egg tray production
4.8/5 - (6 votes)

As the demand for eco-friendly paper packaging continues to grow in Europe, a customer in Cyprus invested in a complete egg tray production line from Shuliy to establish a local molded pulp packaging business. To ensure smooth production startup, our engineering team traveled to Cyprus to provide comprehensive installation, commissioning, and technical training services.

This project demonstrates Shuliy’s ability to deliver not only reliable equipment but also professional on-site support for customers worldwide.

Customer Requirements for Egg Tray Manufacturing in Cyprus

The Cyprus customer planned to produce paper egg trays from recycled waste paper and needed a complete production solution with stable output and easy operation.

After evaluating the customer’s production goals and factory layout, we recommended a complete egg tray production line consisting of:

  • Paper pulping machine
  • Pulp lifting conveyor
  • 4×4 egg tray forming machine
  • Two box-type egg tray dryers
  • Multiple drying carts and metal drying trays
  • Supporting pumps, pipes, and electrical control systems

The selected 4×4 egg tray machine has a production capacity of 2,500–3,000 pieces per hour, making it ideal for medium-scale egg tray manufacturing.

On-Site Installation and Pulp Pool Construction

After all equipment arrived at the customer’s factory, Shuliy engineers traveled to Cyprus to supervise the installation process.

One of the key tasks was constructing the pulp storage and water circulation pools according to the engineering drawings agreed upon before shipment. These pools play an essential role in the pulping and recycling process, ensuring stable pulp supply throughout production.

Based on the factory layout, the engineers guided local workers in building the pulp tanks and arranging the piping system to achieve efficient material circulation.

Complete Equipment Assembly and Commissioning

Following the completion of the infrastructure work, our engineers installed and connected all major equipment.

Pulping System Installation

The pulping machine and storage tanks were assembled first. The pumps, pipelines, and mixing components were carefully adjusted to ensure smooth pulp preparation and transportation.

Egg Tray Forming Machine Setup

The 4×4 egg tray forming machine was then installed and connected to the air compressor and vacuum system. The engineering team conducted multiple test runs to optimize forming quality, tray thickness, and production efficiency.

Worker Training and Production Guidance

In addition to equipment installation, our engineers provided practical training for the customer’s operators.

The training covered:

  • Equipment operation procedures
  • Daily maintenance methods
  • Production troubleshooting
  • Mold replacement techniques
  • Safety management practices

After several days of training and trial production, the customer’s team was able to independently operate the entire egg tray production line.

Successful Startup of the Cyprus Egg Tray Project

With the support of Shuliy’s technical team, the Cyprus customer successfully completed the installation and commissioning of the egg tray production line and quickly entered commercial production.

The project includes a complete pulping system, a 4×4 egg tray forming machine (2,500–3,000 pcs/h), two box-type dryers, and supporting drying accessories, providing a reliable solution for sustainable paper packaging manufacturing.
