Guide to Troubleshooting Common Faults and Daily Maintenance of the Automated Egg Collection System for Layer Cages

As the scale of layer farming continues to expand, traditional manual egg collection and manure cleaning face high labor costs and management challenges. Zhengzhou Livi Machinery has introduced the efficient H-type automated layer cages, which integrate an innovative automatic egg collection and manure cleaning system, improving space utilization and operational efficiency. This article comprehensively analyzes the operating mechanism of the system, module configuration suggestions, and daily maintenance points to help large-scale farms effectively reduce labor intensity, avoid common faults, and achieve intelligent cost reduction and efficiency improvement.

Application and Value in Large-Scale Farms

The automated egg collection and manure cleaning system in large-scale layer farms has significant application value. Currently, farms with 5,000 to 30,000 laying hens often encounter high labor costs and management difficulties in manual operations. The automated system can address these issues. For example, in a farm with 10,000 laying hens, the use of this system can reduce labor costs by up to 40% and improve egg collection efficiency by 30%.

Operating Logic of the Automated System

The innovative design of the layer cages and the automatic collection mechanism are the core of the system. The H-type cage design provides a more comfortable living environment for the hens, and the automatic collection mechanism ensures that eggs are collected in a timely and efficient manner. The following table shows the recommended module configurations for different farm scales:

Farm Scale (Number of Hens) Module Configuration
5,000 - 10,000 2 sets of basic egg collection modules, 1 set of manure cleaning module
10,001 - 20,000 3 sets of basic egg collection modules, 2 sets of manure cleaning modules
20,001 - 30,000 4 sets of basic egg collection modules, 3 sets of manure cleaning modules

Common Faults and Preventive Measures

Common faults in the automated system include egg breakage during collection, blockage of the manure cleaning pipeline, and malfunctions of the sensors. To prevent these faults, regular inspections and maintenance are necessary. For example, the egg collection belts should be checked for wear and tear every week, and the manure cleaning pipelines should be cleaned at least once a month. Additionally, operators should be trained to follow the correct operating procedures to avoid unnecessary faults.

Operation Training Program

A well-trained workforce is crucial for the long-term stable operation of the system. The following is a recommended training program:

  1. Theoretical Training: Provide operators with a comprehensive understanding of the system's operating principle, structure, and safety regulations through classroom teaching. This training should last for about 2 - 3 days.
  2. Practical Training: Arrange on-site practical training for operators to familiarize them with the actual operation of the system, including equipment startup, shutdown, parameter adjustment, and simple fault handling. The practical training should last for about 3 - 5 days.
  3. Regular Refresher Training: Conduct regular refresher training every 3 - 6 months to update operators' knowledge and skills and ensure that they can handle new situations and problems.
