Poultry Feeding System

Poultry feeding systems move feed automatically from outdoor storage silos to troughs or pans inside the house, making sure every bird gets consistent nutrition without the spillage and waste that comes with manual feeding. On a farm with 5,000 layers, daily feed distribution alone runs 500–600 kg—and hand-feeding that volume eats up over 25% of total labor hours. Shuilin Musen builds two main types: hopper trolley feeding carts for cage systems and pan feeding lines for floor-rearing setups, both delivering feed at up to 1,400 kg/hour.

Core specifications:

• Hopper trolley: 1.2mm hot-dip galvanized steel hoppers, travel speed 8.67 m/min, separate operation per row

• Pan feeding line: 14-window feed trays, 45–55 birds per pan, 6-level adjustable feed flow

• South African-imported auger (63mm main line, 36mm branch) handles feed transport up to 150 meters

• German IFM feed-level sensors trigger automatic motor start/stop—no overflow, no empty troughs

• V-shaped trough design prevents feed accumulation, mold growth, and bird beak injuries

FAQ: How much feed does an automatic system actually save?

Farms switching from manual to automated feeding typically cut feed waste by 15% or more. The precise delivery control stops spillage, and the level sensor means troughs never sit empty or overflow.
