What Is an Automatic Pulp Board Separator?

An automatic pulp board separator is a specialized industrial machine designed to separate stacked or bonded pulp boards automatically after forming, drying, or hot-pressing processes.

In pulp molding and fiber board production, finished boards often exit the production line stacked together due to heat, moisture, pressure, or surface adhesion. Manual separation is slow, inconsistent, and labor-intensive. An automatic separator replaces manual handling with controlled mechanical, pneumatic, or servo-driven separation, ensuring speed, accuracy, and product protection.

A custom-made separator is engineered specifically for your board size, thickness, production speed, material characteristics, and factory layout.

Product Introduction

Automatic pulp board separator (commonly referred to as pulp board separators or feeders in the pulp and packaging industry) have become essential equipment for automated pulp distribution lines and pulp mills. Their core function is to accurately and quickly separate stacked pulp boards into individual sheets for subsequent pulping, feeding, or forming processes.

This machine is an automated material handling system specifically designed for handling adhered, high-grammage, and high-hardness pulp boards.

Working Principle: Using vacuum suction cups, friction wheels, or mechanical grippers, combined with physical, air-blowing, or vibration-based layering techniques, pulp boards are extracted sheet by sheet from stacked piles and smoothly conveyed onto a conveyor belt.

Fields of Application  

(1) Environmentally Friendly Paper-Plastic Tableware Production
The process of separating chopped sugarcane pulp or wood pulp boards and feeding them into a pulper is the first step in a fully automated paper cup and paper plate production line.

(2) Pulp Preparation System
Used in large paper mills to automatically unpack and continuously feed purchased pulp sheets, ensuring stable pulp concentration.

(3) Industrial Buffer Packaging
Used for the front-end feeding of paper tray production lines for electronic products and automotive parts.

(4) Specialty Paper Processing
Used in industries requiring precise single-sheet feeding, such as filter paper and fiberboard.

How it solves customer pain points? 

(1) Eliminating Manual Dependence and Safety Risks
Pulp sheets are typically heavy and have sharp edges. Automatic unpacking eliminates the risk of workplace injuries and high labor costs associated with manual handling.

(2) Improving Pulp Concentration Stability
Manual feeding is prone to overfeeding or underfeeding. Automatic paper separators can achieve constant-frequency feeding, thereby stabilizing the subsequent pulp ratio and product quality.

(3) Prevention of equipment failure and downtime
The use of precise stratification technology (such as air-blowing paper separation) solves the problem of pulper blockage or frequent sensor errors caused by two sheets being fed simultaneously (double sheets) due to adhesion at the edges of the pulp board.

(4) Space and process optimization:
The compact design allows the equipment to be directly connected to the pulp tank or conveyor line, achieving “immediate separation and pulping upon arrival,” thus optimizing the workshop logistics layout.

This automatic sheet separator can be used for industrial cushion packaging, specifically to separate heavy pulp boards stacked into stacks into individual sheets. It features precision and speed, and can be customized to meet factory-specific requirements.
