Lien Shing Machinery Co., Ltd.
Auto pulp molded recyclable tableware, fresh food tray
2009/10/01 | By Ben Shen | LIEN SHING MACHINERY CO., LTD.Lien Shing Machinery Co., Ltd.'s LS6100A family of machine is developed for making recycle and biodegradable paper products, including fresh food trays, package buffers, tableware and agricultural package boxes. The series consists of a pulper, forming system and drying unit. The pulper mixes wasted paper with water to create pulp, which is then turned into various end-market products by the forming machines.
“Recyclable and biodegradable paper products are a trend now," stresses Lien Shing's sales manager Kinpaleon Tsai. Paper-based packaging, Tsai adds, has replaced some plastic packaging as consumers demand more biodegradable alternatives.
Lien Shing began supplying equipment for making paper hamburger boxes 12 years ago. "We made the machines for buyers in the United States and United Kingdom." Today, the company's major export outlets are Europe, the United States, Japan and mainland China.
Tsai is among the industrial insiders stressing the importance of experience in turning out high-quality equipment. "There were once a lot of new entrants in the industry. But, many of them have left as a result of poor quality," he notes. With more than four decades in the business, he is in a position to know.
Machine quality in the paper-processing sector can be judged by such measures as noise level, power consumption, pulp spraying evenness and forming mold precision, Tsai says.
Experience has been as useful in navigating through technical bottlenecks as it has been in improving customer service, according to Tsai. "Usually we can talk to our customers through a technical problem over the phone or by email, rather than ending a technician out, since the problem is familiar to use," he notes.
The decades have also taught Lien Shing a few tricks about cutting costs, helping the company to stay afloat during lean times that have sunk less experienced rivals. It also has an advantage in that it has already invested in the costly techniques that would-be competitors must acquire at a dear price," Tsai says.
The LS-61000A offers a 30% gain in output speed compared with its predecessors, according to Tsai. The whole system can be operated by only three workers since it is equipped with PLC-based human-machine interface control system, which is made by a Japanese supplier. "A similar system made by mainland Chinese suppliers needs around 30 workers to operate and maintain," he reports.
