Infrared Treatment
The upper and lower beak are treated with focused infrared energy in a non-contact process. Treatment settings are matched to the chick and the required workflow.
For commercial hatcheries and layer operations planning beak treatment, vaccination and counting within one day-old chick workflow.
Day-Old Chick Processing
The OVOWELL day-old chick beak cutter and vaccinator machine combines non-contact infrared beak treatment, vaccine injection and automatic counting in one processing sequence. Configuration is reviewed against chick age, target output, vaccine plan and site conditions.
Hatchery projects are shaped by the number of chicks that must be completed, the vaccination plan and the handling sequence around each station.
The upper and lower beak are treated with focused infrared energy in a non-contact process. Treatment settings are matched to the chick and the required workflow.
The injection system supports one or two vaccines, adjustable dose and single- or double-needle configuration options.
Automatic counting, needle disinfection, dust blowing and fault alarms support a more structured processing sequence.
The machine should be specified from the chick and vaccine plan, not from a generic model label.
| Decision | Information to provide | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|
| Chick conditions | Type or breed, age at processing and current handling method | Sets the starting process configuration |
| Processing volume | Target chicks per hour and total daily volume | Defines station count and line scope |

Reference capacity and configuration must be checked against the chick, vaccine plan, operator flow and project conditions before order confirmation.
The terms are sometimes used for similar equipment, but the process and configuration can differ. OVOWELL uses infrared beak treatment for day-old chicks and combines the treatment, vaccination and counting steps in one workflow. Confirm chick age, target throughput and vaccine plan before selecting a machine.
Yes. The OVOWELL machine combines infrared beak treatment, vaccine injection and counting in one processing sequence. The final injection and needle configuration is reviewed against the project vaccine plan.
The current configuration supports one or two vaccines and provides single- or double-needle configuration options. Send the vaccine type and required dose for confirmation before quotation.
Start with the number of chicks that must be completed within the daily processing window. The reference capacity is 3,800–4,200 chicks per hour, but station count and line scope also depend on vaccine changes, operator flow and batch handling.
Send chick type and age, target capacity, vaccine type and dose, needle preference, current process, voltage, compressed-air conditions, floor space and whether a standalone machine or broader line is required.
Automatic washing and circulation support for reusable plastic egg trays.
