Output depends on bowl size, material thickness, and mold cavity count. As a reference: the SY-850B running a 12-cavity mold at 30 cycles per minute produces approximately 21,600 bowls per hour (518,400 per day on a 24-hour shift). Smaller dessert bowls on higher-cavity molds can exceed 40,000 units per hour.

Yes. SAYEAH bowl thermoforming machines (SY-680B, SY-750B, SY-850B series) can produce both cups and bowls by changing the mold. Our quick mold change system allows switching between product types in under 30 minutes, so manufacturers can run cups in the morning and bowls in the afternoon on the same machine.

PP (polypropylene) is the global standard for hot-fill bowls because it withstands temperatures up to 120°C, is microwave-safe, and offers excellent impact resistance. For oven-safe applications like frozen meal bowls, CPET is preferred — it handles temperatures up to 220°C. Both materials are food-contact approved when sourced from certified resin suppliers.

SAYEAH bowl thermoforming machines can form bowls up to 240mm deep using our blowing technology, or up to 220mm with robotic pick-and-place stacking. This is among the deepest forming capabilities on the market, suitable for tall instant noodle bowls, large soup containers, and deep salad bowls. Our SY-750B I H model is specifically engineered for deep-draw bowl production.
