Dutch egg grading and packing machines manufacturer, Moba, is ready to launch a new egg-loading equipment – "FL 500".

"FL 500" will have a capacity of 500 cases per hour, which is 180,000 eggs per hour.

The system can be foamed and cleaned by using high pressure cleaning equipment while the open construction enables easy access with no dirt traps. Fences around the loader do not block the view or bother the cleaning procedures, while offering the highest degree of safety to the operators, according to Moba.

Traditional movements have been replaced by a mechanically driven trajectory that is able to place the eggs on the moving roller conveyor while the suction head moves for a short period with the same speed as the roller conveyor.

Unstacking and empty tray handling are also reduced in speed compared to traditional loaders resulting in good reliability.

The FL 500 will be shown on Eurotier and the standard production series will become available early 2009.
