infeed of eggs

In this section, all equipment and services are described until the breaking process itself. An optimal infeed flow of eggs is in fact the first step for a succesful and hygienic breaking process.

Accumulation of eggs
In order to get eggs in position for breaking, they are placed on roller systems. This can be either a so called "inline" configuration, where eggs arrive directly from conveyors coming from the chicken houses or "offline" via a loader. In case of an accumulator, a high filling ratio of the roller infeed should be combined with an easy to clean accumulator. OvoPro offers a rugged design and easy to clean accumulators with years of experience from inline egg production and grading operations.		Accumulator
Loading of eggs
For small scale operations, manual vacuum hand loading systems from 30 egg trays are available. For automatic loading, OvoPro offers a complete line of egg loaders from low volume single tray loading to high capacity destacker loaders. The loaders operate from line shafts or wash down servo drives. Each loader handles plastic or pulp trays. The OvoPro vacuum cup is now the standard in the industry. It includes a blow-back and CIP feature for reliability and cleaning.		egg loader
Tray washing
After loading, the empty trays are stacked for re-use. Plastic trays need to be washed. OvoPro offers inline and batch - plastic tray washers as well as tray dryers for efficient cleaning and tray stacking.		traywasher

Egg washing
After eggs are placed on the rollers, in many situations eggs need to be washed. A clean egg shell minimises the risk of dirt particles,such as  manure and dust that can carry Salmonella and other pathogens, ending up in the liquid products. OvoPro offers washing capacities from 40 to 500+ cases per hour. The modular design allows for customizing the egg washing system according to the quality of the eggs to be cleaned. Low-pressure, high water volume and more brush surface continuously on the shell surface maximizes cleaning in less travel time through the washer. OvoPro egg washers provide the highest quality, most efficient egg washing system available in the industry today. It cleans a higher percentage of eggs in less space, reduces the rise of internal egg temperature and increases the shelf life of your pasteurized products. OvoPro washers have an open design for faster clean up time.

Candling
Our candlers, available in 5, 6 and 12 rows, provide inspection stations after egg washing for examination of the external and internal quality of the egg. Broken, dirty or inedible eggs can then be removed to prevent cross contamination of the product in the breaking machine.
