The raw materials of the paper egg trays include waste A4 paper, old books, magazines, cartons, cardboard, newspapers, discarded paper egg trays, various types of plant fiber pulp, and other recycled paper-made products. They are all easy to find and have low prices.

Paper egg tray has good anti-static performance, anti-corrosion performance, waterproof performance, and shock absorption performance, which reduces the damage probability of eggs. In addition, it will not pollute the environment and can be recycled. It is called green packaging.

The production process of the paper egg trays is simple and pollution-free, the production speed is fast, and the efficiency is as high as 98% – 99%. A small egg tray making machine can produce more than one ton of egg trays in a day. Besides, it has low technical requirements for personnel.

The capital investment of paper egg trays is relatively small, the profit is high and the cycle is short. Except for equipment costs, the main costs during production include power, water, raw materials, labor, and maintenance. Let’s take a small egg tray machine as an example, which can make 1000 pieces of egg trays per hour.

Detailed Paper Egg Tray Manufacturing Process

PAPER EGG TRAY MANUFACTURING PROCESS INCLUDES FOUR STEPS: PULPING, MOLDING, DRYING, AND PACKAGING.

Paper Pulping Process

Firstly, workers need to manually (or assisted by a belt conveyor) feed waste paper into the hydraulic pulper. The waste paper is stirred, rubbed, and crushed in the pulper with a certain proportion of water (20%-30% water and 70%-80% paper) until the paper pulp is formed. After the paper pulp is prepared, the impurities in the pulp will be filtered out by a screener and then the purified pulp is transported to the pulp pool for temporary storage. Next to the pulp pool are mixing tanks where the paper pulp is homogenized by pulp beaters for a better concentration. In this process, we can add pigments and other additives. The number of mixing tanks can be increased or decreased according to the production scale.

Paper Egg Tray Molding Process

The egg tray molding process follows after the pulping process. The pulp pump sends paper pulp into the slurry hopper under the egg tray making machine. With the help of a vacuum pump system, paper pulp is tightly adsorbed on the rotary mold for shape forming. Meanwhile, a part of moisture in the pulp is taken away by this system. The water sucked out is stored in a water tank prepared for secondary application. After that, the air compressor system assists to separate the formed egg trays from the molds, and then the egg trays are carried away by the belt conveyor to the drying system. After the above processes are complete, the cleaning device will clean the mold.

Paper Egg Tray Drying Process

The Paper egg tray drying process is to completely dehydrates the egg tray for improving the firmness and shockproof performance. It mainly has natural drying, brick drying, and metal drying three modes.

Paper Egg Tray Packaging Process

The paper egg tray packaging process mainly includes three steps: hot pressing, counting, and packaging. Egg trays will be firstly fed into the hot press machine for smoothing surface, unifying thickness, and polishing edges under a high temperature. Then they will be packed in a certain amount by an automatic counter and packer. If adding a label or pattern on the egg tray is necessary, you can equip your egg tray production line with a labeling machine or printing machine.

It is optional. If you want to produce egg trays with different colors or just upgrade the water-proof performance, you can add some pigments or related additives. One kilogram of dye can be used to produce 10,000 egg trays.

If you choose natural drying, the drying time and temperature depend on the local weather, humidity, and wind force, but it usually takes 4-7 hours. If you choose a brick drying line or a metal drying line, it will take 10-25 minutes, as to the temperature, probably at 200-230℃.

The transportation time depends on the destination and the construction needs about 14-30 days.

There are plastic molds and aluminum molds for egg tray manufacturing. The plastic molds can be used for more than 2 years, and have a one-year warranty.
