Key Factors Affecting Blown Film Machine Prices: A Buyer’s Guide

Recently, many friends have called to inquire about the specifications and prices of film machines. For those who are new to this industry, the most important requirements may be the width and production efficiency of the film blowing machine. Generally speaking, the width of the film blowing machine is used as a standard for distinguishing models, that is, the larger the width, the wider the machine, and the higher the price.

In addition to the width, the prices of film blowing machines with different functions and different degrees of automation are also very different. High and low pressure film blowing machines (also divided into single-head film blowing machines and double-head film blowing machines), double-winding film blowing machines, rotating head film blowing machines, ABA film blowing machines, biodegradable film blowing machines, multi-layer film blowing machines, etc. In addition to different functional requirements, more functions can be selected. Therefore, the price range is also very large, tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, hundreds of thousands, hundreds of thousands, and millions of tens of millions are all possible.

Machine type and specifications:

The width of the film blowing machine (such as 500mm, 1000mm, etc.) directly affects the price. The wider, the more expensive.

Function type: high and low pressure film blowing machine, double winder, rotary head, multi-layer co-extrusion (such as ABA), biodegradable, etc. The more complex the function, the higher the price.

Some manufacturers may ship new small film blowing machines at a minimum of 50,000 to 60,000 yuan, and some second-hand film blowing machines may be 40,000 to 50,000 yuan, or even lower. So when choosing, you must pay attention and don't be fooled by low prices. If you want to buy a film blowing machine with a suitable price, it is recommended to buy it from a regular manufacturer, so that the quality and after-sales service are guaranteed. Therefore, the best way to deal with different quotations is to pay attention to how far the manufacturer is from you, how to get there quickly, and to conduct field inspections, test machines, and negotiations, so that all your questions can be answered.

It is worth mentioning that the film blowing machines and bag making machines of Chinese manufacturers can fully meet the daily processing and production needs, and are in the world's more advanced echelons in terms of quality and innovation. Judging from the export situation of China's film blowing machines and their supporting equipment in 2024, it is still quite good. Yuexing Machinery's film blowing machine equipment has also covered more than 30 countries and regions around the world.

From the perspective of investment, the price of a film blowing machine ranges from tens of thousands to tens of millions. To form a complete set of production lines, plant buildings, equipment, personnel, raw materials, etc., the initial investment is conservatively estimated to be about 2 million. Of course, it is mainly determined by the target market of the products produced.
