New Egg Processing Machine (Jul, 1931)
New Egg Processing Machine
A NEW machine, original in design and operation, for the processing of eggs for preservation in cold storage for as long as a year has been developed by a San Francisco machine works. The machine consists of a number of trays moving over rollers which convey the eggs to a hot oil bath, processing an average of 76 cases of eggs per hour, and keeping three operators busy.





What does the hot-oil bath do?
Cook them? Sterilize the shells? Coat them to avoid air infiltration, thus increasing storage life?

Its Lucy and Vivian! The eggs start coming too fast and they have to stuff them in their mouths and shirts.
