The paper egg tray machine is a fully automatic and environmentally friendly pulp molding production line designed for the efficient production of paper protective packaging. Using recycled waste paper (including old cardboard boxes, newspapers, and office waste paper) as its core raw material, the machine completes pulping, vacuum molding, and tray forming through an integrated and streamlined workflow, requiring no complex manual intervention. As a highly adaptable small egg tray making machine, it supports quick mold changes to meet diverse production needs. Besides egg trays for poultry egg packaging, it can produce fruit cushioning trays, agricultural seedling trays, and industrial shock-absorbing pads without any modifications to the main unit. The machine’s modular design simplifies daily maintenance, reduces downtime risks, and ensures stable and consistent performance during long-term continuous production.
YG series includes seven models catering to different market demands, with capacities ranging from 1000 pieces/hour to 7000 pieces/hour. Each model is optimized for matching power consumption, number of molding dies, and operational requirements, providing consistent, high-quality finished products while adapting to different production scales—from small-batch customized processing to large-scale full-time factory operations.

Paper Egg Tray Machine Working Principle:
1. Pulp Preparation: Waste paper, old cartons, and other raw materials are put into the pulper, crushed, and mixed with water to form uniform paper pulp with a suitable concentration. No additional chemical additives are needed for standard production.
2. Forming & Shaping: The prepared pulp is transported to the forming system, the molds absorb the pulp evenly under vacuum adsorption, forming wet egg tray blanks with fixed shape, and excess water is separated and recycled to reduce waste.
3. Drying & Finishing: The wet blanks are sent to the drying system (can be matched with natural drying or mechanical drying according to your needs) to remove residual moisture, and finally, finished egg trays with a stable structure are obtained, which can be directly used for packaging.


Paper egg tray making machine Application Fields:
1. Poultry Farming & Egg Packaging: The core application scenario, producing standard 30-hole egg trays for chicken, duck, quail, and other poultry eggs, providing shockproof and protective packaging for egg transportation and storage.
2. Agricultural Product Packaging: By replacing molds, it can produce fruit trays for apples, peaches, strawberries, and other fruits, seedling trays for agricultural planting, and vegetable packaging trays, avoiding bruising during long-distance transportation.
3. Industrial Buffer Packaging: Can produce shockproof buffer liners for glass products, electronic components, ceramics, and other fragile items, replacing non-degradable plastic foam with eco-friendly paper packaging.
4. Small Business Custom Production: Suitable for small batch custom packaging production for local farms, fruit growers, and e-commerce merchants, helping to reduce packaging costs and improve product competitiveness.
7 Features of the YG Egg Tray Maker Machine
1. Eco-friendly & Low Raw Material Cost
The small egg tray making machine uses waste paper, old cartons, newspapers, and other recycled paper as raw materials, with wide and easy-to-obtain sources, greatly reducing production costs. Finished products are fully biodegradable and meet global environmental protection requirements.
2. Energy-saving & Cost-effective
The optimized hydraulic and vacuum system reduces unnecessary power consumption. The smallest model only consumes 28 kw/h, which greatly cuts daily electricity cost, the biggest expense in continuous production.
3. Flexible & Multi-purpose
As a multi-functional egg tray maker machine, it can produce different types of trays by simply replacing molds, without modifying the main equipment, helping you expand your business scope and adapt to different customer orders.
4. Stable & Easy to Operate
The equipment adopts a fully automatic control system with a user-friendly operation interface. Workers can master standard operations after short-term training, with stable production and a low failure rate.
5. Diversified Model Matching
We provide 7 models with production capacities ranging from 1000 pcs/h to 7000 pcs/h, fully meeting needs from family workshops to large-scale factory production.
6. Low Maintenance & Long Service Life
Key components are made of durable materials with a reasonable structural design, reducing wear and tear during long-term operation. Daily maintenance is simple and requires no professional tools, effectively extending the machine’s service life and lowering later operating costs.
7. High Molding Qualification Rate
The uniform vacuum forming system ensures consistent thickness and stable shape of each egg tray. The finished products have high strength and good pressure resistance, greatly reducing defective products and material waste in production.


FAQ About The Paper Egg Tray Machine
A: The cost of our YG series varies by model and configuration. Entry-level small models have a lower one-time investment for startup production, while high-capacity models for large-scale factory operation have a corresponding higher price. Core factors affecting the final quotation include selected model and production capacity, matched drying system, customized mold quantity, automation upgrade needs, and supporting after-sales services. We will provide a transparent, itemized quotation with no hidden costs based on your actual production needs.
A: Yes. The machine can use almost all types of waste paper, including old cartons, newspapers, office waste paper, corrugated boxes, and other recycled paper. No special raw materials are required, which greatly reduces your production cost.
A: Yes. This paper egg tray making machine can produce fruit trays, seedling trays, shoe trays, industrial buffer liners, and other paper molded products, only needs to replace the corresponding molds, without the need to modify the main equipment.
A: Natural drying is suitable for areas with sufficient sunlight and low humidity, with no additional electricity cost, but it is affected by the weather. Mechanical drying can realize continuous production all day, not affected by the weather, with stable finished product quality, suitable for large-scale production.
A: Yes. You can add a small amount of waterproof agent in the pulping process to make the finished egg trays have a certain waterproof performance, which is suitable for long-distance transportation and humid environment storage.
