Automatic Eggtray Packing Process
After wet egg trays exit the multi-layer metal drying equipment, the next step is packaging, AGICO supplies auto eggtray packing machine customized for metal drying equipment and civil engineering drying tunnel. Here is the animation video of how the eggtrays get packed automatically after being dried:
The egg tray packer and baler are typically the equipment used in the final stage of an egg tray production line.
- The egg trays with water content go through the different heating zones of multi-layer drying equipment, with proper timing and temperature, egg trays get dried and exit the dryer in rows.
- The automatic egg tray packer will collect finished egg trays, egg trays get laid in columns and compressed for the next step – egg tray packaging. This packing process can also be realized by hand work, it is suitable for the egg tray machines with small production capacities.
- The egg tray baler will packaging the final trays for saving space and easy transportation. It compresses dried, fluffy egg trays into tight, compact bales for easier and more cost-effective storage and transportation.
❓Q1: Can egg trays be bagged directly after they emerge from the multi-layer metal dryer?
A: Yes, egg trays are completely dried after they emerge from the multi-layer metal dryer and can be bagged directly. This process ensures efficient and orderly production.
❓Q2: How should I choose between an automatic bagging machine and manual bagging?
A: This depends primarily on the scale of the production line and the investment budget.
- Automatic bagging machines: Suitable for medium- to large-scale production lines, used in conjunction with high-output equipment such as multi-layer metal dryers. They provide 24/7, highly efficient automatic bagging and stacking, significantly reducing labor costs and ensuring consistent output.
- Manual bagging: Suitable for small production lines or those with lower production volumes (e.g., daily output below 10,000 pieces). While the initial investment is low, the bagging, stacking, and compression process requires significant manpower, resulting in lower efficiency, and labor costs increase significantly with production volume.
❓Q3: Why do dried egg trays need to be compressed using a bagging machine??
A: Using an egg tray baler for compression is a key consideration for storage and transportation economy.
Pulp egg trays are naturally very fluffy and take up a lot of space (i.e., they are bulky and have low density). The baler uses high pressure to compress multiple stacked egg trays into compact, solid blocks (bales). This significantly saves space, facilitates loading and unloading, and improves efficiency.
