The Honeycomb Paper Core Expanding Machine is a specialized piece of equipment engineered to unfold (expand) honeycomb core paper into structured, usable honeycomb cores. These expanded honeycomb cores serve as critical internal fillers for sandwich panels, leveraging their lightweight, high-strength, and eco-friendly properties to enhance the performance of end products while reducing material costs.
Our machine is available in two main models: HEM-1450-D and HEM-1450-B, both tailored to meet different production scales and functional requirements. Unlike manual or semi-automatic alternatives, this fully automated system integrates expanding, heating, calibrating, and cutting functions (with trim capabilities for the HEM-1450-D model), streamlining the production process and minimizing human error. It supports core paper with a weight range of 120-180g/m², and can process honeycomb cores with thicknesses from 10-70mm and cell sizes (apertures) of 5-40mm — covering most industrial application demands.
Equipped with a PLC (Delta) control system, the machine operates with full automation, reducing the need for manual intervention. From honeycomb core feeding (via a chain-with-needles system that ensures stable material transport) to expanding, heating, and final cutting, each step is precisely controlled by the PLC. This not only lowers labor costs but also ensures consistent product quality, avoiding variations caused by manual operation.
Processing Speed: The machine achieves a speed range of 0.6-4m/min, allowing for high-efficiency production to meet large-order demands.
Effective Width: It supports an expanded core paper width of 0-1400mm (with a maximum input width of 1800mm), covering most standard honeycomb core sizes used in industries.
Power & Energy Efficiency: The heating power is fixed at 18kw, with motor power of 2.2kw (HEM-1450-D) and 0.2kw (HEM-1450-B) — optimized to balance performance and energy consumption.
Trim Function (HEM-1450-D Exclusive): This model includes 3 trim blades for precise edge trimming, eliminating the need for secondary processing and saving production time. The HEM-1450-B model, while lacking trim functionality, maintains core expanding performance for cost-sensitive clients.
Both models feature a durable steel structure that ensures long-term operation stability. The dimensions are optimized for factory layouts:
HEM-1450-D: 4600X2200X1300mm (L×W×H), weight of 1000kg
HEM-1450-B: 4300X2200X1350mm (L×W×H), weight of 800kg
The compact design allows easy integration into existing honeycomb production lines without requiring excessive floor space.
The machine is equipped with an automatic temperature control system, which maintains consistent heating during the expanding process. This is critical for ensuring the honeycomb core retains its structural integrity — overheating or underheating can lead to core deformation or weak bonding, and the automatic system eliminates such risks.
The expanded honeycomb cores produced by this machine are versatile, making the Honeycomb Paper Core Expanding Machine indispensable in multiple industries:
In furniture manufacturing, expanded honeycomb cores are widely used as internal fillers for wardrobe panels, cabinet doors, and table tops. Their lightweight nature reduces the overall weight of furniture (easing transportation and installation) while providing sufficient structural support to resist warping. Additionally, honeycomb cores are eco-friendly (made from recyclable paper), aligning with the global trend of sustainable furniture production.
For solid wood composite doors and ecological doors, honeycomb cores serve as cost-effective alternatives to solid wood cores. They enhance the door’s sound insulation and thermal insulation performance, while reducing material costs by up to 30% compared to solid wood. Door manufacturers rely on our machine to produce uniform honeycomb cores that fit standard door sizes.
Customized honeycomb cartons and pallets are in high demand for heavy-duty packaging (e.g., for electronics, machinery, and logistics). The expanded honeycomb cores from our machine form the core layer of these packaging products, providing excellent shock absorption and load-bearing capacity (supporting weights of up to 500kg for pallets). This replaces traditional foam or plastic packaging, reducing environmental pollution.
In the construction sector, honeycomb cores are used in lightweight partition boards and ceiling materials. Their high strength-to-weight ratio makes partition boards easy to install while maintaining structural stability, and their thermal insulation properties help improve building energy efficiency. Decoration companies also use honeycomb cores for wall panels and display stands, thanks to their customizable sizes and eco-friendly attributes.
The key differences lie in functionality and specifications:
Trim Function: HEM-1450-D has 3 trim blades for edge trimming, while HEM-1450-B does not.
Motor Power: HEM-1450-D uses a 2.2kw motor (for higher processing efficiency), while HEM-1450-B uses a 0.2kw motor (suitable for small-scale production).
Dimensions & Weight: HEM-1450-D is slightly larger (4600×2200×1300mm) and heavier (1000kg) than HEM-1450-B (4300×2200×1350mm, 800kg).
Choose HEM-1450-D for large-scale, high-precision production; HEM-1450-B is ideal for small batches or cost-sensitive projects.
Yes. All our Honeycomb Paper Core Expanding Machines hold CE certificates, ensuring compliance with European safety and environmental regulations. Additionally, Wuxi Shenxi Honeycomb Machinery Factory passed ISO 9001:2008 (now updated to ISO 9001:2015) quality management system certification, guaranteeing consistent production quality. The machine also uses safety guards for moving parts to prevent workplace accidents.
To ensure normal operation, the machine needs:
Air Supply: 4-6kg/cm³ (compressed air for pneumatic components).
Voltage: 3~, 380V/50Hz (three-phase alternating current; a voltage stabilizer is recommended for areas with unstable power supply).
Installation Space: Ensure at least 1m of clearance around the machine for maintenance and material loading/unloading.
Yes. The machine is designed to process core paper with a weight range of 120-180g/m², which is the standard weight for industrial honeycomb cores. It can also adapt to different honeycomb core thicknesses (10-70mm) and cell sizes (5-40mm) by adjusting the PLC parameters. For special paper types (e.g., water-resistant core paper), we offer customized modifications to the machine’s heating and feeding systems.
