2. Egg tray forming equipment

The egg tray making machine will finish the most important forming step. The pulp is formed on a forming part through the vacuum function. Then we get the wet egg tray. The transfer mold transfers the egg tray to the conveyor belt or small cart, then delivers the egg tray to the dryer line or uses natural drying.

3. Egg tray drying equipment

When the egg tray is forming, it contains a lot of water. So the product needs to be dried, which is easy to store. There are mainly three drying methods: natural drying, brick drying, and a Metal mesh belt dryer. Choose the appropriate drying method according to the capacity. You can choose natural drying if the capacity is below 1500pcs per hour. Metal dryer line: This drying method can use coal, electricity, or gas as fuel.

Then, pulping products can be dried in recycled hot air. The drying temperature can be 180-220 ℃. Then use an axial fan to absorb the water quickly. Our dryer line includes a single belt layer and a multi-belt layer, a single dryer line. The single dryer line length is 42-45 meters. The double-layer length is 22-25 meters. The multi-layer can save the workshop area and use heat more efficiently.

4. Egg tray packing equipment

The pulping mold product through formed and dried, and then can be packed for storage. This egg tray packing machine is used to make the product flatter and smoother. Its temperature is usually 120-200℃.

How to judge the quality of egg tray machine products?

The forming quality of the paper egg tray machine is good, poor, or very poor, which is classified by the degree of homogeneity of the egg tray or the uniformity of fiber distribution. It requires that the fiber concentration is the same microscopically in a certain area selected at random on the egg tray.

The closer the fiber distribution is to this ideal state, the more homogeneous it is. Therefore, the quality of the egg tray making machine pulping system is important. The storage of pulp, flow feeding and the performance of the egg tray equipment forming machine all affect the fiber distribution in the paper mold product to some extent.
