The 8 side egg tray machine, also known as a large-scale egg tray forming machine, is equipped with an 8-sided rotary drum. It enables high-speed, continuous production, making it especially suitable for factories with medium to large-scale output requirements.
SL-4000-4*8 can produce about 4000 eggshells per hour. Egg plate molds can be customized according to the buyer’s requirements. This equipment can be continuously produced and ensures production capacity. In addition, because the whole production process is recycled waste paper, no pollution sources, so it is called green environmental protection machinery.
Model SL-5000-5*8 egg tray machine can produce about 5000pcs egg trays per hour. It is 45 angle and an eight-plate rotary tray machine. Eight plates form a board, and all systems can be connected. This transfer arm makes a 90-degree reciprocating motion. The working efficiency is very high.
The SL-7000-6*8 is our company’s highest-capacity egg tray forming machine, with an output of up to 7,000 pieces per hour. It features an 8-sided rotary drum with 6 egg tray molds on each side, making it ideal for efficient, large-scale production in big factories.

How to make egg trays?
Raw materials are mainly straw pulp, slurry, bamboo pulp, wood pulp, waste paperboard, waste paper box paper, waste white paper, paper mill tail pulp waste, etc. The raw material has a wide range of source and is easy to collect. The egg tray machine is the main machine for the egg tray production line.
Feeding the pulp in the pulp pool into the molding machine. The pulp is absorbed by the vacuum system, and the pulp is molded by the mold on the equipment. The water is absorbing and transporting back into the pulp pool through the vacuum pump. The water can be recycled.
After the mold adsorbs the water slurry, the transfer mold is discharged through the air compressor. The finished product is blown from the forming mold onto the transfer mold, and then it is sent out by the transfer mold.

Egg tray cost analysis table
Cost Item | Description | Unit Cost per Tray (RMB) |
Raw Material | 1 ton of waste paper can produce 12,000–15,000 trays (based on tray weight). Based on 80g per tray: 1,000,000g ÷ 80g = 12,500 trays Waste paper price: ¥1500/ton → 1500 ÷ 12,500 = ¥0.12 per tray | ¥0.12 |
Labor | Sun drying: 6 workers; drying by machine: 4 workers. In China, Labor is often calculated by piecework: approx. ¥0.02 per tray. | ¥0.02 |
Electricity | Varies with capacity and power consumption. Higher output means lower cost per tray. | ¥0.02 |
Drying Fuel | Coal (5000 kcal/kg) Wood (4000 kcal/kg) Natural Gas (8900 kcal/m³) Diesel (11,900 kcal/liter) | ¥0.03/pc ¥0.03/pc ¥0.06/pc ¥0.08/pc |
Pigment (optional) | ¥12/kg pigment; 1 kg can produce approx. 3000–4000 trays | Approx. ¥0.003–0.004 |
