We’ve compiled the most frequently asked questions from global buyers and engineers below to help you understand our machine better — from materials and productivity to installation and service.
1. What is a surgical drape making machine?
A surgical drape making machine is a fully automatic production line that converts nonwoven and laminated materials into disposable medical drapes used in operating rooms. Deheng PPE’s machines are designed for EN13795-compliant production, integrating cutting, folding, taping, and fenestration punching in one continuous process.
2. What types of drapes can Deheng PPE machines produce?
Our machines can manufacture plain drapes, fenestrated drapes, reinforced drapes, adhesive drapes, ophthalmic drapes, and customized designs. Each line can be tailored according to hospital requirements or OEM production needs.
3. Can the drape machine handle custom holes and fenestrations?
Yes. The machine supports flexible, fixed, or die-cut punching systems for accurate fenestrations. Hole size, shape, and position can be fully customized. This ensures high precision for critical surgical procedures such as eye, chest, or orthopedic surgeries.
4. What materials are suitable for this machine?
The machine can handle various medical-grade materials, including:
- SMS / SMMS nonwoven fabric
- PE laminated film
- Reinforcement absorbent layers
- Medical adhesive tape
- PE/PP/PU film and release liner
All materials are compatible with sterile barrier system standards.
5. What is the machine’s production capacity and speed?
Production capacity depends on model and drape size, typically reaching 10–30 meters per minute or 15–30 pieces per minute. With high-speed ultrasonic and servo systems, Deheng PPE machines maintain stable sealing and folding even at top speeds.
6. How easy is it to change between different drape sizes or styles?
Deheng PPE designs each system for quick changeover. Operators can switch product size or model in less than 30 minutes by adjusting folding plates, tension control, and punch molds — ensuring minimal downtime and maximum productivity.
7. What features ensure quality and consistency?
Each machine is equipped with:
- Automatic edge position control (EPC)
- Servo-driven tension system
- Accurate ultrasonic sealing
- Camera or sensor inspection for hole accuracy
- Neat folding and stacking system
These ensure that every drape produced meets medical-grade precision and consistency.
8. What are the technical and space requirements?
Typical machine footprint: 10-12 meters (L) × 2.3 meters (W)
Power supply: 380V / 3-phase / 50–60Hz
Compressed air: 0.5–0.7 MPa
Designed for cleanroom environments, ensuring smooth integration into sterile manufacturing facilities.
9. How is the machine maintained and what is its lifespan?
Maintenance is simple — periodic cleaning of ultrasonic horns, sensors, and rollers is sufficient. Core components like ultrasonic units, hot melt and servo drives have an average lifespan of 2–3 years, depending on production hours. Deheng PPE provides maintenance training and detailed manuals.
10. What after-sales service does Deheng PPE provide?
We provide installation guidance, remote technical support, spare parts, and operator training. Our technical team ensures your line achieves full output within the shortest setup time. Deheng PPE commits to replying all service requests within 7 hours.
