The main feature of transmission line feeding is a lack of return flow. The feed remains in the pipe during the idle period and is not recirculated. Overall, transmission line feeding is very easy to operate with the right size and appropriate planning of the pen. Various pipe rinsing methods meet the essential hygiene standards.

All of these advantages combined makes transmission line feeding an attractive option for farmers seeking a cost-effective, flexible and easy-to-use feeding solution – especially when sucklings do not have to be reared permanently in large herds.

In conclusion

Transmission line feeding is an efficient and flexible solution for feeding livestock. Its defining feature – the lack of return flow – makes the system simple and practical to use. There are many advantages of this method: It is cost-efficient as it reduces installation and operation costs and requires very little maintenance. It also enables precise feed dosing to prevent overfeeding and waste. The flexibility of transmission line feeding allows farmers to customise the system to the specific needs of their farm, whether it be big or small. The option of pipe rinsing ensures a high level of hygiene, which in turn is key to the health of the animals and the quality of the end product. Overall, transmission line feeding is an attractive option for farmers seeking a simple, cost-effective and easy-to-use feeding solution, especially when different groups of animals need to be fed individually.

• Cost effectiveness: Transmission line feeding is a cost-effective solution for feeding livestock. Its simple structure and the avoidance of complex return flow systems results in lower installation and operation costs.
• Low-maintenance: Thanks to their simplified nature, transmission line feeding systems require minimal maintenance. This saves time and resources as fewer regular inspections and maintenance jobs are required.
• Flexibility: The flexibility of transmission line feeding allows farmers to customise the system to the specific needs of their farm. It can be used both on small farms and large facilities with many feeding stations.

• Precise dosing: The use of a TEWE feeding computer for dosing ensures precise feeding. This helps optimise feed consumption and overfeeding while preventing feed waste.
• Hygiene: Transmission line feeding enables a high level of hygiene thanks to the various pipe rinsing options it offers. This is essential for the health and wellbeing of the animals as well as the quality of the end product.
• Easy to handle: Transmission line feeding is easy to operate and does not require extensive training of the operating staff. This makes the system easier to integrate into farms and aids efficiency.
