2. Key Machinery Categories and Functions

Mattress production involves multiple steps such as spring making, core assembly, fabric sewing, border processing, inspection, and packaging. Consider these essential machines:

A. Spring Machinery

• Spring Coiling Machines: For producing various spring types like Bonnell, pocket springs (including high‑compression models), and LFK springs.
• Spring Assembly Machines: To connect individual springs into units, including fully and semi‑automatic assembly and gluing machines.
• Auxiliary Equipment: Spring conveyors, straighteners, and quality inspection systems. Focus on production speed, compatible spring types, and automation level.

B. Core Material Processing Equipment

• Foam Cutting and Shaping: High‑precision CNC or vertical foam cutters for accurate foam layer dimensions.
• Gluing Systems: Hot melt or water‑based adhesive systems to bond mattress layers efficiently and cost‑effectively.

C. Border and Sewing Machines

• Automatic Tape Edge Machines: For fast, precise edge banding.
• Semi‑Automatic Tape Edge Machines: Suitable for lower‑speed or more manual processes.
• Border Processing: Marking, cutting, stitching, and decorating machines for mattress edges.
• Label and Handle Sewing Machines: For final product finishing.
• Long Arm and Flat Sewing Machines: High‑speed single‑needle and flatbed machines for versatile sewing needs.
• Special Systems: Automatic tape and zipper systems for advanced mattress features.

D. Filling and Quilting Machines

• Filling Equipment: Evenly distributes filling materials inside mattresses.
• Quilting Machines: Stitch mattress cover layers with decorative patterns for durability and aesthetics.

E. Compression and Packaging Equipment

• Mattress Compressors: Reduce mattress volume for easier transport and storage, essential for e‑commerce.
• Packaging Machines: Vacuum sealing and wrapping machines to protect mattresses during shipment.
• Auxiliary Packaging Equipment: Labeling and stacking machines to streamline logistics.
