Application details

Flat Lid Solution

Disposable paper cup flat lid solution


We provide customers with complete solutions from paper lid forming to mold customization and material selection.

Flat lids are primarily used in hot and cold beverage cups, takeout cups, and takeout cups. They effectively prevent spills, insulate, and isolate dust, enhancing the overall beverage packaging experience.

Flat lid forming is a relatively compact structure, requiring high material stiffness and sealing precision. Therefore, a production solution requires a high-precision paper lid forming machine, suitable laminated paper, and mold configuration.

Mold Customization and Structural Design


Flat lids are generally available in the following structural styles:


  • Standard sealed lids: Suitable for takeout paper cups, emphasizing airtightness and versatility;
  • Perforated flat lids: Designed with a straw hole, commonly used for cold drinks or milk tea;
  • Spill-proof lids: Features a curled edge or anti-spill ring for a more secure fit.


Mingyuan Machinery can perform precision mold processing based on customer-provided cup opening dimensions or samples, ensuring a perfect fit between the lid and the cup body to prevent leakage.

Your requirements will help us recommend equipment and prepare a quotation.
Which machine is suitable for my cup?

Start with the cup structure, dimensions, paper and output target. The forming machine and any connected equipment can then be discussed.

Do I need printing and die cutting equipment?

It depends on your starting material. A business buying ready-made cup fans has a different equipment scope from one preparing fans from paper rolls.

Can a forming machine make double wall cups on its own?

Double wall projects need the inner cup and outer sleeve to match. Confirm the forming and sleeving combination for the selected cup.

How should I compare the production output?

Confirm the cup, material, tooling, run conditions and accepted output. Forming speed and packaging speed are different measures.
