Representative chute configuration. Weighing components and final product appearance depend on the selected specification.

Product Overview The Manual Cattle Crush Weighing System combines a manually operated cattle handling chute with a load bar and digital indicator arrangement specified for the project. It allows an operator to hold one animal in the crush and record its weight during routine handling. The system can be incorporated into a cattle race, treatment area or livestock weighing station within a new or existing farm building.
Key Features
  • Manual head gate and rear gate operation for controlled, single-animal handling.
  • Steel frame designed for repeated use in livestock facilities.
  • Load bar mounting arrangement available for weighing directly beneath the crush.
  • Side access, floor surface and animal restraint options selected according to handling tasks.
  • Can be planned alongside cattle races, gates and steel structure building layouts.
Structural Components A typical configuration comprises a steel crush frame, head gate, rear entry gate, side panels or access gates, floor, manual operating mechanisms, load bar mounting points, compatible load bars, cables and a weighing indicator. A squeeze mechanism, EID reader and additional restraint accessories are available according to project requirements.
Working Principle An animal enters from the handling race. The operator closes the rear gate and secures the head gate, then uses any specified side restraint for the procedure. With the animal fully inside and the crush supported by the load bars, the indicator displays its weight. The operator records the reading and releases the animal through the front gate. The crush must remain clear of surrounding structures that could interfere with weighing.

Applications Suitable for cattle weight monitoring, growth assessment, selection, treatment and pre-sale handling. It can serve cattle farms, mixed livestock enterprises, agricultural project contractors and distributors supplying complete handling facilities. For commercial pig farms that also operate cattle units, the crush belongs in the dedicated cattle handling area.
Customization Options Options may include chute dimensions, gate arrangement, operator side, squeeze configuration, floor surface, corrosion protection, side access, indicator selection, EID integration and connections to existing handling lanes. Final compatibility of the crush, load bars and indicator should be confirmed as one system.
Installation & Maintenance Position the crush on a firm, level, well-drained base and install the load bars according to the selected weighing equipment instructions. Keep the entire crush weight on the load bars, protect cables from animals and machinery, and check that gates or adjacent fencing do not touch the weighing structure. After installation, zero and check the indicator with a suitable test weight. Routinely remove manure and debris from beneath the crush, inspect gates and latches, and keep electrical connections dry.
