Egg Tray Production Process Flow
Our advanced pulp molding technology transforms recycled paper into high-quality egg trays through an efficient, environmentally friendly process
Production Process Overview
The pulp molding process transforms recycled paper into protective egg trays through six key stages, combining advanced technology with environmental sustainability to create high-quality, biodegradable packaging solutions.
Raw Material Preparation
We source high-quality recycled paper materials, primarily old newspapers and cartons, which are sorted and prepared for the pulping process. This ensures consistent quality and environmental sustainability.
- Carefully selected recycled paper sources
- Quality control and sorting process
- Environmental sustainability certification
- Consistent material quality assurance
Pulp Preparation
Recycled paper is mixed with water in a hydraulic pulper to create a uniform pulp mixture with the right consistency for molding. The pulp is refined and additives are introduced to enhance strength and quality.
- Automated mixing system ensures consistency
- Precise control of pulp density and viscosity
- Water recycling system reduces waste
- Quality additives for enhanced durability
Molding Process
The prepared pulp is transferred to forming molds where vacuum suction forms the egg tray shape and removes excess water. This creates the basic structure of the egg trays with precise dimensions.
- Precision molding ensures accurate shape
- Quick forming increases production efficiency
- Efficient dewatering reduces drying time
- Custom molds for different tray designs
Drying Process
Newly formed egg trays go through a multi-stage drying system to remove remaining moisture and strengthen the structure. Our energy-efficient drying technology ensures optimal moisture content.
- Energy-efficient drying system reduces consumption
- Uniform heat distribution ensures consistent quality
- Precise humidity control prevents over-drying
- Multi-zone temperature optimization
Fully Automatic Collection
Our advanced automated system collects, counts, and stacks finished egg trays with precision and efficiency. This process eliminates manual handling and ensures consistent quality throughout the production line.
- Robotic collection system ensures gentle handling
- High-precision counting for accurate batch sizes
- Automated stacking optimizes space utilization
- Quality inspection during collection process
Hot Pressing & Shaping
Trays undergo hot pressing to create smooth surfaces, precise shapes, and increased durability. This process enhances the structural integrity and gives the trays their final form.
- High-pressure forming enhances structural integrity
- Precise temperature control ensures consistency
- Uniform dimensions facilitate stacking and packaging
- Smooth surface finishing for better product presentation
