What is a wet wipes machine?
A wet wipes machine is a set of equipment that convert spunlace non-woven fabric into pre-moistened wipes that often come folded and packed in a soft pack or in a canister.
Applications of a wet wipes machine?
A wet wipes machine can convert many types of wet wipes in abroad of applications:
You may already get to know many different types of wet wipes in the market: baby wipes, makeup removal wipes, disinfectant wipes, sanitizing wipes, moist toilet wipes etc.
However, if you search a wet wipes machine by its applications, chances are you are getting nowhere.
Varied wet wipes product names are in fact a matter of formulation that can be processed on the same wet wipes production line.

What is the general wet wipes manufacturing process?
( How are wet wipes made?）
–What are the wet wipes machines required for each production process?
A complete wet wipes manufacturing process entails the following 4 processes：
(1) Wet wipes converting process
Non-woven roll unwinding → online slitting → tissue folding → wetting → tissue stacking into piles
(2) Wet wipes packaging process
Laminates packaging film roll unwinding → (hole) die cutting → re-sealable sticker labeling → bag forming→ sealing → output product
(3) Wet wipes lid application process
labeling on lid →gluing →lid pasting
(4) End-of-the-line packaging process
Case packing→ palletizing
*Each process is completed on an individual equipment with varied numbers of manpower required.

How many labors do we need for a wet wipes machine?
In light of varied production process, we need varied number of workers to manage the whole wet wipes production
Please refer to above chart on Question No.3.
*How much Automation do you need depends on your budget frame, sales volume forecast, capacity requirement, labor cost.
What is the difference between a full-automated wet wipes machine and a semi-automatic wet wipes machine?
Full-automated wet wipes production line:
A typical full-automated wet wipes machine is composite of a wet wipes converting machine and a wet wipes packaging machine.
Packaging is done by machine not manually.
No human intervention throughout the complete process.
Work Flow
(Refer to Question 4 wet wipes work flow illustration, the work flow of a full automated wet wipes machine goes in the following way: process (1)+ process (2))
Nonwoven roll unwinding → online slitting → tissue folding → wetting → tissue stacking into piles → tissue piles transferred to wet wipes packaging machine → Laminates packaging film roll unwinding → (hole) die cutting → re-sealable sticker labeling → bag forming→ sealing → output product
Semi-automated wet wipes machine:
Semi-automated wet wipes machine generally refers to a wet wipes making machine (without packaging machine).
If you buy a wet wipes making machine only, you have to pack wet wipes with pre-made pouches then seal the pouch manually
If you buy a wet wipes packaging machine only, well, you are not able to complete the whole production
Work flow:
Nonwoven roll unwinding → online slitting → tissue folding → wetting → tissue stacking into piles → Tissue Stack picked up by labors– manual packaging ( with pre-made bags) – manual sealing(small sealing machine)- finished product output.
Tissue in a stack form packed into (Pre-made bags)by manual work
Do you produce full-automatic wet wipes machine or semi-automatic wet wipes machine?

Although Most commonly seen baby wipes in the market are packed in 80s,100s, 120s worldwide, on-the-go baby wipes are also favored by consumers due to its portability.
So, it is not a problem to make baby wipes on the cross-fold wet wipes production line in 20s,25s,30s per bag.
Can I use baby wipes machine to make disinfectant wipes and facial cleaning wipes?
Yes, you can.
All you need is to change the ingredient / formulation for each wet wipes.
But make sure your wet wipes machine has sanitary piping design and quick rinsing system to avoid cross-contamination after change-over of each formulated wipes.
