Dry feeding – you should know
Proven, precise and long-lasting
Dry feed is the most commonly used form of feed for livestock around the world. Over the past four decades, TEWE has implemented many best-practice solutions in this area for feeding of sows, piglets, fattening pigs, fish and insects around the world.
Depending on the animal and the individual requirements, the feed is mixed in dry form and supplied to the animals at the desired time in the required quantity.
All of the technology for the system is conceptualised by TEWE and tried and tested in practice by many different customers. Well-developed, innovative technology ensures seamless operation: In addition to the TEWE feeding computer, batch mixers, weighing technology, feed machines, deflection corners and valves ensure precise, automatic dispensing of pre-calculated feed batches at the trough. The decisive products of the TEWE dry feeding solution have been self-developed to fulfil current requirements in terms of dosing accuracy and feed hygiene to an above-average standard. The feeding computer offers an individual solution program for every requirement. The animals can be fed to an optimal level using sensors installed in the automatic feeders. This prevents overfeeding and feed waste, and stops the automatic feeders overflowing.
System solutions:
- ad libitum feeding (preferred for piglets and fattening pigs)
- computer-controlled batch feeding
- multi-variety feeding
- integration of additive dosing systems
All of our dry feeding solutions can be combined with any TEWE product solution.
