Wholesale Egg Washing And Grading Line In Indonesia
Wholesale Egg Washing and Grading Line for Indonesia
Overview
An egg washing and grading line integrates cleaning, drying, weighing, and sorting stages to prepare table eggs for market distribution. The system handles capacities ranging from 5,000 to 30,000 eggs per hour, depending on module configuration.
Key Technical Parameters
The line consists of modular units: pre‑wash spray tank, brush washing section, air‑drying tunnel, candling station, weight grading scales, and packaging conveyor. Each module is driven by variable frequency drives (VFDs) allowing speed adjustment from 0.5 to 2.0 m/s.
Materials of construction are primarily stainless steel grade 304 for contact surfaces and powder‑coated mild steel for frames. Sealing uses food‑grade EPDM gaskets rated for temperatures up to 80 °C.
Typical Performance Values
| Parameter | Range | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Egg throughput | 5,000 – 30,000 pcs/h | Dependent on egg size and grading precision |
| Washing tank volume | 150 – 500 L | Stainless steel, agitated |
| Air‑drying temperature | 20 – 30 °C (ambient) | Filtered air, HEPA optional |
| Weight grading accuracy | ±1 g | Load‑cell based scales |
| Power consumption | 3 – 12 kW | VFD‑controlled motors |
Applications in the Indonesian Egg Supply Chain
Indonesia’s egg production is concentrated in Java and Sumatra, with farms ranging from smallholder operations to integrated commercial complexes. A washing and grading line reduces microbial load, improves shell appearance, and enables compliance with SNI 01-3920-2009 standards for table eggs.
By integrating weight grading, producers can separate eggs into retail‑size categories (small, medium, large, extra‑large) without manual labor, lowering sorting errors and increasing pack‑line efficiency.
Customization Options
- Optional UV‑C disinfection module post‑drying for extended shelf life.
- Adjustable lane width from 200 mm to 350 mm to accommodate different egg sizes.
- Choice of conveyor belt material: PVC, polyurethane, or stainless‑steel mesh.
- Integration with existing packing robots via Modbus TCP or Ethernet/IP.
- Remote monitoring package with IoT sensors for temperature, vibration, and motor current.
Quality Assurance and Testing
Each module undergoes factory acceptance testing (FAT) that includes water spray uniformity, bacterial reduction log‑reduction (measured via ATP bioluminescence), and weight scale calibration traceable to national standards.
Warranty covers 12 months against defects in materials and workmanship, with spare‑parts availability guaranteed for 10 years.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Can the line be adapted for duck eggs or quail eggs?
A: Yes, by changing brush hardness, adjusting spray pressure, and re‑configuring grading scales, the system can handle non‑standard egg types.
Q: What information is required to prepare a quotation?
A: Required inputs include target hourly capacity, egg size distribution, facility layout dimensions, and any specific regulatory standards to be met.
Q: How is the equipment shipped to Indonesia?
A: Modules are packed in wooden crates with heat‑treated pallets, sealed with moisture‑barrier film, and loaded onto 20‑ft or 40‑ft containers depending on volume.
