Full continuous automatic paper tube making machine with compact, stable structure, ideal for small and medium factories in Africa to produce adhesive tape cores, DTY & POY textile packing paper tubes.
If you run a textile factory, adhesive tape workshop or packaging manufacturing plant in Africa and are looking for affordable, easy-to-maintain core production equipment, this NRC80 automatic paper tube making machine will be your reliable long-term production partner. Many African manufacturers face common challenges: unstable factory space, limited skilled workers, difficulty accessing complicated spare parts, and budget pressure for new production lines. This automatic paper tube making machine is specially optimized to solve these practical pain points, following the design concept of simple layout, compact frame and stable running performance.
This is a complete continuous integrated production line, not a separate single unit. The whole workflow runs synchronously: paper unwinding → double-sided gluing → spiral winding → forming → automatic cutting. Once you feed the kraft paper rolls into the machine, the automatic paper tube making machine can finish all forming steps automatically without frequent manual intervention. Compared with old-fashioned manual or semi-automatic paper core equipment widely seen in local markets, the NRC80 greatly improves output consistency and reduces defective tube rate, which helps African factories reduce waste of kraft paper and raw material costs.
The NRC80 two heads spiral paper tube machine is mainly used to produce high-strength spiral paper cores. Its most mainstream finished products include:
Transparent adhesive tape paper tubes
DTY & POY textile packing paper tubes for yarn winding
Textile mills across Nigeria, Ghana, Kenya, Tanzania and other African regions need a large number of sturdy paper tubes to wind polyester yarn. The double sides gluing structure ensures the paper layers bond tightly, and the finished tube wall is not easy to delaminate or deform under extrusion during yarn winding and storage. The machine supports up to 16 layers of paper winding, and you can freely adjust the wall thickness from 1 mm to 8 mm according to your product requirements, meeting both light-duty tape core and heavy-load textile yarn core production needs.


One of the biggest highlights of this automatic paper tube making machine for African clients is its low threshold for operation and maintenance:
Only 1 to 2 operators manage the whole production line
Intuitive control panel – no complicated programming required
Simple operation training – workers without rich mechanical experience can master the machine quickly
Main engine runs at 1400 r/min; production speed adjustable from 1 m/min to 16 m/min
Flexible speed control: slow down for high-precision small-diameter tubes, or run at high speed for bulk orders
The overall structure is compact. The mainframe dimension is 3000×1800×1680 mm. Many African factories do not have huge workshops; this compact design saves valuable floor space, and you can place the automatic paper tube making machine in existing workshops without large-scale factory renovation. The power configuration is 380V / 7.5KW, which fits most common industrial power supply in African industrial zones. The mechanical structure is simplified, with fewer complicated and vulnerable electronic parts, so the breakdown frequency is much lower. Even in areas with unstable power supply, the machine can keep stable running with proper voltage protection.
We know that after-sales service and spare parts supply are the core concerns for buyers in Africa. NRC Machinery provides:
A clear spare parts list together with the machine
Seaworthy export packing suitable for long-distance ocean transportation to avoid damage during transit
Remote video guidance for installation, commissioning and daily troubleshooting after arrival

A: Absolutely. The NRC80 spiral paper tube machine is designed for small and medium-sized manufacturers. It has a compact footprint, low labor requirement, simple operation and reasonable investment cost. It is a perfect choice if you are newly starting a paper core production business for tape or textile yarn packaging.
A: The rated power of the machine is 380V 7.5KW. We suggest you equip a voltage stabilizer if your factory has frequent voltage fluctuation. The mechanical structure is robust, with fewer fragile electronic components, so it has stronger adaptability to harsh factory conditions.
A: You only need local kraft paper rolls and industrial glue for double-side gluing. These materials are easy to source in most African industrial cities. You do not need special imported raw materials, which helps you control raw material cost.
A: Normally 1-2 workers can learn basic operation within 1-2 days with our remote training. The operation logic is simple, no complicated programming required. Workers can finish size adjustment, paper loading and tube collection easily.
A: Yes. The adjustable inner diameter range is 15-100mm and wall thickness 1-8mm. It supports both thin tape cores and thick DTY & POY textile yarn tubes. You can switch between different sizes according to your customer orders.
A: We use seaworthy export wooden packing for long ocean shipping. We can offer shipping documents and arrange delivery to major African ports. We provide remote video commissioning, operation guidance and spare parts supply. Contact us via https://www.nrcmachinery.com to get a full quotation including freight reference.
