Even
distribution of all types of feed is a huge advantage
of this feeder. Hanging near the bunk roof
is a big benefit in keeping the feeder out of the
weather. It also eliminates the problem of
legs rusting off due to contact with the silage.
Notice the lack of obstructions in the lower bunk
area.
Installation
is quick and easy. Support brackets can
hang from either cross supports in a bunk, second
story floor joists or the ceiling in a barn.
Rails are then attached to the support brackets
with a clamp by just tightening a set screw.
The drive unit and tray sections come pre-assembled
from the factory, thus reducing valuable time!
Because who has time to waste these days?
A
drawback to center fill feeders is the portion
of belt or chain that does not drop feed.
We have solved the problem with the dead spot
feed plow. No more moldy feed sitting on
the belt waiting to fall into the bunk and making
your animals sick.
The
16" wide belt has the capacity to haul feed away
from almost any set-up, from total ration mixers
to combined unloaders running at the same time.
Saves you time and money by reducing feeding time.
Quiet,
easy-rolling UHMW (plastic) wheels carry the feeder
tray smoothly along the 2" x 2" angle ion rails.
2050 roller chain is used to pull the tray back
and forth. A 3/4" rod protects the chain
from being accidentally knocked off the support
hooks by curious cattle. |
