Heat is one of the component that every living organisms need to survive. However, as world have been suffering from global warming, circumstances wherein heat are not provided is common. This is the main reason why scientists and experts were so eager to create an apparatus that could emit the warmth that an organism needs and that equipment is a cage incubator.

An egg will not be able to hatch and develop without warmth. A human being needs to get vitamin D from direct sunlight and plants will not be able to go into photosynthesis stage without sunlight. This are just few things that makes heat pretty much important in every day living.

Incubator which originally provide warm are created and designed with various usage. In medical area, this technology serves as support for developing infants so they can adapt and fully develop. Even those who are delivered healthy are still being placed inside such area so they get the heat their tiny body needs to be healthy.

Incubators are also used as a business equipment. Eggs that are taken away from their mother hens and has to be heated in some point just like a normal hen does to it where they can be useful. The warmth the machine would radiate is actually somehow closer to the temperature the mother hen does have.

The cage incubators are often seen in laboratories as well where the specimens that being studied are placed and stored. Since it is obvious that incubators are useful to so many fields, it would only be normal for such apparatus to be modified in means where it is improvised in so many ways. Because of that new features are released every time modification or customization is done.

Apparently, this tools are usually used so that the temperature inside the cage is either maintained or manipulated. This happens when the air blows inside the enclosure as they get recycled through the air diffusers. Since, this is an endless cycle, there is possibility that bacterias can build up so to prevent it from getting inside the enclosure, there are optional filter box that may be attach to the heater.

One feature of modern incubators nowadays is that it can be controlled through a touch screen interface. In the screen is the information about the temperature, humidity and gas flow rate inside the cage. Aside from those information, it can be possibly and hovered the way it has to be set. Though this can also depend on the type of incubator being used.

Stage top incubators are those that are usually the standard types. This are holding a multiwell plate through some magnetic insert. Its heating means are through a heater that is located in base of its stage insert as well as in its sliding glass lid. It also have this optional heater for oil objective.

The other that is considered to be well designed are cage types. This has removable panels for convenience when using microscope. It even has the lights inside that can only be controlled through a footy pedal so that the checking of enclosures are done even without opening its chambers.
