Q1. Can the machine be customized?
Re: Yes. Each system is engineered according to your product drawings and production targets.
Q2. What materials can be processed?
Re: Felt, nonwoven materials and thermoplastic components.
Q3. Is the machine fully automatic?
Re: Yes. Feeding, cutting, welding, inspection and unloading are integrated.
Q4. Which industries is it suitable for?
Re: Mainly automotive, filtration and industrial component manufacturing.
Before building a custom automation line, we can evaluate your product drawings,
materials and assembly requirements.
For suitable projects, sample welding validation can be arranged. Tooling or fixture cost
may apply depending on product structure.
This helps reduce development risk and confirms process feasibility before production.
Send us your part drawings, material specifications, required output and current assembly video.
