A New Way to Feed Animals
The CattlePro automated cattle feed mixer is equipped with unique features that will help ease your entire animal feed process. A heavy-duty scale allows you to accurately weigh dry micro additives as well as a separate scale for liquid measurements. These scales will help increase the speed and accuracy with which you produce your feed.
The system also contains a flush hopper, or large sink-like device, that offers a complete cleanout of the system and the conveyor. This allows for the safe production of clean, uncontaminated animal feed.
The CattlePro system was specifically tailored to the beef industry’s unique needs, and it is also pre-wired and pre-plumbed to make placement and installation easier than ever.
The tight, fully enclosed system and pumping process eliminates wasteful overspray and uses less water and liquids than similar equipment systems. Again, these features help to reduce waste and save money, since they are easier to clean and maintain.
How Does the CattlePro Cattle Feed Mixer Work?
The CattlePro cattle feed mixer is the result of our engineers’ 20 years of experience in the feed industry and automated equipment. This automated cattle feed machine is designed to make cattle feed mixing easier, faster, and more precise. Feedlot operators seeking quick and effective feed mixing solutions without being tied to a single supplier enjoy the CattlePro for its easy use, precision, and clean operation. The CattlePro feed mixer is relatively simple in its construction, but highly effective in its operation.
The CattlePro is designed with coordinated dry and liquid ingredient bins. The controller operates the flow of each bin. Liquid and dry scales measure the flow of each ingredient to ensure the right amount of each gets added to the mix. A mixer blends the ingredients together to ensure the feed is cohesively mixed. These bins, weighing instruments and mixers are suitable for macro ingredients, as well as microingredients and even trace minerals, vitamins, antibiotics and more.
How is the CattlePro Liquid & Dry Microingredient System different?
The CattlePro cattle feed machine system is designed for the safety of both animals and operators. It is accepted by and compliant with government regulations. Ingredients contain a confirmation bar code to assure correct location delivery, and tracking capabilities help to identify the ingredients’ arrival as well as usage dates.
The CattlePro cattle feed mixer recognizes these barcodes and helps to organize ingredient use and tracking. Every time the CattlePro System produces feed, the transaction is stamped with a time and date. This allows you to maintain a detailed report and tracking system of how much feed you produce and the production statistics of your feed. The system also provides quality control and inventory assessment by monitoring expiration dates through first-in first-out usage. This significantly cuts waste and helps save money by eliminating unused or misused product.
