Machines and auxiliaries required for the production of a plastic crate

There are many kinds of crates on the market, such as fruit crates, beer crates, seafood crates, cola crates and folding crates. But how to make a plastic crate?

Using plastic injection molding machine to produce crates. The granular plastic raw material is fed into the crate mold by hydraulic injection pressure through the heated barrel/screw, where it solidifies to form a crate, and then ejects it from the mold and is removed by hand or loader. In addition to plastic injection molding machines, there are some auxiliaries. If customers want to automate production, they can also consider dryers, chillers, crusher and loaders. These auxiliary machines can increase the productivity of producing plastic crates.

Clarify product information

As long as there is the weight and size of the crate here, We can accept customization. We need to know the length, width and height of the plastic crate so that we can choose the right machine and mold for customers. Because  crates are used for different purposes, some for fruits, some for seafood, and some for drinks. So the thickness of the crate is also different. We can choose the right molds and machines according to the customer’s needs.
