Uma 2000–3000 PCs/hr egg tray making machine is also called a multi-face rotary drum machine. It refers to a machine with multiple forming surfaces that can produce pulp egg trays quickly and efficiently, with an hourly output of 2,000–3,000 pieces.
Shuliy offers this type of egg tray making machine in two models: SL-3*4 and SL-4*4. The SL-3*4 model has an output of 2,000–2,500 pieces per hour, while the SL-4*4 model produces 2,500–3,000 pieces per hour. Like many pulp egg tray machines, this 2,000–3,000 PCs/hr egg tray machine uses paper pulp to produce egg trays.


This medium-capacity egg tray making machine is suitable for small or medium egg tray factories. If large-scale production is required, a 4,000–8,000 PCs/hr egg tray making machine can be selected.
Shuliy’s popular 2,000–3,000 PCs/hr egg tray forming machine attracts customers from more than 50 countries and regions, including Brazil, the United States, Russia, Saudi Arabia, Nigeria, Ghana, and South Africa, thanks to its durability and high output of high-quality egg trays.
Why is the 2,000–3,000 PCs/hr Egg Tray Machine Called A Multi-side Rotary Drum Machine?
Uma máquina de tambor rotativo multi-face refere-se a uma máquina de fabricação de bandejas de ovos com um design de tambor rotativo na seção de formação. O tambor é o componente central de uma máquina de bandeja de ovos multi-face e geralmente é uma estrutura rotativa cilíndrica ou poligonal.
"Multi-lado" significa que o tambor possui múltiplas superfícies de transferência, cada uma com vários moldes de formação de bandejas de ovos. O tambor gira continuamente para alcançar alta velocidade de produção. A máquina de 2.000–3.000 peças/h tem quatro superfícies de formação.
Máquinas de formação de bandejas de vários lados geralmente possuem quatro ou oito superfícies. Em comparação com a máquina de 8 lados, a de quatro superfícies tem produção moderada, estrutura compacta, menor custo e operação mais simples, sendo adequada para fábricas pequenas e médias.

What Can This Egg Tray Machine Produce?
The 2,000–3,000 pcs/hr egg tray making machine is not limited to standard egg trays. By changing the forming and transfer molds, the same rotary forming system produces a wide range of molded pulp packaging. This flexibility allows medium-sized factories to serve multiple markets without buying separate machines.
| Product Category | Examples | Typical Applications |
|---|---|---|
| Egg packaging | 12-cell, 20-cell, 30-cell egg trays; flip-top egg cartons; quail egg trays | Poultry farms, supermarkets, retail packaging |
| Fruit trays | Apple trays, orange trays, berry trays, avocado trays | Fruit exporters, fresh produce packaging |
| Beverage carriers | 2-cup, 4-cup, 6-cup coffee cup carriers | Coffee shops, takeaway delivery |
| Bottle packaging | Wine bottle trays, liquor bottle trays | Winery and spirits distribution |
| Industrial packaging | Electronic component trays, hardware trays | Electronics factories, appliance manufacturers |
| Agricultural trays | Seedling trays, nursery cups, flower pots | Horticulture, nurseries, farming |
| Consumer goods | Shoe inserts, cosmetic trays, gift packaging | Footwear, cosmetics, retail gift boxes |
The most common output for the SL-3×4 and SL-4×4 models is the standard 30-cell egg tray. This format is widely used in Africa, Asia, and South America. For operators targeting supermarkets or export markets, flip-top egg cartons and colored trays offer higher margins. Fruit tray molds are popular in agricultural regions where farmers need protective packaging for export crops.














What Raw Materials Can Be Used?
As matérias-primas mais comuns são papel de descarte e água. Outros materiais podem incluir papel kraft, papel ondulado e papelão, todos contendo fibras.
Some customers use industrial residues from paper mills, and some use one-sided coated waste paper. All materials need to be mixed with water and pulped before production. The typical ratio of waste paper to water is 1:10. Egg trays made from this waste paper are environmentally friendly, biodegradable, and durable.

How Does an Egg Tray Making Machine Work?
Uma máquina de fabricação de bandejas de ovos de 2.000–3.000 peças/h geralmente usa o princípio de formação de tambor rotativo multi-face. Durante a operação, a polpa é bombeada para os moldes de formação, que moldam as bandejas de ovos no tambor rotativo em sequência. As bandejas passam por desaguamento, prensagem e secagem, sendo finalmente descarregadas automaticamente pela esteira. Todo o processo é contínuo e eficiente, sem necessidade de intervenção manual, sendo adequado para produção de bandejas de ovos de pequeno e médio porte.

Egg Tray Drying Methods for 2,000–3,000 Pcs/Hr Production
At 2,000–3,000 pieces per hour, wet tray output exceeds what natural sun drying can reliably handle. Shuliy offers two practical drying configurations for this capacity level.
Option 1: Multi-Layer Drying Room
The drying room is a batch-type dryer with stacked carts or shelves. Wet trays are loaded onto carts and wheeled into the heated chamber. Hot air circulates through the room at 60–120°C until moisture drops below 12%.
| Parâmetro | Especificação |
|---|---|
| Capacity match | 2,000–3,000 pcs/hr forming output |
| Heating source | Electricity, natural gas, diesel, or coal |
| Drying cycle | 45–90 minutes per batch |
| Necessidade de mão de obra | 1-2 workers for loading and unloading |
| Floor space | 50–100 m² depending on tray volume |
| Best for | Humid climates, limited initial investment |
The drying room is the most common pairing for the SL-3×4 in regions with unpredictable weather. It protects trays from rain and dust. The lower initial cost makes it attractive for first-time investors.

Option 2: Continuous Mesh Belt Dryer
The mesh belt dryer transports trays through a heated tunnel on a moving conveyor. This creates a continuous flow from forming to packaging.
| Parâmetro | Especificação |
|---|---|
| Capacity match | 2,500–7,000 pcs/hr |
| Heating source | Natural gas, diesel, coal, or LPG |
| Drying time | 15–25 minutes |
| Necessidade de mão de obra | Minimal, mostly monitoring |
| Floor space | Longer but narrower than drying room |
| Best for | High output, limited labor, consistent production |
The mesh belt dryer raises equipment cost but reduces labor and cycle time. It is ideal for factories planning to run two shifts or expand toward the higher end of the SL-4×4 capacity.

Drying Method Selection Guide
| Your Situation | Recommended Dryer |
|---|---|
| Limited budget, humid climate | Multi-layer drying room |
| Plan to expand to 4,000+ pcs/hr | Secador de correia de malha |
| Unreliable electricity | Drying room with coal or gas burner |
| Need minimal labor | Secador de correia de malha |
| Limited factory length | Sala de secagem |
What Does a Complete Egg Tray Production Line Include?
A 2,000–3,000 pcs/hr egg tray production line includes more than the forming machine. Shuliy supplies a coordinated system where each module is sized to match the forming output.


Sistema de Desagregação
| Component | SL-3×4 Configuration | SL-4×4 Configuration |
|---|---|---|
| Hydropulper | 2 m³, 11 kW | 2 m³, 11 kW |
| Agitator | 3 kW | 3 kW |
| Supply pump | 4 kW | 4 kW |
| Sewage pump | 1.5 kW | 1.5 kW |
The pulping system processes waste paper into 2–3% consistency slurry. A typical batch takes 15–20 minutes. The 2 m³ pulper keeps pace with both models.

2. Forming System
Sistema de Formação
| Component | SL-3×4 | SL-4×4 |
|---|---|---|
| Forming machine | Four-side rotary | Four-side rotary |
| Forming molds | 12 pcs (3 per side) | 16 pcs (4 per side) |
| Transfer mold | 4 peças | 4 peças |
| Cycle speed | 10–15 strokes/min | 10–15 strokes/min |
| Bomba de vácuo | 18,5 kW | 18,5 kW |
| Compressor de ar | 11 kW | 11 kW |
The forming system is the production core. Vacuum suction draws pulp onto the molds. Compressed air transfers wet trays to the dryer conveyor.

Sistema de Secagem
The drying module is selected based on climate and budget. Either the multi-layer drying room or the mesh belt dryer can be paired with the SL-3×4 and SL-4×4.


Packaging System
| Component | Função |
|---|---|
| Automatic tray stacker | Counts and stacks dried trays |
| Pneumatic baling machine | Compresses trays into bundles |
| Conveyor belts | Moves trays between stations |
The packaging system reduces finished product volume by 30–40%. This lowers transport costs and simplifies warehouse storage.

How to Choose the Right Egg Tray Machine Capacity?
Selecting the correct capacity prevents over-investment and production bottlenecks. Match the machine to your current needs with room for growth.
| Your Daily Target | Modelo Recomendado | Reasoning |
|---|---|---|
| 20,000–30,000 trays/day | SL-3×4 (2,500 pcs/hr) | Lower investment, enough for local supply |
| 30,000–50,000 trays/day | SL-4×4 (3,000 pcs/hr) | Matches medium factory output |
| 50,000+ trays/day | SL-4×8 or larger | Higher capacity for commercial scale |
Consider these factors when deciding:
- Market demand: How many trays can you sell daily?
- Operating hours: Will you run one or two shifts?
- Raw material supply: Can you source enough waste paper?
- Facility size: Do you have space for the dryer and raw material storage?
- Budget: Can you afford the mesh belt dryer, or should you start with a drying room?
A common mistake is buying the largest machine possible. If your daily sales are 25,000 trays, the SL-3×4 is the rational choice. You can upgrade later when demand grows.

How Much Does a 2,000–3,000 Pcs/Hr Egg Tray Machine Cost?
