Automatic Egg Collection System
ABC Machinery automatic egg collection system adopts advanced European technology and suits both A-type layer cages and H-type layer cages, available in longitudinal and transverse designs. This automatic egg collection system is ideal for medium to large-scale poultry farms. It allows for fast and efficient egg gathering from battery cage systems. With high automation it reduces labor costs and saves time. Automatic egg collector ensures gentle egg handling to minimize breakage and helps prevent bacterial spread. Easy to operate and reliable in performance, it offers poultry farmers a smart solution for improving productivity and hygiene.
- Capacity: 40,000 eggs/hour
- Belt Width: 400 mm (customizable)
- Power Supply: 220V / 380V, 50Hz / 60Hz
Details of Automatic Egg Collection System
The whole set of the egg collection system is a large-scale automatic egg collection system composed of an import device, egg collection device, export device, buffer device, conveying device, chain gear, and long drop chain. The system is suitable for large and medium-sized layer chicken farms. It has a high degree of automation, can save manpower and material resources, and greatly improve labor production efficiency.
The working principle of the automatic egg collecting system is: after the eggs are sent to one end of the chicken cage by the longitudinal and horizontal egg collecting belt, the eggs collected from multiple chicken cage tiers are concentrated on an egg collecting platform by their respective vertical egg collecting machines, and the eggs are packed manually or by egg suction device.
Egg Conveying System
The egg belt drive transfers the eggs gently from the nest to any connected egg collection system. The reinforced drive unit operates at a speed of 2.6 m/min and is available for different egg belt widths: 245 mm, 350 mm, 400 mm, and 500 mm.
- the unit can be removed, thus facilitating cleaning with a high-pressure washer;
- anti-crack “fingers” provide a light pressure on the eggs, which ensures a controlled transfer to the cross belt;
- stainless steel tension wires guarantee a smooth transfer of the eggs while simultaneously allowing feathers, dust and soft-shelled eggs to fall down between them.
Egg Belt Transfer System
Egg Belt Transfer System connects the nest with the downstream cross collection unit. Designed for straight-line operation, this system ensures smooth egg movement. It features reinforced plastic tubes connected by roller chains on both ends, forming a stable and reliable transfer belt. The spacing between the belts is optimized to safely transport eggs—even across ascending or descending gradients of up to 25°.
Vertical Egg Conveyor System
Vertical egg conveyor system is mainly used when nests are arranged in an offset layout, where there is limited space between the nests and the cross collection system, or when obstacles must be bypassed.
It operates at ascending or descending gradients of up to 50°, and is available in two widths: 350 mm and 500 mm. The system is powered by an independent drive unit, allowing for flexible egg collection speeds. Frequency regulation of the longitudinal egg belts is recommended (optional).
EC Egg Elevator System
The EC elevator is able to collect large numbers of eggs. Especially in multi-level houses (up to three levels), the elevator can be equipped with an extra wide elevator chain and is thus an efficient egg collection system: it does not require much space and collects up to 15 000 eggs per hour. A new feature is the option for “system egg collection”: the elevator can simultaneously collect eggs mislaid in the system. All belts either run into the elevator in parallel or system eggs are collected separately.
Digital Egg Flow Control System
When using digital egg flow control system, the egg belt speed is controlled so that the egg flow matches the capacity of the grader or packer in an ideal way and across all houses.
- Graders and packers are continuously loaded at full capacity, enabling significantly shorter collection times.
- Ideal egg quality is ensured through smooth and gentle egg transport.
- Belts automatically start in the morning, with egg flow stopping in front of packers or graders to prevent delays at the start of collection.
- Collection groups can be scheduled one day in advance.
- Egg collection is completed simultaneously across all houses in the same collection group at maximum filling rates.
- Eggs from the next collection group are transported to the cross belt sequentially.
- Improved advance planning through increased process transparency at the packer.
Main Advantages of Automatic Egg Collector
Low Breakage Rate
The anti-slip design combined with the automatic egg-picking function helps reduce egg breakage to as low as 0.3%, ensuring better product quality.
High Efficiency
Eggs are quickly transferred either to the front of the poultry house or directly to the central egg storage, streamlining the entire collection process.
Durable and Stable
Built with high-grade, wear-resistant materials, the system delivers reliable and stable performance, ensuring long service life in intensive farming conditions.
Easy Operation & Labor Saving
Simple control panel design makes operation easy—just start the system and it runs automatically, significantly reducing labor intensity and costs.
