Are you planning to start an egg tray business but not sure which machine to choose? We understand that selecting the right equipment can be challenging, especially when you need to consider production capacity, drying methods, molds, and factory space.
At Shuliy Machinery, we help customers find suitable paper egg tray making machines based on their actual production plans. Before you make a decision, let’s look at a few important questions together.
1. How Many Egg Trays Do You Plan to Produce?
Let’s start with your production target. Do you want to supply a local market on a small scale, or are you planning a larger egg tray factory?
Your answer will help us determine the appropriate forming machine and production configuration.
When you contact us, please tell us:
- How many egg trays you want to produce per hour
- How many hours you plan to operate each day
- Whether you expect to increase production in the future
With this information, we can recommend a paper egg tray making machine that better fits your current needs and future plans.



2. What Kind of Paper Products Do You Want to Make?
Are you planning to produce standard egg trays, or do you also want to manufacture egg cartons and fruit trays?
Different products require different mold designs. Our paper egg tray making machine can be configured for various molded pulp products, including:
- Egg trays for holding eggs
- Egg cartons for retail packaging
- Fruit trays for apples and other produce
- Cup trays
- Custom-shaped pulp packaging
If you already have a product design, you can share its dimensions or a sample photo with us. We can then discuss the suitable mold and machine configuration for your project.
3. Which Drying Method Works Best for You?
After forming, the wet trays need to be dried before they can be stacked and packed. So, which drying method should you choose?
We offer several options depending on your working conditions:
- Natural drying: A practical option if you have sufficient open space and suitable weather.
- Drying box: Wet trays are manually placed inside a chamber for hot-air drying.
- Brick drying system: Suitable for projects with a dedicated drying area designed around the production process.
- Metal drying line: Uses continuous conveying and drying, making it a suitable option for larger production setups.
Tell us about your local climate, available space, and expected output. We can help you compare these options and select a drying system that fits your project.
4. Do You Already Have Some Production Equipment?
Not every customer needs to purchase a complete production line. For example, you may already have a pulping system but need a new egg tray forming machine and drying equipment.
A complete paper egg tray production line may include:
- Waste paper pulper
- Sistem pengolahan pulp
- Egg tray forming machine
- Sistem pengeringan
- Conveyors and stacking equipment
- Packing equipment
Let us know which machines you already own. We can review your existing setup and suggest the additional equipment you need, helping you avoid unnecessary purchases.
5. What Should You Confirm Before Ordering?
Once you have shortlisted a paper egg tray making machine, we recommend checking a few details with your supplier before placing an order.
You can ask us about:
- The expected output and applicable product sizes
- Available mold designs and customization options
- The drying system and installation space required
- Electrical requirements for your factory
- Installation guidance, spare parts, and after-sales support
We believe a clear discussion before ordering helps both sides understand the project requirements and makes equipment selection easier.
