What Is the Capacity of a Six-Head Egg Printer?

A six-head egg printer codes a full 30-egg tray in one pass and is the workhorse of packing lines. On a standard 30-egg tray it runs 20 trays per minute — 600 eggs per minute, or about 36,000 eggs per hour.

Each food-grade cartridge prints tens of thousands of trays before it needs replacing, so per-egg ink cost is very low.

Six independent heads also let you print different content per row and combine for high-definition, high-speed coding.

Why SHICAI: For busy lines, the SHICAI Six Head Egg Inkjet Printer codes a full 5×6 tray in one pass at 20 trays per minute — around 600 eggs per minute, or 36,000 per hour.
