About GtmSmart

GTMSMART Machinery Co., Ltd. is a thermoforming machine maker located in the Nan'an High-end Equipment Park, Nan'an district, Quanzhou, Fujian province, China. Its range covers small thermoforming machines, vacuum forming machines, multi-station thermoformers and cup thermoforming machines, used for disposable trays, boxes, food containers and cup lids. The company also lists blister moulds and plastic sheet among its products and states that it follows ISO 9001 and holds CE certification. Its website does not give a founding year.

The GtmSmart HEY11 is an entry-to-mid-range roll-fed cup thermoformer that forms, cuts and stacks drink cups, jelly cups and food bowls in PP, PET, PS and PLA. Its product page lists a 380 V, 50 Hz supply, so a Canadian installation needs a matching electrical package, a topic covered in the guide to 600 V power for imported machines. Other cup and container formers are on the thermoforming machines page.

A good fit for

• New and mid-size producers of PP or PET drink cups
• Food packagers making jelly cups, bowls and trays
• Plants trialling PLA cups next to conventional plastics
