The ZMDT-5×8 fully automatic egg tray forming machine was successfully shipped to Côte d'Ivoire.
Project Background: From Demand Analysis to Customized Production Solutions
A new and emerging environmentally friendly packaging company in West Africa planned to invest in a pulp molded egg tray production line to meet the local market demand for egg transport packaging. After preliminary research, the customer identified the following core requirements:
Core Customer Needs:
Medium-scale production capacity: Daily production of approximately 5,000 egg trays, meeting regional market demand
Automated production: Reduced manual labor and operational complexity
Equipment stability: Initial investment must ensure trouble-free production
Complete technical support: Lack of industry experience requires comprehensive guidance throughout the entire process
Quick return: Shortens payback period and accelerates profitability

Our Solution: ZMDT-5×8 Fully Automatic 8-Station Egg Tray Production Line
Comprehensive Support:
Full plant planning (floor plan/3D model/piping diagram/foundation plan)
Full-cycle after-sales support: Remote installation guidance, operator training, and process parameter tuning
