Automatic Roll Out Nesting Box for Laying Hens: Zinc-Aluminum-Magnesium Design for Low-Breakage Egg Collection

Using 3mm hot-dip galvanised zinc-aluminum-magnesium plate, Shandong Huabang Agricultural And Animal Husbandry Machinery Co., Ltd. produces the automatic roll out nesting box for laying hens. Each unit is 1.2m long and 1.4m broad, measuring 1.88m wide and 2m high with the perch connected, and contains around 120 birds per 40kg set. The egg breakage rate is below 0.3% inclined at 8° to the buffer rolling structure. The PP conveyor belt and anti-broody lifting system are constructed to last up to 15 years, and are manufactured to ISO9001 and CE recognised standards.

What Is an Automatic Roll Out Nesting Box for Laying Hens?

An automatic roll out nesting box for laying hens is a motorised egg laying item constructed for ordinary chicken homes. It does away with human nest checks and instead has a self-collecting mechanism.

The eggs slide from the nest floor onto a moving belt and away from the hens before they can be pecked or trampled. The construction integrates nest laying, storage area and conveyance tail in one compact frame.

It’s good for commercial laying hen farms, breeding operations, and even smaller backyard setups that want automated egg handling.

Material and Structural Build

The structure is constructed from zinc-aluminum-magnesium plate, which resists moisture and manure acids within chicken buildings. This plate, after years of regular washing, tends to hold up better against flaking than normal coated steel surfaces.

The conveyor belt for the egg is constructed of PP polypropylene that has a smooth surface and will not split under repeated stress. The nest floor is inclined at an inclination of 8°, so that the eggs migrate out of their own accord without unpleasant bouncing.

Each nest box piece is 1.4m broad without the perch, 1.88m wide with the perch connected and 1.2m long, providing farmers with a consistent footprint for planning home construction.

Technical Specifications

Core Advantages

Very low egg breakage rate. The anti-breakage rolling mechanism in the buffer allows eggs to be moved to the collecting belt in a gentle, steady motion that helps to reduce cracking and pecking damage during everyday usage on the farm.

Intelligent design. Anti broody. Anti perching. There’s a built-in elevating mechanism to elevate the nest body at nite to prevent hens from roosting in the box overnight, as well as keep eggs cleaner by reducing faecal contact.

Self-regulating conveyor belt system . At the back end of the belt, tension adjustment is performed in real time and automatically corrects for deviations, minimising slippage, jamming, and the need for frequent human recalibration.

Modular construction integrated. The egg-collecting platform, laying nest, storage box and carrying tail are formed as one piece. It is directly connected with automated egg collecting lines and is suitable for big standardised chicken homes that require full-project matching.

Less labour expense, more quality of product. Egg harvesting is carried out automatically around the home. It saves labour hours, speeds up egg processing and allows for more stable outputs for commercial breeding projects.

Application Scenarios

To save the daily labour time spent traversing rows of cages or floor pens, commercial laying hen farms employ this automatic roll out nesting box for laying hens. Big farm breeder hen operations depend on it, too, since the anti-broody lift keeps hens rotating among nests instead of camping in one place.

The equipment may be docked directly into the existing conveying system of standard hen houses with automated egg collecting lines. Smaller backyard and family size farms may operate a single unit without the requirement for a fully automated home.

Quality Control and Material Standards

The construction of zinc-aluminum-magnesium plate is tested for uniformity of coating prior to erection, since a thin or uneven coating decreases life when in contact with manure. We check weld locations at the frame joints to make sure they can stand up to the hens’ daily in and out movements with their repeated weight.

The surface edges are examined for burrs in case sharp or rough edges scratch hens or fracture eggs rolling to the belt.

The device is then checked for belt tension and tilt angle to ensure the 8° slope and self-adjusting mechanism function in concert.

Customization and Support

Huabang also provides OEM & ODM services, can create nest box units according to customer designs and home measurements. You can adjust the quantity depending on how long your chicken house is, so larger chicken homes receive more nest sections without having to re-design the complete structure.
