Napkin Paper Machine Production Line
The Napkin Paper Machine Production Line is designed for the continuous production of folded paper napkins from jumbo rolls of tissue paper. It integrates paper unwinding, folding, cutting, forming and finished-product output into an automated production process.
The production line is suitable for businesses producing paper napkins for restaurants, hotels, catering services, distributors, wholesalers and other commercial applications.
Depending on the required napkin size, paper material and production configuration, the equipment can be adapted to different paper napkin specifications and production requirements.
Complete Paper Napkin Production Process
The napkin paper machine follows a continuous converting process:
Jumbo Roll Feeding → Paper Unwinding → Folding → Cutting → Forming → Finished Napkin Output
The production process is controlled by the machine's control system, reducing manual intervention during normal operation.
For customers requiring a complete production solution, the napkin machine can also be connected with downstream packaging equipment to create a more integrated production line.
Main Features
Automatic Paper Feeding and Unwinding
The jumbo roll is installed on the paper unwinding system. During operation, the machine controls the paper feeding process to maintain stable material movement.
The system is designed to reduce problems such as uneven feeding, paper jams and unexpected paper breaks during continuous production.
The maximum raw paper roll diameter is:
≤1200 mm
The standard raw paper core inner diameter is:
76.2 mm
Flexible Folding
The raw paper enters the folding section after unwinding and is continuously processed according to the selected napkin size and folding configuration.
The folding system uses rollers and mechanical folding components to create uniform folded napkins.
The machine supports finished unfolded napkin sizes from:
180 × 180 mm to 400 × 400 mm
This range allows the production line to serve different commercial napkin applications.
Automatic Cutting and Forming
After folding, the paper is transferred to the cutting section, where it is cut into individual napkins according to the configured size.
The cutting and forming process is synchronized with the paper feeding and folding systems to support continuous production.
Finished Product Output
The finished napkins are automatically transferred to the output section for collection.
For customers requiring packaged products, the production line can be integrated with suitable napkin packaging equipment according to the required package format and production capacity.
Production Capacity
The host design speed is:
1000 sheets/min/unit
The stated host production speed is also:
1000 sheets/min/unit
Actual production output can vary according to napkin size, paper GSM, number of layers, folding configuration, operating conditions and machine settings.
For example, at a nominal speed of 1000 sheets/min, the theoretical hourly output is:
1000 × 60 = 60,000 sheets/hour
Actual production should be calculated according to the customer's specific product specification and operating schedule.
Raw Paper Requirements
The machine is designed for tissue paper raw materials suitable for paper napkin production.
Recommended raw paper:
13–23 g/m² wood pulp paper
The machine can process:
2–3 layers
The maximum original paper roll diameter is:
≤1200 mm
Standard core inner diameter:
76.2 mm
Before ordering the machine, customers should provide the raw paper specifications they currently use so that material compatibility can be confirmed.
Control System
The napkin paper machine uses a programmable control system with variable-frequency speed regulation.
Main control functions include:
Program-controlled operation
Variable-frequency speed regulation
Jog paper feeding
Paper breakage detection
Deceleration and shutdown when the paper material is nearly exhausted
The control system allows operators to adjust machine operation according to production requirements while helping maintain stable paper feeding.
Paper Breakage Detection
A paper breakage detection system is installed on the machine.
When the raw material is close to running out or a paper feeding problem is detected, the system can reduce machine speed and initiate the corresponding shutdown process.
This helps reduce unnecessary machine operation when the paper roll is nearly exhausted and provides additional protection for continuous production.
Safety Protection
The main transmission components are equipped with protective covers.
The protective structure helps reduce direct contact with moving mechanical components during normal operation and provides additional protection for operators.
Operators should still follow the machine's operating and maintenance procedures during installation, production and servicing.
Steel Plate Machine Structure
Compared with conventional channel-steel structures, this machine uses a steel plate machine body designed to provide a more rigid mechanical structure.
The upgraded structure is intended to support stable operation at higher production speeds while reducing the need for frequent maintenance of the machine body and main mechanical components.
According to the supplied production comparison, the steel plate structure can provide approximately 30% higher operating speed than the referenced traditional channel-steel napkin machine, depending on the specific machine configuration and production conditions.
The actual production improvement should be evaluated according to the customer's raw materials, product specifications and operating environment.
