Fruit tray making machine mainly contains apple tray machine, which is suitable for poultry breeding, animal husbandry, agriculture, carton production, printing and paper industry. Fruit tray making machine can produce kinds of fruit trays according to different fruit tray moulds. The raw materials of fruit tray machine are waste paper, put the raw materials into paper pulping machine, then produce the pulp into fruit trays with the help of fruit tray making machine, if the output of fruit tray making machine is large, civil engineering drying and metal drying methods are suitable, otherwise, natural drying is OK.
Automatic pulp fruit food carton production line
Fruit tray making machine is used to produce fruit trays to store fruits, like apple trays, pear trays and orange trays etc. Our fruit tray making machine mainly refers to egg tray machine which can produce fruit trays used for round fruit. Like egg tray machine, fruit tray making machine needs four steps to make fruit trays, they are pulping, moulding, drying and packing. Each procedure of fruit tray making machine has its own machine, we have pulping machine, moulding machine with different molds, drying machine and packing machine.
The pulp molded fruit tray can be molded into a tray with a fruit surface structure, which is used for the packaging of peaches, pears, citrus, apples, pineapples, tomatoes and other fruits, especially for export fruits, which can avoid collision damage between fruits, and can also distribute The breathing heat of fruit can absorb evaporated water, inhibit the concentration of ethylene, prevent the fruit from rotting and deteriorate, prolong the fresh-keeping period of the fruit, and play a role that other packaging materials can hardly play.
Features of fruit tray making machine
Our company specializes in customizing various fruit tray making machine. At present, paper fruit trays on the market have completely replaced plastic fruit trays. It only needs to change the mold to realize one machine with multiple functions. Our company specializes in customizing all kinds of fruit tray making machine equipment. Paper fruit trays are environmentally friendly and popular. Paper fruit tray equipment has the following advantages:
The raw material is waste paper.
Fruit tray equipment belongs to the environmental protection industry supported by the state, and the market prospect is broad.
A variety of different equipment, fully meet the user’s demand for any output, the output can be from 1000-6000pcs/h.
Quick return with less investment.
Simple technical operation and less labor.
Full automatic drying line can be chosen, what’s more, civil drying and metal steel drying are suitable.
（1） Process Overview
- After the raw material – waste paper (or raw pulp cardboard) is crushed into pulp fibers using a hydraulic pulper, a small amount of functional additives are added to the pulp storage tank and water is added to give the product special functions (such as waterproofing, moisture resistance, anti-static, etc.). The pulp in the tank is adjusted to the required concentration for forming, and then vacuum adsorption is used to form the pulp into wet blanks on a special mold. The formed wet blanks are dried and hot pressed to form the finished product.
- Simple production process: raw materials (waste paper) → hydraulic pulping → pulp water storage tank → mixing system → suction molding → dehydration and drying → hot pressing molding → packaging → finished product.
- Raw materials: The main raw materials for producing pulp molded products are waste newspapers, cardboard boxes, and corner paper from paper mills, cardboard box factories, and printing factories. The raw materials used are abundant in resources, inexpensive, and involve the recycling of waste.
There is no wastewater or exhaust gas discharged during the production process, and the water used in the production process is recycled, which will not cause pollution to the environment and can save water costs.
- By changing the mold, the same equipment can produce various paper tray products, such as egg trays, egg boxes, bottle trays, fruit trays, electronic product inner packaging, and so on.
（2） Pulp making process
Using hydraulic action to break down raw materials (waste paper or pulp) into fibers suspended in water, and then adding necessary additives and water according to process requirements to form a pulp that meets the forming requirements.
（3） Plastic surgery process
After being formed and dried, egg tray products are basically shaped, and the finished products can be manually sorted or packaged and stored directly in the warehouse;
The production process of egg boxes and industrial packaging products requires an additional shaping process after drying, using a hot press shaping machine to shape the products into a neat and beautiful appearance, achieving better toughness and shock resistance.
The shaping process generally uses electricity (or thermal oil) to heat the heating plate, so that the metal mold has a high temperature (180-250 ℃), and uses pneumatic or hydraulic pressure to press pulp products to achieve the shaping effect.
After plastic surgery, some products still need to be labeled or printed with patterns, text, etc. on the surface.
Product characteristics of fruit tray equipment
With the support for the pulp molding industry, the use of pulp molding equipment has become increasingly widespread. This equipment can be applied not only to egg tray equipment, but also to fruit tray equipment. By simply replacing the mold, one machine can achieve multiple uses. Therefore, pulp molding equipment currently has good development prospects.
Our company specializes in customizing various fruit tray equipment. Currently, paper fruit trays have completely replaced plastic fruit trays in the market. Paper fruit tray equipment has the following advantages:
- The raw material is waste paper, which can be widely used locally.
- Fruit tray equipment belongs to the environmentally friendly industry supported by the state, with broad market prospects.
- Multiple different devices fully meet any production demand of users, with a production capacity ranging from 1000-6000p/h.
- Less investment, faster return.
- The technical operation is simple and requires less manual labor.
- The fully automatic drying line can choose between civil engineering drying and metal steel structure drying.
The use of pulp molding equipment recycles waste and reduces pollution. As we all know, most egg trays are made from waste paper, and pulp molding equipment integrates these waste materials into egg trays, reducing resource waste and protecting the environment, which is in line with people’s current living concepts. This equipment can produce different pulp molded products by changing the mold, such as fruit trays, egg trays, egg box trays, coffee trays, industrial packaging trays, shoe supports/shoe supports, etc. Our company can customize suitable products for users according to their needs.
