The partners for this community service activity are UMKM which are engaged in making salted eggs. one of the problems faced is in the process of washing salted eggs, which is a process that is carried out before being marketed, where the process still uses manual washing power using human power, manual washing requires less efficient time so that when there are orders, many UMKM experience problems. to fulfill orders from consumers. UMKM that operate in the egg business sector really need a touch of technology related to the salted egg washing method.
