3 Meter Lipstick Cooling Tunnel for Lip Balm and Wax Stick Production
Specifically engineered for the cosmetic industry, our 3 Meter Lipstick Cooling Tunnel is a professional chilling and forming unit built to integrate seamlessly with automated production lines. It is primarily used to cool down and set lipstick, lip balm, solid perfume and various solid wax cosmetics post filling. Molten cosmetic compounds right after hot filling are fragile and prone to quality flaws without proper cooling. Boasting a full 3-meter effective cooling area and stable low-temperature environment, this equipment effectively resolves frequent issues like distorted shapes, surface cracks, soft texture and oil sweating. For mid-sized and large cosmetic manufacturers, it is a reliable key device to run continuous mass production with steady output and qualified finished goods.
Key Features & Advantages
- 3m Full-Size Cooling Section for Sufficient Setting Time. With an effective working length of 3000mm, the tunnel creates an extended cooling path for items moving along the conveyor. It delivers enough time for wax-based formulas to complete full solidification, perfectly catering to medium and high-volume production plans while adapting to diverse wax material formulations.
- Wide-Range Adjustable Temperature System. The internal temperature can be flexibly regulated between -20°C and 10°C. Production staff can tailor the temperature setting based on raw material ratios, wax density and actual production demands, so as to achieve the most suitable cooling state for different cosmetic products.
- Bottom Air Supply for Omnidirectional Even Cooling. We adopt a bottom air outlet layout combined with optimized internal ducting. Cold air circulates thoroughly inside the tunnel and reaches every corner without dead zones. Each lipstick and wax stick receives equal cooling from bottom to top, ensuring uniform texture and consistent exterior across every production batch.
- Variable Conveyor Speed for Flexible Production. The conveyor belt comes with stepless speed adjustment. Users can match the travelling speed to required cooling duration according to product types. The whole system supports non-stop long-hour operation, which greatly boosts the overall operational efficiency of the entire production line.
- Hygienic 304 Stainless Steel Build. Constructed entirely from premium 304 stainless steel, the machine features strong corrosion resistance and easy daily cleaning. It fully complies with international hygiene requirements for cosmetic production, and is durable enough for years of heavy-duty industrial use.

Working Principle
After high-temperature blending and automatic filling, the wax and oil mixture inside lipsticks and wax sticks remains in a fluid molten state. At this stage, the internal molecular structure is extremely unstable. Fluctuating cooling speed or uneven temperature distribution will damage the material structure, resulting in various defective products.
As filled products enter the 3-meter cooling tunnel, stable flowing cold air continuously lowers the ambient temperature. Thanks to the long cooling distance, materials gradually solidify under constant low temperature. This scientific cooling process protects the internal structure of raw materials, effectively preventing cracking, deformation and surface sweating, and maintaining stable quality of all finished cosmetics.
Application Scope
This 3-meter cooling tunnel is well-matched with automatic filling and packaging lines, and widely applicable to multiple production scenarios:
- Bulk production of various lipsticks
- Processing of lip balms and tinted lip gloss sticks
- Manufacturing solid perfume and anti-perspirant sticks
- Production of all types of wax-form solid cosmetics
It is a practical and cost-effective cooling and forming solution for cosmetic factories, OEM processing plants and production workshops that pursue stable quality and high daily throughput.
