Raw materials for egg tray production line
The primary material needed for making egg trays is waste paper, which can include cardboard boxes, newspapers, books, and magazines. These materials are readily available and inexpensive. It’s important to ensure that the paper is clean, free from contaminants and has a consistent thickness.
Water is also essential in the egg tray production process, as it is used to create the pulp. Having a reliable source of clean water is vital for maintaining consistent quality.
In the pulp manufacturing process, chemicals such as sodium hydroxide, sodium silicate, and aluminum sulfate are utilized. These chemicals assist in breaking down the paper fibers, making it easier to shape them into egg trays. The specific amount and type of chemicals used will vary based on the kind of paper and the desired quality of the egg tray.
Workflow of egg tray manufacturing plant
The process of an egg tray manufacturing plant goes through the following steps in sequence: pulp manufacturing → pulp molding → drying → packaging. This usually contains pulpers, egg tray machines, dryers, heat presses, packaging machines, etc.
The production lines for egg trays can differ significantly, leading to variations in the machines used for each stage. For instance, the drying process might involve a metal dryer, brick kiln drying, or even natural air drying. In the case of a semi-automatic egg tray machine, the processes of drying, hot pressing, and packing are all performed manually.
Main equipment of the paper tray production line
The equipment used in egg tray manufacturing plant is capable of managing high volumes of egg tray production while maintaining product quality and consistency, making it highly regarded and sought after by numerous egg tray manufacturers. So, what are the key pieces of equipment in the egg tray production line?
Pulping machine
Typically, just one worker is needed to mix waste paper and water in a 1:3 ratio, turning it into a fine pulp. If a color change is desired, colorants can be introduced at this stage.
Egg tray forming machine
Our egg tray machine comes in various models, with an output ranging from 1500 to 7000 pieces per hour, allowing you to select one that fits your requirements.

Drying machine
After demolding, the egg tray contains about 30% water, so it needs to be dried and cured. We offer various types of drying machines, including brick kiln drying and metal drying. Each drying method comes with its own pricing and production efficiency. (Related Post: Egg Tray Dryer Multi-layer Continuous Drying Machine>>)
Heat press machine
The hot press is effective in further shaping the dried egg tray. After undergoing hot press treatment, the egg tray becomes tougher and more defined.
Packaging machine
Egg trays undergo inspection to identify any defects, including cracks, deformation, and uneven surfaces. Any defective trays are discarded, while the remaining ones are counted, stacked, and prepared for sale or use.
