Top-Quality Egg Cleaning Solution for Small to Medium Farm Owners
Engineered with the Small and Medium Farmers in Mind
Since its inception, National Poultry Equipment Company (NPE) has been at the forefront of the poultry industry, pioneering advancements that have reshaped egg processing and sanitation. From the development of the groundbreaking Magic Egg Cleaner to the robust Sani-Touch, egg washing systems, NPE continues to set the standard for efficiency, quality, and innovation in poultry equipment for the small to medium sized farms.
A Storied History of Innovation
The journey of NPE began in 1935 with the creation of the Magic Egg Cleaner by Clyde and Walter Powell. This revolutionary device used sanding loops to buff eggs as they moved along a conveyor belt. Despite its initial success, the increasing demand for higher processing speeds led to the invention of the Aquamagic egg washing system, which introduced the use of nylon brushes and a water-based cleaning solution. This advancement not only improved cleaning efficiency but also integrated candling and grading into a single process, marking the first of many innovations by NPE.
The Sani-Touch Line: Modern Solutions for Modern Needs
Today, NPE’s Sani-Touch line represents the pinnacle of egg processing technology. Each model is designed to cater to different scales of operation for small and medium sized farms. Key models include:
- Sani-Touch Table Top: Designed for portability and ease of use, this model cleans up to 1,000 eggs per hour. It connects directly to a sink faucet and features manual temperature control, making it an excellent choice for smaller or more flexible setups.
- Sani-Touch Model 5: Ideal for smaller operations, this model processes up to 2,520 eggs per hour. It features chute loading, a collection table, and options for additional enhancements such as chemical feed pumps and mechanical scale graders.
- Sani-Touch Model 10: Great for the more, middle sized operation. The model 10 can process up to 5400 eggs per hour. It features chute loading, a collection table, and options for additional enhancements such as chemical feed pumps and mechanical scale graders.
- Sani-Touch Model 20 and 30: These models are perfect for high-volume operations, with the ability to process up to 10,800 eggs per hour. They come equipped with spool spinner candlers, heavy-duty brushes, and full case cross loaders, ensuring efficient and thorough egg cleaning and grading.
All models, with the exemption of the Table Top, are able to include options. A few of those options are:
- Cross Loader: A modular straight conveyor designed to feed the Spool Spinner at a 90 degree angle. It can be loaded by an existing conveyor or manually.
- Spool Spinner: Situated before the washing section, the Spool Spinner, receives eggs from a conveyor and orients them in the correct position for candling, cleaning, and grading.
- Digital Grader Table: Nestled after the drying section, the Grader utilizes a digital scale system to weigh each egg. Once the weight is captured, the egg travels to one of the six sorted locations.
- Vac–Pack: Replacing the Grader Table, the Vac-Pack features five oscillating grids and a reject tray. The grids, gather the eggs and positions them points down. The eggs can them be picked with a vacuum lifter up to 30 eggs at a time.
