Pouch Forming Machine – High‑Precision Aluminum Laminated Film Forming for Pouch Cell Cases
What Is a Pouch Forming Machine?
A pouch forming machine(also known as an aluminum laminated film forming machine) is used to punch pre‑cut aluminum laminated film into a three‑dimensional “pocket” or “cup” shape that will house the electrode stack and electrolyte in a pouch cell. Our machine accepts pre‑cut film sheets (width ≤165mm excluding gas pocket, length ≤460mm, thickness 0.08‑0.20mm). The operator places the film into a three‑plate die, presses a start button, and the machine automatically punches the case. The formed case is then removed – a simple, reliable process for producing high‑quality pouch shells.
Aluminum Laminated Film Forming Machine – Key Features
This aluminum laminated film forming machine incorporates advanced engineering for precision and durability:
Four‑pillar guide structure – Smooth, high‑accuracy sliding, ensuring consistent die alignment.
Quick die change & depth adjustment – Easy and fast to change molds and adjust forming depth.
Superior forming depth – Compared to similar machines, this unit achieves deeper, more stable draws with the same film quality.
No fish‑tail wrinkles or corner collapse – Unique die design eliminates defects at corners and edges.
Safety protection – Light curtain and protective enclosure ensure operator safety.
High‑quality materials – Japanese‑imported die steel, high‑strength chrome steel, and alloy aluminum; surfaces are electroplated and baked with environmentally friendly coatings.
Compact & modern – Sleek geometric sheet‑metal design, small footprint, simple operation.
Die type – Three‑plate mold.
Punch mechanical stroke – ≤12mm.
Forming depth – ≤6mm (depends on film quality).
Pressure – 3 tons.
Upper/lower platen flatness – 0.02mm.
Die/mold core surface roughness – 0.4 (mirror polished).
Mold core flatness – 0.02mm.

Process & Operation
Prepare film – Pre‑cut aluminum laminated film to required dimensions.
Load film – Place film onto the lower die, aligning with positioning pins/features.
Start cycle – Press the start button; the pneumatic‑hydraulic cylinder drives the upper die down.
Forming – The film is drawn into the cavity, creating a precise pocket.
Unload – The formed case is removed manually.
The machine is semi‑automatic: manual loading/unloading, automatic punching. It is ideal for R&D, pilot lines, and small‑volume production where flexibility and low cost are priorities.
