When investing in an automatic metal egg tray drying line, especially a 5×8 configuration, buyers typically focus on several key concerns: fuel consumption, temperature control, actual power usage, and equipment durability.

This guide compiles 15 real-world questions from global customers, answered directly by engineers based on actual operating data from a 5000–6000 pcs/h production line.

Whether you are building a new egg tray factory or upgrading an existing line, this article will help you evaluate the equipment from both a technical and commercial perspective.

Heat Source & Fuel Consumption

Q1: Can the drying line use both wood and coal?

Yes. The system uses an external refractory brick furnace, which provides flexible fuel options such as coal, wood, and biomass. It also allows easier maintenance, improves operational safety by separating the combustion chamber, and ensures stable heat supply through an induced draft fan.

Q2: What is the actual fuel consumption?

At a capacity of 5,000–6,000 trays per hour with 65% moisture content, coal consumption is approximately 200 kg per hour, while wood consumption is around 250 kg per hour.

Fuel consumption may vary depending on raw material moisture, ambient humidity, and operator experience.

Q3: Is temperature automatically controlled?

Temperature control depends on the heat source. Coal and wood systems require manual adjustment, while gas and diesel systems support automatic temperature control.

Typical temperature range:

• Hot air inlet: 300–400°C
• Drying zone: approximately 200°C

If stable quality and reduced labor are priorities, automatic control is recommended.

Q4: Is there a dust filtration system?

Yes. The system uses a multi-stage filtration approach including a furnace grid, a 50 cm dust settling chamber, moisture-assisted purification, and an exhaust chimney system. This design is practical and cost-effective for industrial applications.

Drying Performance & Structure

Q5: What insulation is used?

The drying chamber uses rock wool insulation with a thickness of 10 cm and density of 130 kg/m³. It maintains an internal temperature of around 200°C while keeping the external surface at approximately 40°C, improving energy efficiency and safety.

Q6: What are the fan specifications?

The system is equipped with one centrifugal fan with 37 kW power, a 1-meter diameter, and airflow of up to 60,000 m³/h. This ensures full hot air circulation throughout the drying system.

Q7: How is heat distributed evenly?

The drying line uses a three-layer structure:

• Top layer: hot air layer (200–250°C)
• Middle layer: drying layer (around 200°C)
• Bottom layer: return air layer (100–130°C)

Air distribution plates ensure uniform airflow and consistent drying quality.

Key Components & Maintenance

Q8: What gearbox and drive system is used?

The system uses a WPA200 worm gear reducer with a 50:1 ratio from Hangzhou, combined with a Taiwan brand indexer (model 280). These components are widely used in industrial applications and are easy to maintain.

Q9: How does mold cleaning work?

The mold cleaning system uses a fixed spray pipe with 25–30 nozzles. As the machine rotates, molds pass through the cleaning position automatically. This design ensures low water consumption and consistent cleaning performance.

Q10: What spare parts should be prepared?

Recommended spare parts include belts (2–3 sets), spray nozzles (5–10 pieces), and bearings. Chains typically require replacement every 2–3 years, while fans have a long service life under proper maintenance.

Electrical System

Q11: What is the actual power consumption?

The total installed power is 150 kW, with actual consumption around 105 kW during operation. This is typical for continuous industrial production lines.

Q12: Is a voltage stabilizer included?

No, a voltage stabilizer is not included and must be purchased separately. A capacity of 150–200 kVA is recommended, especially in regions with unstable power supply.

After-Sales & Support

Q13: What is the warranty?

The complete machine has a 12-month warranty, bearings are covered for 3 years, and the gearbox is covered for 5 years. The company also provides lifetime technical support and installation guidance.

Q14: Does weather affect production?

Production capacity remains stable throughout the year at 5,000–6,000 trays per hour. Only minor fluctuations in fuel consumption may occur due to environmental conditions.

Q15: Are drawings provided?

Yes. CAD layout drawings, furnace construction drawings, and installation manuals are available. Engineers can also provide remote or on-site support.

Why This Drying Line Is a Smart Investment？

This metal egg tray drying line offers strong advantages including multi-fuel compatibility, energy-efficient three-layer drying structure, reliable industrial components, long warranty coverage, and full technical support. All specifications are based on real operating data rather than theoretical estimates.

Build a Complete Produktion av äggkartonger

To achieve full automation and higher efficiency, the drying line can be integrated with an egg tray forming machine, pulp making system, automatic packing machine, and related spare parts.
