With the development of the eco-friendly packaging industry, the small egg tray molder has gained popularity due to its low investment, simple operation, and suitability for startup customers. During production, the drying method is a critical factor affecting efficiency.

So, can small egg tray machines be paired with metal drying systems? The answer is: Absolutely, and in some cases, it is essential.

Shuliy small egg tray machine (such as models producing 1500 trays per hour) can be paired not only with natural air-drying systems but also with metal drying lines. A metal drying system is an enclosed hot-air circulation device that continuously supplies heat via a hot-air furnace or burner, enabling rapid drying of egg trays within a short timeframe.

Compared to traditional sun-drying, metal drying operates independently of weather conditions, requires minimal floor space, achieves faster drying speeds, and enables continuous operation. This makes it ideal for customers prioritizing high production efficiency.

Why is metal drying suitable for small-scale egg tray equipment?

Many first-time investors assume metal drying is only applicable to large production lines. However, installing a metal drying system on small egg tray molder machines offers multiple benefits:

  • Enhanced production efficiency: Eliminate reliance on sun-drying, enabling round-the-clock production.
  • Labor cost savings: Automated tray loading/unloading reduces manual handling.
  • Uniform drying and consistent quality: Controlled drying temperatures prevent egg tray deformation.
  • Adaptability to diverse climates: Especially suitable for rainy seasons or high-humidity regions.

Thus, for users seeking rapid production and efficient operations, integrating a metal drying system into small egg tray making machines represents a cost-effective solution.
