HISTORY... Diamond Systems began over 70 years ago. The early history dates back to 1934 when Everett Keen began developing floor feeders and watering equipment along with small egg graders in New Jersey, USA. By the 1940 s Keen and Tony Siciliano mounted their floor feeders on the front of the poultry cage. With the addition of egg belts to collect the eggs, true automation of egg production began. During the 1940 s George Bliss began experimenting with electronic blood detection and then crack detection. He merged his ideas with George Page in the 1950 s to form Page-Detroit. By 1957 they introduced a fully automatic egg grader that weighed, candled and packed 20,000 eggs per hour. Page-Detroit and Keenco met working on a joint project connecting 10 layer cage units into a PA-60 egg grader, the first large inline operation in the world. By the mid 1960 s Diamond International was the world leader in molded paper pulp egg cartons and had purchased both companies plus Lawler, another cage manufacturer, to form Diamond Systems. The egg carton group included Omni Pac in Germany who perfected paper packaging. Heekin Can, another division, introduced large containers for liquid and frozen eggs, and Diamond Systems made extensive advancements in the automation of egg production, egg grading and egg breaking for the industry. By the 1970 s Diamond was installing many large inline facilities around the globe. Many were designed and built by Diamond under a turnkey program. These major projects occurred in Europe, Japan, Australia, the Middle East, and North America. This accelerated Diamond s research, knowledge, and services to the world industry. In 1983 Diamond became a private company and revolutionized the industry with a new generation egg grader, the 8200. This system quickly became the benchmark for the industry. By 1987 they sold the cage product line to concentrate on the high tech grader side of the business. They developed the first high capacity farmpacker and stacker. In 1995 Diamond introduced the first multi row egg breaker separator and received government and USDA approval once again revolutionizing the industry in capacity, yield and quality of the finished product. Diamond has truly been the leader in innovative ideas from the vacuum cup that loads the eggs into the system to the case packer that is the final step before the market. Diamond s engineering, patents and creative ideas continue today with the stainless steel machines, wash down features, advanced machine software, touch screen and compact fully automatic candling. The finished appearance and high quality standards, along with solid engineering design and state of the art manufacturing, all become value added assets for Diamond customers throughout the world.
