PP Honeycomb Sheet Machine

This PP Honeycomb Sheet Machine integrates automatic raw material processing, multi-layer co-extrusion, honeycomb forming, precision straightening and customized cutting into a continuous production line. It specializes in manufacturing lightweight, high-load-bearing PP honeycomb sheets with a unique hexagonal honeycomb core structure, supporting flexible adjustments of sheet thickness (3-12mm), width (up to 1600mm) and gram weight (500-5000GSM) to meet diverse industrial needs.​

 

 

Description

As a professional PP Honeycomb Sheet Machine, it adopts an advanced multi-unit collaborative production process to solve common pain points of traditional honeycomb sheet production, such as uneven core structure and low bonding strength. The production process starts with an automatic feeding system: raw materials (PP granules + functional masterbatches for anti-static/flame retardant) are dried and conveyed to the co-extrusion unit, which uses a multi-screw extrusion design to independently control the melting and flow of surface layers, bonding layers and honeycomb core layers—ensuring each layer’s material properties match its functional requirements.​

The molten material is then injected into a precision honeycomb forming mould, where it is shaped into a hexagonal honeycomb core structure under the action of vacuum adsorption and temperature control. After forming, the honeycomb core is combined with surface layers via a hot-press composite unit, with adjustable composite pressure to ensure firm bonding without delamination. A dual-stage traction system (primary for shaping, secondary for stable conveying) maintains consistent sheet thickness, while a heating-tempering unit eliminates internal stress to prevent warping. Finally, the high-precision cutting unit trims edges and cuts the sheet into customized lengths, with an optional edge recycling system to maximize material utilization.​

Feature

  • Multi-layer co-extrusion design: Independently controls surface layers, bonding layers and honeycomb core layers, enabling targeted optimization of each layer’s strength, rigidity and functionality (e.g., anti-static surface layers + high-load-bearing core layers).​
  • Precision honeycomb forming: Adopts vacuum adsorption + temperature-controlled moulding, ensuring uniform hexagonal honeycomb structure, consistent cell size and high core layer integrity—enhancing the sheet’s load-bearing capacity.​
  • Flexible customization: Supports adjusting sheet thickness (3-12mm), width (up to 1600mm) and gram weight (500-5000GSM); can add functional masterbatches to meet anti-static, flame-retardant or UV-resistant requirements.​
  • High efficiency & material saving: Equipped with an energy-saving extrusion system and optional edge recycling unit, reducing power consumption by over 20% and material waste to less than 5%—suitable for large-volume continuous production.​
  • Stable product performance: Dual-stage traction + heating-tempering process ensures flat sheets with no warping; the honeycomb structure provides excellent impact resistance and compression resistance, with a service life 3-5 times longer than ordinary PP flat sheets.​
  • Intuitive intelligent control: Equipped with a touchscreen HMI + PLC control system, realizing real-time monitoring of production parameters (temperature, speed, thickness) and automatic fault prompts—simplifying operation and reducing manual intervention.​

Application

The PP honeycomb sheets produced by this machine leverage the "lightweight, high-strength, cost-effective" advantages of the honeycomb structure, with core applications in:​

  • Building & construction: Used as partition boards for interior decoration, temporary wall panels for construction sites and ceiling panels for commercial spaces. The honeycomb structure reduces weight by 40% compared to solid boards, while the high rigidity ensures stable installation—lowering transportation and construction costs.​
  • Packaging for heavy-duty goods: Made into heavy-duty turnover boxes for auto parts (engines, transmissions) and industrial machinery components. The honeycomb core’s load-bearing capacity (up to 500kg/m²) protects heavy items from deformation during transportation, and the waterproof property avoids rust caused by moisture.​
  • Furniture & interior design: Processed into lightweight furniture panels (tabletops, cabinet doors) and display shelves for shopping malls. The sheets are easy to cut and laminate with decorative films, realizing personalized designs while reducing furniture overall weight for easy assembly.​
  • Logistics & transportation: Customized into pallet top boards and container liners. The honeycomb structure resists impact from jolts during transportation, protects goods from damage and is recyclable—replacing traditional wooden pallets and reducing environmental pollution.​

This PP Honeycomb Sheet Machine is an ideal choice for building material manufacturers, heavy-duty packaging enterprises, furniture factories and logistics equipment suppliers—providing high-performance, eco-friendly PP honeycomb sheet solutions for high-demand scenarios
