Bouffant Cap Making Machine

Our Automatic Bouffant Cap Making Machine is designed for producing nonwoven disposable caps widely used in hospitals, laboratories, food processing plants, cleanrooms, beauty salons and hygiene industries.

The machine integrates material feeding, folding, elastic inserting, ultrasonic sealing and cutting into one continuous production line. With stable performance and high output, it helps factories replace manual production and significantly reduce labor costs.

Compatible with PP nonwoven fabric, the machine offers adjustable cap sizes—typically from 18” to 24”—to serve different industries and market demands.

Machine Features

  1. Fully Automatic Production
    Material feeding, folding, sealing and elastic inserting are all completed in a single continuous process.

  2. High-Precision Elastic Control
    Ensures uniform tension and strong sealing for comfortable and durable caps.

  3. Ultrasonic Bonding Technology
    Clean, firm and eco-friendly sealing without glue or chemicals.

  4. High Productivity
    Running speed reaches 80–120 pcs/min depending on fabric quality and cap size.

  5. PLC Touch Screen Control
    Easy operation, real-time monitoring, and quick switching of production parameters.

  6. Adjustable Cap Size
    Supports multiple sizes (18–24 inches) for medical, food and household applications.

  7. Stable Structure & Low Noise
    Frame is welded and reinforced for long-term durability and quiet operation.

  8. Low Labor Requirement
    Only 1 operator is needed, making it ideal for high-volume production.

1. What is the typical speed of a bouffant cap making machine?

For a standard machine, the speed is usually around 150–200 pcs/min.

But in real production, the actual output depends on:

  • material (nonwoven or PE)
  • elastic type (elastic band or spandex)
  • machine stability
  • packing method

In many cases, stable running is more important than peak speed.


2. Do I really need an automatic packing machine?

It depends on your production scale.

If output is low, manual packing may still work.
But once production increases, packing often becomes the bottleneck.

Many customers find that:
👉 the machine can run fast, but packing cannot keep up

So for medium to large production, automatic packing is usually recommended.


3. What types of packing are available?

Common packing options include:

  • bag packing (most common)
  • box packing
  • counting + stacking before packing

The choice depends on your market and product positioning.


4. Can one machine work with different packing methods?

Yes, but it depends on the configuration.

Some lines are designed as:

  • machine + independent packing unit
  • or integrated machine + packing system

If you have different packing requirements, it is better to confirm this early.


5. What affects the real production output?

Besides machine speed, actual output is affected by:

  • material quality
  • elastic feeding stability
  • operator experience
  • packing efficiency

That is why two machines with the same speed on paper may perform differently in real production.


6. Can the machine run both elastic band and spandex?

Usually, the machine is configured for one type at a time.

Both elastic band and spandex can be used,
but they require slightly different handling and settings.

It is better to confirm your material choice before finalizing the machine configuration.


7. How many operators are needed for a full line with packing?

For a complete line with automatic packing,
typically 2–4 operators are enough.

Without automatic packing, you may need more people for manual handling.


8. Is the machine suitable for both medical and shower caps?

Yes, but it depends on the material.

  • Nonwoven → medical, hygiene, cleanroom
  • PE film → shower caps, waterproof applications

The machine setup may need adjustment depending on the material.


9. What is included in a full bouffant cap production line?

A typical setup may include:

  • cap forming machine
  • elastic feeding system
  • counting unit
  • automatic packing machine

Some customers choose a basic setup first,
and add packing later as production grows.


10. How do I know if I need a full line or just a machine?

A simple way to decide:

  • if you are just starting → machine only may be enough
  • if you already have stable orders → full line with packing is more efficient

If you are not sure, it is usually easier to start from your target output and packing requirement, then decide the configuration.

1. Do you provide installation and training services?

Yes. We provide online installation guidance, video instructions, and real-time technical support.
If required, we can also arrange engineer onsite service (customer covers travel cost).


2. What is the warranty period for the machine?

The machine comes with a 1-year warranty for all core components, including:

  • Ultrasonic system

  • Electrical parts

  • Motors and sensors

  • PLC & HMI

Lifetime technical support is free.


3. How do you support customers during machine operation problems?

We offer multiple support channels:

  • 24–48 hour online troubleshooting

  • Remote video diagnosis (WhatsApp / WeChat / Zoom)

  • Parameter correction and guidance

  • Free training on operation and maintenance

For urgent issues, we can send replacement parts immediately.


4. How fast can you supply spare parts?

Common spare parts such as: ultrasonic horns, blades, rubber rollers, sensors, belts, etc.
are always kept in stock.
We ship within 24 hours by DHL/FedEx.
Customized parts normally take 3–7 days.


5. Do you offer machine customization and upgrade service?

Yes. We support customization of:

  • Cap size (18–24 inch)

  • Elastic width & tension

  • Feeding structure

  • Folding style

  • Machine speed

  • Frame size

We also provide upgrade services for old machines (ultrasonic replacement, tension system stabilization, elastic feeding upgrades, etc.).
