Cimuka T1280C — Dual-Stage Setter & Hatcher (Set and Hatch Together)

The T1280C lets you set eggs on top and hatch chicks below at the same time. It holds steady heat, airflow, and humidity so more chicks hatch strong. Great for hatcheries, small farms, and homesteads that want regular, repeat hatches with less work.

Big capacity (by breed)

Set (upper racks) / Hatch (lower baskets):

  • Quail: 2,496 set / 832 hatch

  • Partridge: 1,848 set / 616 hatch

  • Pheasant: 1,296 set / 432 hatch

  • Chicken: 960 set / 320 hatch

  • Turkey: 756 set / 252 hatch

  • Duck: 756 set / 252 hatch

  • Goose* and Peafowl*: recommended to use separate setter and hatcher for best results

Benefit: steady weekly output across many breeds, not just one big hatch day.

Why you’ll love it

  • Higher hatch rates: steady humidity, even air, and gentle turning help chicks develop and hatch well.

  • Set & hatch together: keep new sets moving while the last batch finishes below.

  • Less work: automatic turning and smart alarms handle the routine.

  • Easy to clean: front and back access saves time.

How the dual-stage flow works

  1. Set eggs on the 12 setter trays up top.

  2. Every few days, move eggs down as they near hatch.

  3. Hatch in the 4 baskets at the bottom while new sets start above.

Simple features (and benefits)

  • Humidity stays on target: add water to the top tank (bottom pan if needed); the incubator holds your set level.
    Eggs don’t dry out; chicks develop evenly.

  • Even, gentle airflow (AirRoute™ IP55): fan spreads warm air to every shelf and helps block dust and dampness.
    Stable temps cabinet-wide.

  • Quiet egg turning (TurnX™): trays tilt about 45° each way with low vibration.
    Better growth, better hatch rates.

  • Natural cool-downs (APC): short cooling periods copy a bird leaving the nest.
    Helpful for waterfowl like ducks.

  • Smart control panel (DiGiFEEL™): clear display shows cabinet and room conditions;
    Alarms warn for high/low temp and humidity so you can fix issues fast.

  • Insulated cabinet: holds conditions steady and helps manage energy use.

Trays & options

  • Comes standard with 12 chicken egg setter trays (TR80).

  • Want other eggs? Ask to swap to breed-specific trays, or choose Flexy setter trays (FLX80-ST) with adjustable dividers.

  • Want to hatch on the setter racks for larger bottom-line output? Add Setter Tray Covers (FLX80-C).

Setup & specs

  • Placement: indoors, draft-free, temperature-controlled room; avoid direct sun

  • Power: 110 V / 60 Hz | Average: ~425 W | Max: 1200 W

  • Size/Weight: 32.8” W × 52.7” D × 72.2” H, ~254 lb

  • Assembly: minimal—attach top water tank and side humidity device

Bottom line: With the T1280C, you can load, move, and hatch—all in one cabinet—so you get more chicks, more often across quail, chickens, turkeys, ducks, and more with less hassle.
