How Do I Match an Egg Printer to My Production Scale?

Q: How Do I Match an Egg Printer to My Production Scale?

Size the printer to your daily egg count: A few thousand eggs a day – a handheld or single-head unit covers it. Tens of thousands a day – a six-head tray coder on a conveyor. Six figures a day, or an existing grader – an inline coder integrated with the grader. Buying too small leaves eggshells uncoded and creates bottlenecks; buying too large wastes budget. Let your line speed and grader throughput set the target, not the headline feature list.
