Egg Tart Maker
The ZL-TP001 egg tart maker presses 20-22 g dough billets into foil cups at 40-45 pcs/min, from a 3,760-cup magazine holding about 100 minutes of run. Moulds for 206, 207 and 208 sizes are interchangeable, and a 1.5 m conveyor buffers the loading. 1.5 kW, 380V 50Hz, SUS304.
Product Overview
The egg tart maker is an automatic egg tart making machine in the ZL-180 Series Machines category. It presses dough billets into aluminum foil cups to form tart shells for bakeries, pastry shops and central production kitchens. The ZL-TP001 model runs at 40-45 units per minute, holds 3760 foil cups per load for about 100 minutes of continuous operation, and builds food-contact parts in SUS304 stainless steel.
For a bakery scaling up from hand pressing, the bottleneck is usually speed and portion consistency, not the filling. This machine slices each dough billet to a stable weight and seats the foil cup with a vacuum system before pressing, so shell weight and shape stay repeatable across a shift. One operator can oversee 8-10 units, which changes the labor math on a tart line.
Key Features
- Vacuum foil placement system: seats each aluminum foil cup correctly before pressing, so shells do not deform from a misaligned cup.
- Accurate dough slicing: holds the billet weight steady, which keeps shell thickness and bake result consistent from the first tray to the last.
- 3760-cup foil magazine: runs about 100 minutes between refills at full speed, cutting the stoppages that break production rhythm.
- Foil bowl and dough stick alarms: remind the operator to reload before the line runs empty, so you are not clearing half-formed shells.
- Empty-cup detection: identifies cups with no dough automatically and skips them, which protects the press and reduces waste.
- SUS304 food-contact construction: suits daily washdown and hygiene inspection in a food production area.
- 1.5 m pastry stick conveyor: gives the operator a working buffer to load dough without reaching into the press zone.

Industrial Applications
- Egg tart maker for bakery production: central bakeries running Portuguese-style and Hong Kong-style tarts use the 40-45 pcs/min output to keep shell supply ahead of the oven, with the 3760-cup magazine covering a full production block.
- Egg tart maker for tart shell forming: pastry operations that supply shells to other shops need repeatable 20-22 g billets and consistent cup seating; the dough slicing and vacuum foil system deliver that without a skilled presser on every unit.
- Egg tart maker for custard tart production: custard tart lines need a shell that holds filling without leaks, so the press quality matters more than speed; the empty-cup detection keeps defective shells out of the filling stage.
- Egg tart maker for pastry shops: shops moving from hand pressing to machine output use one unit with 8-10 units per operator to raise volume without adding headcount.
- Egg tart maker for frozen tart shell supply: producers freezing shells for distribution need uniform weight and shape for packing and baking consistency; the stable billet weight supports that specification.
Key Advantages
- At 40-45 pcs/min, one machine outpaces a small hand-pressing team, so shell supply stops limiting your oven schedule.
- The 3760-cup load gives about 100 minutes of unattended foil feeding, which removes the frequent refill stops that eat into a shift.
- Eight sets can save 7 workers, with annual labor cost savings stated at more than 300,000 RMB for that scale of line.
- Stable dough slicing and vacuum cup seating cut rejected shells, which reduces raw material and foil consumption across the run.
- One operator can manage 8-10 units, so labor is redeployed to filling, baking and packing rather than pressing.
- The same machine handles 206, 207 and 208 tart specifications, so a product range change does not require a second press.
How to Choose the Right Configuration
| ZL-TP001 for a single production line | bakeries needing 40-45 pcs/min with one operator; the standard 380V 50Hz configuration covers most sites. |
|---|---|
| ZL-TP001 with 206/207/208 mold set | shops selling more than one tart size; confirm the sizes you run so the molds match your foil cups. |
| Multi-unit ZL-TP001 line | larger bakeries where 8 sets replace 7 workers; plan the layout around the 2200 x 1400 x 1750 mm footprint per unit. |
| ZL-TP001 for frozen shell supply | producers who need uniform 20-22 g billets for packing; discuss your target weight with the sales engineer before ordering. |
| Voltage-specific ZL-TP001 | buyers outside the standard 380V 50Hz supply; confirm your site voltage at quotation so the machine is configured correctly. |

FAQ
What tart sizes can this egg tart maker run?
The machine handles 206, 207 and 208 tart specifications, which are the sizes commonly sold in the market. Tell us the size you sell and we will confirm the mold and foil cup match before you order.
How does the vacuum foil system work?
A vacuum system seats each aluminum foil cup correctly before the dough is pressed into it. That keeps the cup square to the press, so shells come out with an even rim instead of a deformed edge.
What does the 20-22 g gram weight range mean for my recipe?
It is the dough billet weight the slicing function is set to hold. If your recipe needs a different billet weight, discuss it with the sales engineer; the slicing is set to keep that weight stable through the run.
Can the egg tart maker for custard tart production handle a filled tart line?
The machine forms the shell; filling and baking are separate stages. Custard tart producers use it because the empty-cup detection keeps defective shells out of the filling stage, which matters when a leak ruins a whole tray.
Can I use it for frozen tart shell supply?
Yes. Uniform 20-22 g billets and consistent cup seating suit shells that will be frozen and packed for distribution. Confirm your packing specification with us so the shell dimensions match your trays.
What is the egg tart maker price and how do I get a quotation?
Price depends on configuration, mold size, voltage and order quantity. Send your tart size, target output and site voltage, and we will quote the matching ZL-TP001 configuration.
What is your MOQ for a trial order?
MOQ depends on the configuration and whether molds are customized. Tell us your trial requirement and we will confirm what can be arranged for a first order.
Do you offer OEM and spare parts support?
OEM and ODM enquiries are welcome; send your drawing or sample specification. Spare parts and technical support are arranged at order, and we confirm the parts list with the machine.
What is the lead time and payment terms?
Lead time is confirmed when the order is placed, based on configuration and quantity. Payment is a deposit to schedule production with the balance against shipping documents, as agreed in the contract.
