Smart Feeder KOMBI
Fully automatic concentrates
and roughage feeding
The Mullerup
Smart Feeder KOMBI
Feeders can relieve you of most of the feeding work in the tied-up cow
house. Fully automatic and exact dosing of individual rations of
concentrates and roughage and automatic individual feeding of each cow
is the concept behind Smart
Feeder KOMBI that also manages the process
of stepping up and down concentrates, electronic identification of the
cows in the period of turning out to pasture and even takes into account
the variable dry matter content of the feed.
Smart Feeder KOMBI is
a battery-driven, automotive and rail-mounted feeder with a capacity of
2.0 m3.
The filling of up to
5 different concentrate types and 1 roughage type from auger or mixer or
a hopper is effected by an impulse from the feeder when it is in filling
position. The feeder's feed tanks can also be filled in its home
position and along its route in the cow house - fully automatically, of
course.
Individual feeding
The enormous flexibility in
Smart Feeder KOMBI ensures that the cows are fed individually acccording
to their needs. Simply enter how many kilo per day each cow is to be fed
and at what hours and then Smart Feeder will carry out the feeding work
automatically, no matter what time it is.
Smart Feeder
weighs-out the exact amount of concentrates and roughage to be dispensed
to each cow. It is possible to choose between the feeder dispensing on
only one side or on both sides before moving along the row. If too much
or too little feed is weighed-out in one place, the computer will
register this and correct for it at the next feeding at the same place.
A flexible tank system
The Smart Feeder KOMBI feeders
are
modular-built which ensures the flexibility to fit the feeder to the
individual farm now and later in case of changes in the farm. The
three basic models have a flexible tank system, making it possible to
fit small tanks for e.g. minerals.
The feeders are also
available with special tanks, e.g. molasses equipment consisting of a
tank, pressure-controlled drip-free jets and a pump for dosing liquid
molasses.
Steady stepping-up
It is crucial that stepping up and
down of concentrates is carried out with small quantities over a longer
period. That is why Smart Feeder
PLUS has a built-in stepping up
and down program. The required quantity
and period are entered into the computer and then the feeder manages
the stepping up and down process.
Identification
By means of electronic identification
equipment for the cows, Smart
Feeder KOMBI also manages the feeding work in
the period of turning out to pasture where the cows do not have fixed
places in the cow house.
Save time and energy
Instead of lifting several
hundred tonnes of concentrates and roughage during the year it is with
Smart Feeder
KOMBI only necessary to fill the hoppers in question. After filling the
hoppers only feeding the young calves and milking the cows need to be
done. Automatic filling and dispensing result in minimum feeding
work. |
