It is an undeniable fact that pulp molded products, as a new environmentally friendly scientific machine product, are making great strides toward the society and are recognized and accepted by consumers. A variety of pulp products can be seen everywhere in the market, including disposable plates, lunch boxes, and boutique industrial packaging. For investors, the market goal is to obtain the greatest economic benefits from the production equipment of molded pulp products.

Today, let’s talk about whether it is possible to make IP package and tableware on the same production equipment.

Theoretically speaking, high end IP equipment can make tableware, but the manufacturing cost is extremely high, because the production cycle time of the IP machine, the small number of mold holes, and the high precision lead to mold manufacturing costs. In other hand,the tableware equipment can also be used for high end IP package, but only when the requirements for IP packaging are the same as tableware.
 
But the actual market situation is that there is a big difference in parameters between high end package products and tableware products, as follows:
 
High end IP:
a- rigidity  **********
b- density   **********
c- smoothness finishing  **********
d- precise dimension  **********
e- drafting angle  <3° or <1.5° even =0°
f- small R corners  R<3
g- food grade hygiene  not a must
h- costs sensitivity  ***
 
Tableware:
a- rigidity  ******
b- density   ******
c- smoothness finishing  ******
d- precise dimension  *****
e- drafting angle  >7° or even >12°
f- small R corners  R>7
g- food grade hygiene  a must
h- costs sensitivity  **********
 
According to the above description and comparison, it is possible to make IP package and tableware on the same equipment at the same time by changing molds when the requirements of the products produced are the same or similar.
