A: cage to egg belt; B: egg belt to elevator; C: elevator to conveyor; D: accumulator; E: accumulator to connector; F: washer to dryer; G: transfer; H: packer.
Values are expressed as G-value.
Total G-value = Sum of the forces on egg at transit points.
TCE = Total of cracked egg (%).
S.D. = Standard deviation.
