Solution 1:
Customers buy a full production line, including offset printing machine, Die-cutting machine and Paper cup making machine. In this full production line, customers need only buy paper sheet (PE coated) and paper roll (for cup bottom). All the other processes could be done on machines. Thus efficiency is very high, but the investment is very large. Furthermore, because the capacity of offset printing machine and die-cutting machine is much faster than paper cup making machine, you should buy 3-4 sets of paper cup making machine to work with them, so as to avoid machine unused situation.
We have good relationship with the manufacturers of offset printing machine and die-cutting machine, if you want, we could get a good price for you and supply them to you with paper cup making machine.
