The latest wet wipes production line has been successfully launched and its future prospects are analyzed

Wet wipe equipment: The invisible driving force behind modern hygiene

In the fast-paced world of modern life, wet wipes have become an indispensable hygiene product in hospitals, restaurants, and homes. The efficient production of this daily consumer product relies on wet wipe production equipment that integrates mechanical engineering, automated control, and materials science.

The beauty of industrial precision manufacturing

A modern wet wipe production line is like a symphony orchestra: the unwinding system precisely transports the nonwoven substrate, the metered liquid injection device sprays disinfectant with an accuracy of ±0.5ml, and the heat-sealing and cutting unit slits at a high speed of 800 sheets per minute at 200°C. The third-generation equipment developed by Krones of Germany even uses machine vision to automatically remove defective products with uneven fibers, keeping the scrap rate below 0.3%.

A dual breakthrough in green intelligent manufacturing

Domestic equipment exhibited at the 2025 Shanghai Industrial Expo attracted attention. Its innovative features include a solar preheating system that reduces energy consumption by 30%, and a dedicated production line for biodegradable materials that reduces plastic pollution. A "5G+AI" operation and maintenance system developed by a Zhejiang company can monitor data from 5,000 sensors in real time and predict equipment failures in advance.

Extended Reflection on Social Value

After the COVID-19 pandemic, the design standards for sterile workshops for fully automatic packaging equipment were upgraded to pharmaceutical-grade standards, enabling ordinary wet wipes to meet the hygienic standards used for surgical instrument packaging. This equipment upgrade not only ensures public health and safety but also drives the transformation of "Made in China" toward high-value-added sectors.

From a roll of base paper to a finished packaged product, through 17 steps, wet wipe equipment embodies the industrial philosophy of "small products, big manufacturing." When we casually pick up a disinfectant wipe at a convenience store, behind it lies the unwavering dedication of countless engineers to the ultimate pursuit of precision, efficiency, and sustainability.
