GDM ECP Pulp Molding Production Lines

Standard capacity reference is the 30-egg tray with a 320 × 320 mm mould module. Actual capacity depends on product geometry, pulp recipe, drying conditions and the final project specification.

Nominal rates reference a standard 30-egg tray. Capacity varies with product geometry, pulp recipe, moisture target, drying conditions and mould configuration. Confirm final figures with a project specification.

Production process

How the production line works

From recovered paper to finished molded-fiber products, the GDM ECP production line combines pulp preparation, vacuum forming and controlled drying in one continuous process.

How the production line works Production line, from left to right: 1 Pulper, 2 two primary tanks, 3 secondary tank, 4 forming machine, 5 control panel, 6 air compressor, 7 vacuum pump, 8 metal dryer. Pulp preparation, molding and drying run in sequence.

Production line components

  1. Pulper

    Recovered paper and water are mixed to create pulp.

  2. Primary tanks

    Two primary tanks store the prepared pulp suspension.

  3. Secondary tank

    The secondary tank feeds the molding section at a steady rate.

  4. Forming machine

    Fiber is vacuum-formed into molded-fiber products on product-specific moulds.

  5. Control panel

    Electrical control panel that operates and monitors the line.

  6. Air compressor

    Supplies compressed air for the line’s pneumatic systems.

  7. Vacuum pump

    Provides the negative pressure used during molded-fiber forming.

  8. Metal dryer

    Continuous metal dryer that removes moisture from the formed products.

Dual-line architecture

Dual-Line Production Architecture

For projects that need higher total output, a dual-line configuration can be engineered around shared upstream infrastructure. One pulp-preparation system feeds two independent forming lines, each with its own dryer, converging to a single finished output.

Dual-Line Production Architecture Process diagram from left to right: recovered paper enters a shared pulp-preparation system with pulper, tanks, mixers and pumps. The prepared pulp splits into two branches: Production Line A and Production Line B. Each line contains a forming machine and a dryer. Both branches converge to the finished output.

Process flow

  1. Recovered paper

    Recovered paper enters the shared pulp-preparation system.

  2. Shared pulp preparation

    One engineered pulp-preparation system with pulper, tanks, mixers and pumps serves both lines.

  3. Production line A

    An independent forming branch with its own forming machine and dryer.

  4. Production line B

    A second independent forming branch with its own forming machine and dryer.

  5. Finished output

    Both branches converge to the finished output.

  • Shared Infrastructure

    An engineered pulp-preparation system can support two molding lines, reducing unnecessary duplication of upstream equipment where project design allows.

  • Operational Flexibility

    The two molding lines operate as separate production branches, giving the plant greater operating flexibility.

  • Reduced Downtime Impact

    If one molding line is stopped for maintenance or service, the second line can continue production.

Final dual-line configuration, pulp-preparation capacity, compressed-air capacity, utilities and auxiliary equipment are engineered according to selected line capacities, product requirements and project conditions.
