Egg tray making machine price ranges from $9,000 to $70,000. It is influenced by many factors, such as production capacity, drying method, etc. Below we will explain what makes the price difference. Also, there is some advice for you to choose a suitable machine on the basis of the rich exporting experience, including India, the Philippines, Ghana, Russia, etc.
Scale And Egg Tray Making Machine Price
The scale, to be specific, the number of molds, is the first direct influencing factor of egg tray machine price. Beston has one-sided, four-sided, eight-sided, and twelve-sided rotary egg tray machines for sale, which can make 1,000 to 6,000 trays per hour. In general, the greater the output, the higher the price. So ask yourself how many trays you want to make per hour.
Automation and Egg Tray Machine Price
Except for the size, the automation level also makes great differences in the egg tray machine price. In general, the better the automation, the higher the egg tray making machine price. However, an automatic egg tray manufacturing line is more effective, which can make more trays. Meanwhile, it can save money on labor force and energy. Let’s see the detailed parameters.

The main difference between manual, semi-automatic and automatic egg tray machine is the drying system. Now there are four different egg tray drying lines to choose from. They are natural drying, brick drying line with carts, brick drying line with a conveyor belt, and metal drying line with a conveyor belt.
Natural Drying
Natural drying means drying the egg trays under the sun. In general, it takes 2-3 hours to dry the pulp molded trays completely with good weather. Besides, it requires a large space and manpower. So it is only suitable for small egg tray machines, such as BTF-1 and BTF-4 machines. However, it can greatly reduce your egg tray making machine cost. Thus, manual egg tray machine is very popular among small-scale investors.
Brick Drying Line
Comparing to natural drying, the brick drying room is more efficient. Moreover, using a conveyor belt makes the egg tray production line more automatic and easy to operate. Besides, it is cheap than a metal drying line. Therefore, this drying system is most widely used for BTF-4 and BTF-8 machines, etc. Here is a video from our Indonesian customer for your reference.
Metal Drying Line
Metal drying line is fully automatic, which is easy to operate, transport, and install. Moreover, we can provide a multilayer conveyor belt to save your space. It is often employed with large egg making tray machines, such as BTF-4-8, BTF-5-8, BTF-5-12, etc. However, if there is no brick in your local market, you’d better choose a metal drying line instead. Here is a video of a fully automatic egg tray machine.
Obviously, the drying line matters the automatic level of an egg tray production line. It also greatly influences the egg tray making machine price. What you need to do is to choose the cost-effective one. Welcome to contact Beston to customize an egg tray manufacturing business plan according to your needs.
Design and Egg Tray Making Machine Cost
Except for the size and automation, the egg tray making machine price is also affected by the design of molds. With different pulp molding dies, we can make various pulp trays, such as egg cartons, shoe trays, apple trays, seedling nursery trays, etc. Due to the special techniques, the price of pulp molding machine will be different with different molding dies.
