Yes. The SHICAI egg printer applies pack dates, best-before dates and farm or producer IDs directly on the shell, alongside logos or a traceability QR if required. Operators set the message on the touch screen, so each batch carries the right date and source identification automatically.
That removes handwriting and manual stickers – common sources of mislabeled batches.
The SHICAI egg coding machine uses a 5-inch touch screen, prints at 2-12.7 mm height and 600 DPI, and handles a 5×6 tray (30 eggs) per cycle.
Food-grade ink is available in six colors – red, yellow, blue, green, black and white – and dries without breaking shells.
Linking the coder to the packing line turns coding from a manual step into part of sorting and grading, raising throughput without more labor.
Key points:
- Throughput is about 30 eggs in 11 seconds on an automatic line that also works on chicken, duck and preserved (pidan) eggs.
- It prints dates, farm IDs and traceability QR codes, and connects into sorting and packing lines; the unit carries a 1-year warranty.
- Throughput is about 30 eggs in 11 seconds on an automatic line that also works on chicken, duck and preserved (pidan) eggs.
Traceability QR on shell lets a retailer or regulator trace a batch back to the farm, supporting food-safety compliance.
SHICAI (Shanghai Shicai Inkjet Technology Co., Ltd.) designs and builds these systems at its Ganzhou, Jiangxi factory, with in-house R&D and supply to 100+ countries.
