Double Folding machine is a kind of finishing equipment in industrial washing machinery. It has been used in my country since the early 1980s, mainly in five-star hotels and some large professional laundry factories, and almost all of them were imported equipment at that time. Some Chinese manufacturers began to produce double folding machine in the 1990s, mainly imitating foreign bed sheet double folding machine. Until around 2008, there were no manufacturers in my country that produced towel folding machines. By this time, there were many manufacturers producing bed sheet double folding machines.
2010 was the most prosperous year for my country's folding machine production and sales. Large and small washing machine manufacturers have invested in research and development or mass production. This is because in recent years, due to the increase in labor costs, many laundry factories have deeply felt the superiority of using double folding machines. Especially in some large laundry factories, there are thousands of towels and bath towels that need to be folded every day, which is very labor-intensive. The market opportunity for towel double folding machine is thus created, but the high price of imported towel double folding machines discourages many laundry factories. This gave birth to the enthusiasm of some manufacturers in my country to develop and produce towel double folding machine. Maybe this is the reason why the production and sales of double folding machine have been booming in recent years. However, the production and application of folding machines are still in their infancy in my country, and there are still many gaps compared with foreign products. In terms of product performance, manufacturing process, especially reliability technology, it is necessary to learn from foreign technology, and it still needs to be continuously improved and improved.
Double folding machine is a machine that automatically folds flat materials or a machine that automatically folds towels, pillow covers and similar materials, usually connected to an ironing machine. As far as the double folding machine used at home and abroad are concerned, they are mainly used to automatically fold flat fabrics such as sheets and tablecloths after drying or ironing, or automatically fold dried towels, bath towels, pillow towels, etc. There are also some double folding machines abroad that can fold long bathrobes or pajamas. However, these double folding machines are usually dedicated folding machines, which are not used much. There is no such folding machine in our country.
Our country's earliest double folding machine industry standard is the People's Republic of China machinery industry standard proposed and compiled by Guangzhou Electric Technology Institute in 1999: JB/T8962-1999 "Folding Machine" and JB/T8966-1999 "Folding Machine Safety Requirements". These two standards were approved by the State Machinery Industry Bureau in August 1999 and implemented in January 2000. This is the first double folding machine standard in my country. In these two standards, the type of double folding machine, basic parameters, technical requirements, test methods, inspection rules, packaging, transportation and storage are specified respectively. Safety requirements and test methods for double folding machines, applicable to double folding machines that can automatically fold flat fabrics such as sheets and tablecloths after drying or ironing. Obviously, this is the standard for sheet double folding machines, and the standard for towel double folding machines has not been formulated in my country.
