An egg-breaking system is provided that includes a plurality of nodes arranged in which one or more cracker assemblies are disposed. The nodes are arranged in a matrix of rows and columns within the egg-breaking system. The egg-breaking system can be used in an egg processing line in which eggs are subjected to a variety of processing steps. The egg-breaking system further comprises a plurality of egg conveyors operably aligned with the cracker assembly array, wherein each of the plurality of egg conveyors is operably aligned with more than one node of the cracker assembly array. The system can be provided such that each node of the cracker assembly array comprises a plurality of egg holders. The system may be provided such that each node of the cracker assembly array comprises an axis about which the plurality of egg holders are movably disposed.L'invention concerne un système de cassage d'œufs qui comprend une pluralité de nœuds comprenant un ou plusieurs ensembles de cassage.
