High-speed, cost-efficient, and heavy-duty card processing equipment optimized for local West African production configurations.
Historically, Togo and its neighbors in the West African Economic and Monetary Union (UEMOA) have heavily relied on imported paper and plastic cards, ranging from telecommunication SIM/scratch cards to educational media, playing cards, and financial debit cards. However, dynamic economic shifts in the Autonomous Port of Lomé and the Togo Free Zone (SAZOF) are transforming the nation into a regional manufacturing hub.
Localizing production centers reduces high import tariffs, shipping delays, and currency fluctuation impacts. To capitalize on this movement, printing plants and manufacturing startup operations in Lomé are investing in robust, automated machinery. Investing in direct-from-factory Chinese punching machinery offers the durability, reliability, and precision required to produce high-value card stock locally, boosting regional supply chains.
Our custom card-punching machinery features specialized electrical, mechanical, and material adaptability options to manage the humid conditions and variable grid stabilities common across West African coastal industrial zones.
Exploring the technical engineering features that secure Wentong Machinery's position as a global leader in smart card and post-press equipment.
In the card manufacturing industry, processing diverse materials such as PVC, ABS, PET, and heavy-weight cardboard presents distinct challenges. PVC and PET require precise temperature control and clean shear edges to prevent micro-cracking and static buildup. On the other hand, heavy duplex board and laminated cardboards need sharp tool-steel dies and robust mechanical punch pressure to minimize dust generation and prevent edge delamination.
For procurement officers in Togo looking to optimize their capital expenditures, matching output requirements with the correct model is vital. The table below details key parameters of our flagship systems.
| Machine Functionality | Compatible Materials | Standard Throughput Speed | Positioning Accuracy | Power Requirements |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| High-Speed Smart Card Punching (WT-011ZDCKJ) | PVC, ABS, PET, Teslin, Polycarbonate | Up to 12,000 cards / hour | ±0.10 mm | 380V (50Hz / 60Hz) |
| Playing Cards Cutting & Collating System | Laminated Paper, Coated Art Paper (250-400gsm) | Up to 3,000 decks / hour | ±0.15 mm | 380V / 220V Options |
| Learning & Literacy Card Die-Cutting Machine | Corrugated Cardboard, Greyboard, Duplex Paperboard | Up to 6,000 sheets / hour | ±0.20 mm | 380V (Customized for Togo Grid) |
| Automated Card Packaging & Sealing Machine | OPP, CPP, POF, PE thin-film packaging materials | 8,000 - 12,000 packs / hour | Continuous Film Feed | 220V / 380V 5kW |
Established in 2008, Wentong has built over 20 years of experience in developing and manufacturing smart card machines and post-press equipment. We are committed to constantly improving our products and services to meet customer requirements for producing children’s board books, paper cards, and plastic cards.
Our manufacturing plant is located in the Guangming District of Shenzhen, China, covering an area of 5,000 square meters. The facility is organized into designated processing, assembly, machine testing, and product display areas. Strict implementation of the 5S standard ensures safety and operational efficiency.
Our design team specializes in mechanical engineering, PLC programming, and sensor integration, ensuring every machine delivers consistent performance before export. Holding multiple utility patents and design registrations, we export reliable systems to Southeast Asia, Europe, Africa, and North America.
Our structured engineering process ensures smooth machinery integration into your West African production lines.

Addressing technical concerns, customs import processing, power requirements, and operation logistics for manufacturers in Lomé and broader West Africa.
Our standard industrial machines are built for 380V, 3-phase, 50Hz electrical configurations. If your manufacturing plant in Lomé operates on a different local voltage or experiences frequent supply fluctuations, we customize the internal power transformers and install commercial surge protection systems to prevent electrical damage.
Typically, cargo ships depart from the Port of Shenzhen or Guangzhou, arriving at the Port of Lomé in approximately 35 to 45 days. We secure all heavy machinery in custom sea-freight-ready wooden crates, treated to prevent moisture and rust damage during long-distance transit.
Yes. We design and fabricate custom card molds to meet specific size requirements. Our R&D team works from your CAD drawings or physical plastic/paperboard samples to produce high-tolerance tungsten steel or tool steel dies that ensure clean edges and minimal material waste.
All Wentong systems are built with user-friendly PLC diagnostics. We provide detailed English-language manuals, system schematics, and HD video operation guides. For troubleshooting, our engineers conduct diagnostic calls via Zoom or WeChat. Essential wear items (belts, suction nozzles, heating elements) are stocked and shipped via express courier to keep your lines running.
