A normal surgical mask is composed of three layers of nonwoven fabric. The inner layer is an ordinary nonwoven fabric that absorbs moisture, the outer layer is made of water-repellent nonwoven fabric, and the middle layer is a filter layer that made of melt-blown fabric with electrostatic electret. The melt-blown layer in the mask must have been tested for filtration efficiency, and the ear-loop must welding firmly on the non-woven fabric. A low defect rate is very important for low-cost production, so you must choose a reliable and good quality machine for a profitable mask production business.

The above video shows a mask-making machine in testing process for 3 ply surgical masks. Max. output can up to 80pcs/min with defect rate less than 5%. The machine is PLC control with electric power voltage of AC220V，50Hz (customizable). Rated power is approximately 8.5kW.

Main features of this mask-making machine

1. Automaticly unwinding of raw materials, automatic conveying, cutting of nose bar, welding of mask edge, ultrasonic fusion, forming and cutting, and welding of ear-loop. It is a fully automatic production process and it can achieve a maximum capacity of 120,000 pieces per day in 24 hours working day with full capacity.
2. PLC programable controlled, servo motor driven.
3. Stable operation, low failure rate.
4. Automatic tension control for unwinding the non-woven rolls to ensure the balance of feeding tension;
5. Optical fiber sensor is used to detect raw materials to avoid defective products and waste;
6. The pattern of the welding joint of the mask body can be customized, and the mask of different sizes and styles can be produced by changing the embossing mold;
7. The machine fram is made of aluminum alloy profiles. It is robust and rust-free.

Disposable masks with ribbon ear-loops folded in Z shape. The advantage of this mask with Z folded ribbon ear-loops is that the investment for mask production equipment is relatively low-cost, and the mask wears very comfortable. Mechanical parts with complete design files are available. We also supply assembled ready to work machines for this disposable mask production lines.
