Core Components and Operation Process of the Automated Egg Collection System

Your pursuit of efficient egg production begins with a deep understanding of the automated egg collection system in our Zhengzhou Liwei Machinery's high - efficiency H - type layer chicken cages. This system is mainly composed of an automatic slide, a conveyor belt, and a storage area. Eggs are gently rolled onto the automatic slide as soon as they are laid by the hens. According to industry statistics, the average efficiency of egg collection in this system can reach 98%, which is significantly higher than the traditional manual collection method. The eggs are then smoothly transported to the storage area via the conveyor belt. This process saves a substantial amount of labor time. With this system, you will obtain a streamlined egg - collection process, saving you both time and effort.

Mechanical Structure and Operational Logic of the Fecal Cleaning System

A clean and hygienic environment is essential for the health of laying hens and high - quality egg production. Our fecal cleaning system features a unique mechanical structure. A scraper device is installed under each layer of the chicken cage. It operates at regular intervals, usually once every 2 - 4 hours, depending on the number of chickens in the cage. The feces are scraped into a collection trough and then transferred to a storage tank through a conveyor. By using this system, you can significantly improve the hygiene level of the chicken coop, reducing the incidence of diseases among the chickens and increasing egg production. In fact, some large - scale farms that have adopted our fecal cleaning system have seen a 15% increase in egg production.

How to Extend Equipment Lifespan through Routine Maintenance

Regular maintenance is the key to ensuring the long - term stable operation of the equipment. For the automatic slide in the egg collection system, it is recommended to perform lubrication every 2 - 3 weeks. This will ensure that the eggs can roll smoothly without any jams. As for the fecal cleaning system, you should check the integrity of the scraper blade every month and replace it in time if it is worn out. By following these simple maintenance steps, you can extend the service life of the equipment by at least 3 - 5 years, saving you a large amount of replacement costs in the long run.

System Adaptation Suggestions for Different Breeding Scenarios

Whether you are running a small - scale or a large - scale chicken farm, our intelligent chicken - raising equipment can be well - adapted. For small - scale farms, you can choose a smaller - sized H - type layer chicken cage, which has a relatively simple configuration but can still meet your basic egg - production needs. On the other hand, large - scale farms can opt for a more complex and integrated system. Such a system can support a larger number of chickens and can be easily expanded according to your future development plans. Through reasonable system adaptation, you can optimize your investment and improve the overall efficiency of the farm.

Data Comparison: Efficiency Difference between Traditional and Automated Modes

Let's take a look at the dramatic differences between the traditional and automated farming modes. In the traditional mode, the daily egg - collection rate per worker is about 500 - 800 eggs, and the labor cost for fecal cleaning accounts for about 30% of the total cost. In contrast, with our automated system, one worker can handle the egg - collection work for 5,000 - 8,000 hens, and the labor cost for fecal cleaning is reduced to less than 10% of the total cost. Additionally, the egg breakage rate in the automated mode is as low as 1%, while in the traditional mode, it can reach up to 5%. These data clearly show that by adopting our intelligent chicken - raising equipment, you can achieve a significant increase in efficiency and a substantial reduction in costs.

Typical Problem Troubleshooting and Common Fault Handling Methods

Even the most reliable equipment may encounter some problems. If the egg conveyor belt is not running smoothly, you can first check if there is any foreign matter stuck in it. If the fecal cleaning system fails to operate, check the power supply and the control system. Our technical support team has compiled a detailed troubleshooting guide, and we also provide 24/7 after - sales service to ensure that your equipment can resume normal operation as soon as possible.
