Product Overview The 5-Calf Newborn Transport Box is a loader-handled livestock crate for moving young calves from the maternity barn to calf-rearing buildings or outdoor hutches. Its stainless steel enclosure has perforated side panels for visibility and airflow, a wide sliding access door and a base that can be specified for compatible lifting equipment. The reference capacity is up to five newborn calves, subject to animal size and the rated load of the supplied box.
Key Features
  • Group transport helps reduce repeated trips between farm buildings.
  • Wide sliding door supports loading and unloading near ground level.
  • Perforated sidewalls allow operators to observe calves during handling.
  • Stainless steel construction supports routine cleaning in dairy farm environments.
  • Loader or forklift interface can be selected for the farm's handling equipment.
  • Optional auxiliary container can carry calf-feeding supplies on the same trip.
Structural Components The box consists of a rigid stainless steel frame, perforated wall panels, sliding door, door-retaining hardware, load-bearing floor and lifting interface. A suitable rubber floor mat, drainage provisions and detachable supply container can be specified according to the required configuration.
Working Principle Place the box securely on level ground and open the sliding door. Guide calves into the enclosure, close and secure the door, then lift the box through its designated attachment points using compatible equipment. Travel slowly along the planned farm route. At the destination, set the box down securely or align it with the unloading area before opening the door.
