ECAT, specialist in hatchery automation for poultry production, and CEVA Sante Animale have joined hands to create a company dedicated to supply In Ovo Injection equipment, called ''ECAT In Ovo''.

ECAT In Ovo will produce, commercialise and service the In Ovo equipment EGINJECT produced by ECAT.

This partnership will guarantee to hatcheries and biological producers, availability and independent access to quality In Ovo injection equipment. The machinery will be available either for sale or lease and are systematically linked to a specialised after sales service contract.

EGINJECT, In Ovo injection equipment, is a high precision tool which allows quality vaccination, as well as significant saving on vaccines, as compared to other available alternatives in the market.

The range includes an In Ovo injection machine, a candling and removal machine for clear eggs in order to save vaccine and a machine for egg transfer from incubation tray to hatching baskets. The EGINJECT line is available in automatic and semi-automatic systems.

The implementation of this partnership in Brazil is subject to specific conditions.
