the vacuum thermoforming pallets, from the video, you can see that the plastic sheet shall be heated and then drawn into the mold by a vacuum.
3. Plastic Pallet Blow Molding Machines
This video is about the extrusion blow molding machine for pallets. The plastic material tube is extruded and then blowing on mould to shape the pallets. Which need further processes as well.
4. Plastic Pallet Compression Molding Machines
For this machine, it put plastic material heated to the mould, and press them, finally get the pallets.
The Machines' Comparing
Machine Type | Advantages | Disadvantages |
Plastic Pallet Injection Molding Machines | It suitable for large scale production. Could make more precision and complex pallets. | High equipment cost, longer cycle time. |
Plastic Pallet Thermoforming Molding Machines | lower equipment cost, faster cycle time. | Suitable for simple pallet production without high precision and complex structure. Usually, it require further process to get final pallets. |
Plastic Pallet Blow Molding Machines | Making pallets more lightweight with excellent resistance, especially at low temperature. (Suitable for various cold chain supply procedures) | Suitable for simple pallet production without high precision and complex structure. Possible secondary operations |
Plastic Pallet Compression Molding Machines | Low cost
| Long cycle time |
From what mentioned above, you could see that when choose the suitable pallet making machine, the pallet requirements, production capacity and production cost would be considered well.
If you find that you need the plastic pallet injection molding machines, welcome to contact us, we could provide the plastic injection machines and even the whole Plastic Pallet Production Lines.
