Automatic Egg Collection System

2025-12-29

Struggling with egg breakage and rising labor costs in your poultry farm?
You’re not alone. Manual egg collection is slow, error-prone, and resource-intensive. But there’s a better way—automate.

What is an Automatic Egg Collector and How Does It Work?
An automatic egg collection system is a mechanized solution that uses conveyors and egg elevators to automatically collect eggs from poultry cages, reducing labor and improving egg quality. It’s designed for high-efficiency, low-breakage egg gathering in large-scale poultry farms.

Why Choose an Automatic Egg Collector for Your Poultry Farm?

The automatic egg collector is a game-changer for modern poultry production. Designed for large poultry operations, this system eliminates the need for manually collecting eggs, greatly reduces broken eggs, and ensures a better quality of eggs. By integrating a central egg conveyor with high-capacity collection belts and egg elevators, farms can significantly reduce costs, improve consistency, and scale operations with ease.

As a leading livestock breeding equipment manufacturer, we provide fully integrated automatic egg collection systems that are built to last—with galvanized egg belts, anti-corrosion surfaces, and long service life. Our systems are engineered for layer cage and H type layer cage configurations, making them adaptable for most poultry cage layouts.

How Does an Automatic Egg Collection System Work?

At the core of every system is a polypropylene egg collection belt running along each cage tier. As laying hens deposit eggs, the belt gently transports them to a vertical egg elevator, which lifts the eggs to a central egg conveyor.

From there, the eggs are transported to a collection table or grading area. Optional features like egg counters and automatic sorters help track the number of eggs, reducing manual tallying and improving traceability.

Key Features of Our Egg Collection Systems

Galvanized egg belts: Durable and anti-corrosion

Vertical egg elevators: Reduce damage rate and maximize throughput

Low egg breakage rate: Gentle transport ensures cracked shells are minimized

Modular conveyor belts: Easy to maintain and replace

Compatible with multiple chicken cages and house types

Our systems are more efficient than manual egg collection, and installation is plug-and-play. We offer customized configurations based on your coop size, bird population, and cage type.

Reduce Labor Costs with Automation

Labor shortage and rising wages are global concerns for poultry farmers. Our automatic egg collecting system drastically cuts the need for manual labor, allowing 1 worker to manage egg collection for over 20,000 birds. This reduction in labor costs translates directly to improved profit margins and scalability.

Better Egg Quality, Lower Breakage

Eggs collected with traditional manual egg collection methods are more prone to breakage. With our automated conveyor and egg collection belt, eggs are gently transported, avoiding sudden drops or collisions. This improves the overall egg production yield and leads to a better quality of eggs for your customers.

Seamless Integration with Layer Farming Equipment

Our system is fully compatible with poultry cage farming equipment and designed to work alongside manure removal systems, feeding systems, and ventilation units. Whether you’re operating a layer chicken coop or upgrading an existing automatic layer facility, we ensure easy to install setups.
