Cage Equipment for Laying Hens Housing (Start)

详情

TEXHA’s Cage Equipment for Laying Hens Housing provides:

1. Best conditions for laying hens housing
The minimal using of plastic elements contributes into hygienic conditions and enables washing
with hot water under the pressure
The protective galvanized shield protects eggs from pecking
Cell of the floor mesh has the optimal size
The side partitions are made from galvanized steel. It improves the air conditioning and
contributes into healthy microclimate in the cage
The incline of the floor enables free rolling down of eggs and reduces the incisions while their
rolling down

2. Exploitation period
The cage equipment is made of high-quality steel covered with first class zinc. The thickness of
zinc covering is up from **8 g/sq m
Construction of equipment enables easy carrying of birds in cage and softens the energy of eggs
rolling down
The driving gears have steel file-hard sprockets
Equipment includes galvanized fastening details with spring washers

3. Low exploitation expenses
Using of energy-saving technologies. The fixed power of electric equipment of each
battery is 0.*5 kW.
The density of birds housing enables not using of regular heating during cold season

Feed ing System
The prime cost of egg production includes the cost of the feed. Economical results depend on the preciseness and effectiveness of
the feeding system. TEXHA provides their Cage START with feeding system, which has hopper feed distribution.
This kind of feeding system includes two collapsible hoppers, which consist of separate open
galvanized hoppers, which are located at each tier of the batter.
Feeding System Advantages
- The galvanized feeding tray significantly contributes into hardness of the battery
- The bent inwards feeders side prevents feed loss
- The feed distribution is done through all tiers of
the battery in the even and fast way
- The feeding tray construction prevents appearing
of stagnant zones
- No feed fractionating by size through the
battery
- Fast and comfortable regulation of a certain
hopper on a certain tier

Drinking System
Drinking system is one of the most important systems in life support of birds. TEXHA provides their Cage Equipment START with
simple, reliable, and effective drinking system.
Drinking System Components
- Water distribution system which enables
pressure control in the drinking system. The
drinking system is equipped with tanks with
float valves. It can be equipped with pressure
controllers if needed.
- Drinking lines. Each cage is equipped with
3 nipple drinking bowls with V-shaped dropcatcher
installed under the drinking bowls.
The nipple drinking bowls are installed in the pipe *2x*2 mm by means of special equipment,
what provides the high-qualitative installation and prevents water leak in the joining areas. Nonusing
of glue contributes into high water quality. The pipes are joined by means of coupling and yoke.

Manure Evacuation System
The manure evacuation system in TEXHA’s Cage Equipment START enables fast and qualitative manure removing. The system’s drive
is powerful, simple, reliable, and durable.
The longitudinal manure evacuation belts from solid polypropylene are installed on each tier. They provide fast and qualitative
manure evacuation. The belts are cleaned by scrapers made from wear-resistant material. Manure removal is done by electric motor
from all tiers simultaneously.
The air humidity while manure evacuation is up to *5 %. Timely manure evacuation and right manure consistence don’t let the
excessive ammonia and water evaporation. It contributes into favorable climate in the poultry house.
The size of spacing between manure evacuation belt and floor of cage equipment has been doubled. It allows to clean the poultry
house less often. Turning on the manure evacuation belt at each tier contributes into resource saving.

ADDITIONAL OPTIONS

Feeding System
- Silo for outdoor feed storage
- Steel spiral transporter for diametrical feed loading into the hopper. It has an automatic turn
off system with non-contact capacitive sensor
- Feed dosing machine, which enables even distribution of feed through all or separate tiers of
the battery as provided by current standards
- Feed dosing machine or brush for leveling and stirring of feed through the feeding tray
- Rope feed distribution drive with motor-reducer
- The extensional dosing system, which provides high accuracy of feed distribution
- Hopper with grooved shiny surface, which does not allow feed overheating
- The system of logical feed distribution regulation from silo to feeding tray does not need the
participation of poultry house staff

Drinking System
- Water treatment unit, which includes water meter, medicator, filter for mechanical
water cleaning, manometers, stop valves
- Water distribution system which enables pressure control in the drinking
system
- Drinking lines

Manure Evacuation System
- Diametrical transporter
- Inclined transporter. It is used for manure evacuation from poultry house and loading onto the vehicle. The inclined transporter
may be covered with galvanized shield, if it is cold climate zone.

Egg Gathering System
The egg gathering system of TEXHA’s Cage Equipment START provides labor reducing while egg gathering and sorting, meeting of
biological safety requirements, poultry stress reducing. Either lift or elevator egg gathering system may be used in START.
Components of Lift Egg Gathering System:
- Longitudinal belt transporter
- Diametrical transporter with lift mechanism
- Inclined egg gathering transporter and roll-table
The elevator egg gathering system includes universal elevator for egg
gathering and laying onto egg transporting system. One elevator is
installed at each battery. It can be included into general line of eggs
transporting.
