MX-4 Tunnel Egg Washing Machine
MX-4 Commercial Egg Washing Machine
If you have A LOT of eggs that need washed then the MX-4 Egg Washer from Ovo-Tech might be the solution.
The MX-4 is one step up below the largest egg-washing machine in the Ovo-Tech line, and it can pack a mighty egg-washing punch.
With its arsenal of specially crafted rotating brushes, the MX-4 doesn’t just wash eggs; it gives them a 3D clean, reaching every speck of their surface for unmatched cleanliness.
Here’s the lowdown: eggs roll into the MX-4, greeted by a gravity feeder tray that’s all about seamless introductions.
Then, as they’re gently turned by rollers designed with precision, every angle of the egg is meticulously cleaned, thanks to brushes that leave no spot untouched. But wait—there’s more.
After their spa-like wash, the eggs are whisked away to a drying haven, where a warm air caress dries them to perfection. Running on a closed water circuit, the MX-4 is not just efficient but also a champion of cost-saving. In the egg-washing league, it’s a game-changer.
Water Usage And The MX-4 Egg Washer
When you first kick off the MX-4 Egg Washer, it’ll sip up 80 liters (21 gallons) of water to get things rolling. But here’s where it shines: in water-saving mode, this machine is a real sipper, using just 90 liters (24 gallons) across a whole 8-hour shift.
Toss in 150-200 grams (0.33-0.44 lbs) of detergent after you fill it up and whenever you switch out the water, and you’re golden.
But keep this in mind: the MX-4 likes its space to breathe, so a room with mechanical ventilation is where it thrives. It’s not fussy about temperature—anything from 10-55 degrees Celsius (50-131 degrees Fahrenheit) suits it just fine.
Thanks to its closed-water circuit design, it’s a champ at keeping water use lean and costs low. Plus, every bit that touches your eggs is made of stainless steel, so it’s not just smart with water; it’s squeaky clean too.
