You don’t need expensive virgin pulp. The BTF 4-4 can process almost any type of paper scrap available in your local market:
📊 Pulping Ratio Reference: To produce egg trays, the mixing ratio of waste paper to water is approximately 1:5 to 1:6 in the pulping stage, and is later diluted to 1:10 to 1:15 in the slurry tuning stage.
By simply changing the molding dies (molds), the BTF 4-4 switches seamlessly from standard egg trays to multiple high-margin packaging items:
Waste paper (like old cardboard or newspapers) is mixed with water in a hydraulic pulper. The mixture is shredded and blended into a specific concentration of paper pulp.
The prepared pulp is delivered to the BTF 4-4 molding machine. Under strong vacuum suction, the pulp is evenly absorbed onto the 4-face mold to shape the wet egg trays, while excess water is sucked away and recycled.
The wet egg trays are transferred to a drying system. Using natural gas, diesel, or LPG as a heat source, the trays are quickly and evenly dried to achieve high rigidity.
The dried egg trays are collected, counted, and stacked automatically by an auto-packer. Once packed into compact bundles, they are ready for storage or immediate shipment to the poultry market.
The 2500-3000 pcs/h capacity perfectly hits the sweet spot for medium-sized poultry farms and start-ups—large enough for commercial wholesale, yet small enough to avoid heavy investment risks.
Equipped with Beston’s high-precision vacuum distribution technology, the BTF 4-4 ensures uniform pulp thickness and perfect tray shapes, achieving an industry-leading finished product rate of over 98%.
With low initial capital requirements, low energy consumption, and high automation, most global investors fully recover their equipment costs and achieve profitability within 6 to 12 months.
Built with top-grade, wear-resistant steel and standardized components, the machine runs with minimal vibration and mechanical wear, extending its service life by an extra 3 to 5 years.
The machine not only has a multi-layer drying structure, but also a highly automated control system. Therefore, this maximizes the use of work space. Additionally, this reduces manual intervention. It offers the flexibility to be moved and reinstalled. This provides easy operation and maintenance.
Metal drying line of the BTF4-4 egg tray making machine adopts multi-layer air recycling, multiple heat source options and heat efficiency recovery design. Therefore, it significantly improves the energy-saving effect. Additionally, this reduces energy waste, making it an efficient energy utilization solution.
The equipment separates the independent combustion chamber from the drying chamber. Thus, pure hot air enters the drying box without pollution or fire hazards. The reserved inspection holes are convenient for maintenance. Besides, the pre-installed metal frame structure increases the safety of operation.
