Incubators are critical equipment in a variety of sectors such as medical care, biological research, and agriculture. Whether supporting premature newborns in neonatal units, nurturing cell cultures in laboratories, or hatching eggs in poultry farms, incubators must provide precise temperature, humidity, and ventilation control for successful outcomes.
In Bangladesh, where healthcare and agricultural industries are rapidly developing, access to reliable incubator service is essential to maintain equipment performance, ensure safety, and improve productivity.
An incubator’s function depends heavily on accurate control of its internal environment. Over time, incubators may face issues like sensor drift, mechanical wear, or electrical faults that can lead to:
Inaccurate temperature or humidity control
Fluctuations that may harm delicate organisms or infants
Equipment failure causing downtime or loss of valuable biological material
Regular professional servicing guarantees:
Consistent and reliable incubator performance
Compliance with health and safety regulations
Prolonged equipment lifespan and reduced repair costs
Peace of mind for healthcare providers, researchers, and farmers
Neonatal Incubators – Used in hospitals for premature and sick newborns
Laboratory Incubators – For cell culture, microbiology, and research applications
Hatchery Incubators – For poultry and aquaculture egg incubation
