Ergonomic Handles

Integrated handles or grip areas can be incorporated on one or both sides for convenient carrying.

Raised Rim

A raised perimeter can help keep plates, cups, glasses, bowls, and other items positioned within the tray during handling.

Non-Slip Surface

Suitable surface textures or anti-slip patterns can be incorporated to improve grip and reduce movement of items during serving.

Compartment Design

Multiple sections can be incorporated for separating food, beverages, cutlery, condiments, or other items.

Stackable Design

Stacking features can be added to optimize storage space in kitchens, restaurants, hotels, and catering facilities.

Easy Cleaning

Smooth surfaces and suitable corner radii can help make the tray easier to clean and maintain.

Lightweight Design

Injection moulding enables lightweight tray designs while maintaining suitable rigidity and strength.

Customized Branding

Logo embossing, printing areas, textures, colors, labels, and other branding features can be incorporated according to customer requirements.

Industrial Applications

Plastic serving trays manufactured through our moulding services are suitable for:

Manufacturing Process

Our Plastic Serving Tray Mould and Moulding Service follows a systematic manufacturing process to achieve consistent dimensions and reliable product quality.

Product Design & Development

Customer drawings, 3D models, tray dimensions, depth, rim height, handle configuration, compartment layout, surface texture, and branding requirements are reviewed before mould development.

Engineering Analysis

The design is evaluated for wall thickness, draft angle, shrinkage, rib structure, gate location, cooling requirements, parting line, ejection, warpage, and mould filling.

Mould Design

The serving tray mould is designed using CAD/CAM software according to the required product geometry and production requirements.

CNC & EDM Machining

Mould components are manufactured using CNC machining, EDM, Wire Cut EDM, drilling, and grinding processes to achieve accurate dimensions and suitable surface finish.

Mould Assembly

Mould components are assembled and checked for alignment, cooling channels, ejector operation, guide systems, inserts, and proper mould closing.

Mould Trial & Sampling

Trial serving trays are produced and checked for dimensions, depth, rim height, handle strength, flatness, stacking, surface finish, and overall functionality.

Injection Moulding Production

The selected plastic material is processed using suitable injection moulding technology to manufacture the serving tray.

Cooling & Ejection

The moulded tray is cooled and carefully ejected to minimize deformation and maintain dimensional stability.

Finishing

Flash and excess material are removed. Printing, embossing, labels, surface finishing, or other required operations are completed.

Quality Inspection

Finished trays are inspected for dimensions, weight, flatness, strength, surface quality, stacking performance, and overall appearance.

Raw Materials

For trays intended for direct food contact, an appropriate food-contact plastic grade should be selected according to the intended use and applicable requirements.

Mould Material

The final mould material is selected according to production volume, expected mould life, tray design, plastic material, surface finish, and customer requirements.

Quality Control

We maintain quality control throughout mould manufacturing and serving tray production.

Raw Material Inspection

Plastic materials are checked for grade, quality, color, and suitability for the intended application.

Mould Inspection

Critical mould dimensions, cavity alignment, cooling channels, ejector systems, guide components, inserts, and tolerances are inspected before mould trials.

First Sample Inspection

Initial tray samples are checked against approved drawings, samples, or product specifications.

Dimensional Inspection

Tray length, width, depth, rim height, handle dimensions, wall thickness, and other critical measurements are verified.

Flatness Inspection

The tray base is checked for warpage, deformation, and flatness according to the approved specification.

Handle Inspection

Where applicable, integrated handles and grip areas are checked for dimensions, alignment, and suitable mechanical strength.

Load & Handling Inspection

The tray can be evaluated for suitable load-bearing and handling performance according to the customer's intended application and specifications.

Surface Inspection

Products are inspected for flash, sink marks, warpage, short shots, scratches, bubbles, flow marks, contamination, and other visible defects.

Color & Finish Inspection

Color, gloss, texture, embossing, logos, and printed areas are inspected according to approved specifications.

Packaging Inspection

Finished trays are securely packed to minimize scratches, deformation, and transportation damage.

Production Capacity

Plastic serving tray production capacity depends on tray size, product weight, mould cavity configuration, injection moulding machine, cycle time, plastic material, mould design, and production quantity.

For example, a single-cavity mould operating with a 35-second cycle time has a theoretical output of approximately 103 pieces per hour. A 2-cavity mould operating at the same cycle time could theoretically produce approximately 206 pieces per hour.

Actual production capacity may vary due to cooling time, machine efficiency, material handling, inspection, finishing, printing, and packaging requirements.

Actual capacity is finalized after reviewing the product drawing, 3D model, tray dimensions, product weight, mould cavity configuration, machine capacity, cycle time, material, handle and compartment requirements, and required production quantity.
