Multi Stage Incubator

Multi Stage Incubator

The Multi-Stage Incubator advances eggs efficiently through the incubation process in a precisely controlled environment. The incubator can hold two rows of six racks each, and its design allows individual settings of two racks into a progressive unidirectional movement through the incubator cabinet.

Continuous operation of the Incubator is simple. Eggs are set twice a week. Every three days, two new racks are rolled into the Incubator, while the existing egg racks are rolled further into the machine. The racks are advanced forward until they are removed from the incubator for transfer to the hatcher. The process takes approximately 18 days for chickens.

The unique environmental system of the Incubator concentrates conditioned fresh air to cool the oldest eggs, while using the heat and carbon dioxide from the advanced eggs to warm the early developing embryos.

The entrance area of the Incubator serves as a mixing chamber, blending fresh air brought in through the automatic intake with conditioned air already in the Incubator. At the exit end, powdered by six fans, the air is turned and moved back through the egg racks, traveling over, under and around each egg in the system. This process ensures that each stage of development receives its proper mixture of heat, moisture and carbon dioxide, resulting in an increased production of higher quality day-old chicks.

The Incubator is equipped with the dependable VJ PT-500 microcontroller controls for accurate monitoring and control of incubator set points.
