Designed with modern automation and industrial-grade components, this machine is engineered to meet the growing demand for eco-friendly, single-use paper cups in cafes, bakeries, and mobile food vendors.
Why Choose a Mini Paper Cup Machine for Small-Scale Production?
As a startup café owner in Bangkok, I struggled to find a cost-effective way to produce branded paper cups without relying on third-party suppliers. The lead times were long, and the pricing didn’t scale well with our volume. After testing several machines, I found that the YG mini paper cup making machine offered the perfect balance between size, speed, and automation. It fits perfectly in a 2m x 2m workspace and produces up to 1,200 cups per hour—ideal for our daily needs.
Unlike bulky industrial models, this compact machine is designed for agility. It’s not just about saving floor space—it’s about operational efficiency. With a fully integrated PLC-controlled system, the machine ensures consistent folding, sealing, and cup formation with minimal manual intervention. This means fewer errors, less waste, and more time for you to focus on your core business.
How Does the Pump Core Com System Improve Cup Quality?
One of the most frequently asked questions from users is: “How does the pump core com system affect the structural integrity of the paper cups?” The answer lies in the precision of the internal forming mechanism.
The pump core com (core compression) system is a proprietary feature that ensures even pressure distribution during the cup’s formation. This prevents weak seams, uneven walls, or collapsed bases—common issues with low-end machines. The system uses a calibrated hydraulic pump to compress the paper roll into a cylindrical shape before folding and sealing, resulting in cups that can hold up to 350ml of liquid without leakage.
- Pump Core Com System
- A hydraulic compression mechanism that applies uniform pressure during the cup-forming stage, ensuring consistent wall thickness and structural strength. This system reduces material waste and enhances the durability of the final product.
- PLC-Controlled Automation
- A programmable logic controller that manages the entire production cycle, including paper feeding, folding, sealing, and ejection. It allows for preset speed settings, error detection, and automatic shutdown in case of jams.
- Mini Size Design
- A compact footprint (650mm x 500mm x 1200mm) ideal for small workshops, kitchens, or retail spaces with limited space. Despite its size, it maintains industrial-grade performance.

How to Set Up and Operate the Machine Efficiently?
Setting up the YG mini paper cup machine is straightforward, even for users with no prior machinery experience. Here’s a step-by-step guide based on real-world usage:
- Unbox and inspect: Verify all components—main frame, paper roll holder, pump core unit, PLC control panel, and safety guards—are present and undamaged.
- Position the machine: Place it on a flat, stable surface with at least 30 cm clearance on all sides for ventilation and access.
- Connect power and water: Plug into a 220V/50Hz outlet. Connect the water supply to the pump core system (if applicable for cooling or humidity control).
- Load the paper roll: Insert the paper roll into the feeder, ensuring the edge aligns with the guide rails. Use the tension adjustment knob to prevent wrinkling.
- Calibrate via PLC: Use the touch screen to select cup size (e.g., 150ml, 250ml), set speed (500–1,200 cups/hour), and initiate a test run.
- Monitor and adjust: Observe the first 10–20 cups. If folding is uneven, adjust the guide rollers or re-tension the paper.
- Begin production: Once consistent output is achieved, start full-scale operation. The machine will automatically eject cups into a collection tray.
What Are the Real-World Benefits for Small Businesses?
After using the YG machine for over 10 months, a small dessert shop in Jakarta reported a 40% reduction in packaging costs. Previously, they paid $0.08 per cup from suppliers. Now, with in-house production, the cost dropped to $0.03 per cup—excluding labor and electricity. The machine also allowed them to customize cup designs with their logo, enhancing brand visibility.
Another user, a mobile coffee vendor in Manila, praised the machine’s reliability during high-demand weekends. “It runs smoothly for 8 hours straight without overheating. The PLC system alerts me if the paper runs out or a cup gets misfolded. That’s a game-changer for someone working solo.”
