Egg Tray Making Machine Price and Quotation
Egg tray making machine price depends on what the offer includes. Confirm the tray, output and drying arrangement before comparing a forming-machine quote with a complete production line.
Send Richon your requirements for a configuration-based quote. Undecided items can be reviewed before the final offer.
How Egg Tray Machine Price Is Quoted
First identify the supply boundary. The same machine model can appear in offers with different molds, auxiliaries, dryers and service arrangements.
Forming Machine
Define the machine, control system, molds and transfer equipment. Check which pulping, vacuum and compressed-air equipment must be supplied separately.
For a replacement machine, confirm the interfaces with the existing factory systems.
Production Line
List pulping, forming, drying and handling equipment as separate sections. Specify mold quantity, dryer arrangement and the agreed automation functions.
Review the complete egg tray production line configuration.
Factory Project
Add the site costs outside the supplier’s equipment scope: construction, utility connections, local labor, transport and applicable import charges.
A production-line quote should not be treated as the total factory investment unless those items are expressly included.
For market and delivered-project cost context, use the egg tray machine price guide. For the technical reasons quotations differ, read the engineering cost factors. This page focuses on defining and requesting the offer.
Compare Configurations Before Comparing Prices
Use the current model references below to start a discussion, not as a guaranteed finished-tray output. Confirm the tray specification and matching systems in the quotation.
| Richon Model | Reference Output (pcs/h) | Quotation Checks |
|---|---|---|
| REM 3-1 | 1,000 | Confirm tray type and weight, molds supplied, planned working hours, pulp preparation, vacuum and air equipment, wet-tray transfer, dryer capacity and stacking arrangement. |
| REM 3-4 | 1,500–2,000 | |
| REM 4-1 | 1,000–1,500 | |
| REM 4-4 | 2,500–3,000 | |
| REM 4-8 | 4,000–4,500 | |
| REM 5-8 | 5,000–5,500 | |
| REM 6-8 | 6,000–6,500 | |
| REM 8-8 | 8,000–9,000 |
Reference output supports initial selection. Actual output depends on the final configuration and operating conditions. Review capacity solutions with your required production schedule.
Specify the Automated Tasks
“Automatic” is not a complete equipment list. State whether wet-tray transfer, dryer loading, unloading, stacking and packing are manual or automated.
Check the Whole-Line Output
A forming-machine capacity alone does not establish the factory’s saleable output. Review dryer throughput, handling and planned downtime before confirming the line.
How Drying Changes the Quotation Scope
Keep the drying arrangement explicit. A quote without a dryer cannot be compared directly with a line that includes one.
Natural Drying
Confirm racks or handling equipment, drying area and the intended production schedule. Review seasonal weather before budgeting for this arrangement.
Separate local item: land, covered space and handling labor where required.
Brick Dryer
Define the supplied conveyor, drive and heating equipment. Identify responsibility for the tunnel construction, insulation and site work.
Separate local item: construction materials and labor unless included in writing.
Metal Dryer
Specify dryer sections, heating arrangement, controls and connections to the forming and handling systems. Confirm fuel and available utilities.
Separate local item: foundations and site utility connections unless included in writing.
For engineering selection, review the drying system comparison. Confirm site interfaces through factory planning before finalizing the equipment list.
What to Check in a Richon Quotation
Mark each item as included, optional or supplied by the buyer. An unlisted item should be clarified, not assumed to be included.
| Section | Confirm in the Offer | Clarify the Boundary |
|---|---|---|
| Pulp preparation | Pulper, pumps, tanks and any screening or refining equipment required. | Tank construction, pipes, valves and water connections. |
| Forming and molds | Machine configuration, tray design, mold material, sets and quantities. | Additional tray types, spare molds and changeover items. |
| Vacuum and air | Pumps, compressor and associated equipment. | Interconnecting pipework and utility supply points. |
| Drying and handling | Dryer, heating, transfer and stacking functions where selected. | Construction, fuel connections and manual handling tasks. |
| Electrical and controls | Supply requirements, control cabinet and agreed control functions. | Site distribution, field wiring and local electrical work. |
| Installation and service | Drawings, guidance, commissioning, training and spare-parts scope. | On-site attendance, travel, accommodation and local labor arrangements. |
| Commercial terms | Currency, payment stages, delivery basis, packing and quote validity. | Freight, insurance, duties, taxes and unloading as applicable. |
Keep the Local Budget Separate
Buildings, foundations, utility connections and import costs can sit outside the equipment offer. Record who supplies each item. Ask for the agreed delivery schedule and service terms in the written quotation.
Information Needed for a Configuration-Based Quote
Send the information you have. Mark missing details as “to be confirmed” so they remain visible during the equipment review.
Product and Production
- Tray or carton type, dimensions and target weight.
- Required hourly or daily output and working hours.
- Waste-paper source and any existing pulping equipment.
- Required mold sets and additional product types.
- Manual or automated transfer, loading and stacking preferences.
Factory and Delivery
- Country and project location.
- Workshop dimensions, usable height and available land.
- Electricity supply, water source and available fuel.
- Preferred drying method, or the options under consideration.
- Existing equipment, intended delivery destination and project timing.
Submit the Project Inputs
Include a tray drawing or sample dimensions and a simple site sketch when available.
Review the Configuration
Confirm the required systems, available site services and unresolved choices.
Check the Written Offer
Review equipment quantities, exclusions and commercial terms before confirming an order.
Local operating costs and tray sales belong in a separate business calculation. They do not turn an equipment quotation into a profit or payback guarantee. Use the egg tray business plan to review those assumptions.
Egg Tray Making Machine Price FAQ
How much does an egg tray making machine cost?
Richon quotes against the agreed configuration. The model, molds, auxiliary systems, dryer, handling equipment and delivery terms determine the offer. Send your requirements to obtain a price for a defined equipment scope.
Can I request a forming-machine quote without a complete line?
Specify that you need machine-only supply and list the systems already available. Confirm pulping, vacuum, air, transfer and dryer interfaces before comparing the replacement machine with a complete-line offer.
Can you quote before the drying method is decided?
Send your output target, site dimensions, climate and fuel options. Identify drying as an open choice. Any initial comparison should state its assumptions and be revised when the dryer arrangement is agreed.
Does the equipment price include installation and freight?
Only when they are explicitly listed. Check the delivery basis, freight, on-site service, travel and local labor arrangements. Do not infer these from a single total price.
Why can two quotes for the same output differ?
They may cover different tray specifications, mold quantities, automation tasks, dryer arrangements or service boundaries. Compare those items first. The cost-factor explanation covers the engineering differences.
