The STAALKAT HPR hatchery packer not only takes care of maintaining high hatchability by its careful treatment of the hatching eggs but also of a considerable saving in labour. This robust built STAALKAT machine, with its ergonomic design, is made from rust-proof material and can be used in a flexible way. By its integrated hatcher tray denester the HPR can also be placed in a small room. The HPR fills both hatcher trays and 6x5 trays (17 lbs). The basic model of the HPR is suitable for 10x15 hatcher trays, a.o. Pas Reform and Petersime. Other models of the HPR are available on request. The HPR is very simple to operate by means of only a few switches.
