The Chick Counter combines chick sexing, classification and counting into one operation.  The Chick Counter System is a precision computerized device that will increase processing efficiency in sexing, counting accuracy and reduce the handling stress on day-old chicks.


CHICK COUNTERS CAN HAVE UP TO 16 STATIONS
  Each chick Counter Station is Composed of:
  • One Micro Processed controller that registers the following data:
  • Total straight run chick count per hatch and per month.
  • Total male and female count per hatch and per month.
  • Total male and female count in each station per hatch and per month.
  Each Station is composed of:
  • Two chick sorting ducts made from AISI-304 stainless steel
  • Two optical sensors that count the chicks
  • One station control box with:
    • A buzzer to indicate that a chick box has the correct number of chicks;
    • Push buttons with a red light (males) and a green light (females) that light up when the correct count has been reached.  The light and buzzer are disarmed and the box counter recycled when the button is pushed
