[0022] In this embodiment, the heating, forming and unloading processes can be carried out simultaneously through the cooperation of the hot pressing forming mechanism 3 and the unloading mechanism 5. The three-station design significantly improves production efficiency and helps to improve the quality of plastic box products.
