Infrared Egg Counter

Egg Management

 

Accurate. Contactless. Built for Poultry Performance.

The egg counter uses infrared technology to count eggs without touching them, ensuring high accuracy and protecting egg quality. This egg counting system brings real‑time data into egg production. It helps detect issues early and improves packing efficiency and overall workflow operations.

 

Integration With the MAXIMUS Egg Flow Controller

When connected to the Maximus controller, egg counters help smooth and improve the egg collection process. This combined solution offers:

  • All your egg counters in one report

    Daily egg counts per counter, row, and house for better production insight and decision-making.

  • Optimized egg flow and packing capacity

    The automatic belt speed regulation aligns egg supply with packing station capacity, reducing congestion, breakage, and downtime.

  • Flexible system configuration

    Counters can be organized by belts, rows, or houses to support multi‑zone and multi‑house operations. 

 

Trust MAXIMUS’ infrared counter to keep your operation running at maximum efficiency.

Infrared sensors mounted above the conveyor actively scan each egg as it passes underneath. The system counts eggs in real time by detecting breaks in the infrared beam, even at high conveyor speeds. No egg contact means no damage, no soiling.
