Product Overview The Galvanized Steel Cattle Bunk Feeder is a durable feeding solution for beef cattle, dairy cattle, growing stock and feedlot operations. Its long trough design provides convenient access to grain, concentrate, chopped forage, suitable TMR rations and other cattle feeds.

The feeder combines a formed steel trough with a reinforced supporting frame and corrosion-resistant galvanized finish. Length, trough depth, feeding height, support structure and optional feeding barriers can be configured according to herd size, cattle age and farm layout.
Key Features
  • Galvanized Steel Construction: Provides reliable corrosion resistance for cattle barns, feedlots, pasture feeding areas and other agricultural environments.
  • Reinforced Trough Body: Formed steel panels and structural supports provide strength for repeated commercial farm use.
  • Large Feeding Area: Long bunk configuration allows multiple cattle to access feed simultaneously and helps reduce competition during feeding.
  • Animal-Friendly Edges: Smooth formed or rolled edges can be used to reduce sharp contact points and help minimize feed accumulation along the trough rim.
  • Stable Support Frame: Skid-type legs, fixed legs or height-adjustable supports can be configured according to installation conditions.
  • Flexible Feed Compatibility: Suitable for grain, concentrate, dry feed, chopped forage and compatible mixed rations.
  • End-to-End Installation: Multiple trough sections can be arranged in a continuous feeding line when required by the cattle-house layout.
  • Easy Cleaning: Open trough construction provides convenient access for removing residual feed and routine washing.
  • Project Customization: Dimensions, feeding height, steel thickness, supporting frame and accessories are available according to project requirements.
Structural Components
  • Feed Trough: Formed galvanized steel feeding body with a deep profile for convenient feed containment.
  • Reinforced Frame: Structural steel tubing or formed steel sections support the trough and resist routine livestock loading.
  • Cross Bracing: Reinforcement members help maintain trough shape and structural stability along longer feeder sections.
  • Support Legs or Skids: Fixed, rounded skid-type or adjustable support designs are available according to farm requirements.
  • End Panels: Reinforced end sections improve rigidity and help contain feed.
  • Optional Feed Barrier: Tubular feeding racks or partitions can be added when controlled feeding spaces are required.
Structural Principle Feed is distributed along the open bunk so that cattle can access the ration from one or both sides according to the feeder layout. The formed trough profile keeps feed concentrated within the feeding area while the supporting frame transfers the load to the floor or ground.

For commercial cattle farms, several feeder sections can be positioned end-to-end to create a longer feeding line. Feeding height and trough geometry should be selected according to cattle size, housing layout and ration type.

Installation & Maintenance
  • Install the feeder on a firm and reasonably level concrete floor, compacted yard or suitable pasture surface.
  • Select the feeding height according to cattle age, body size and management system.
  • When several feeders are installed end-to-end, maintain proper alignment to provide a continuous feeding line.
  • Check that legs, skids and connecting components remain stable before cattle access the feeder.
  • Remove spoiled or accumulated feed regularly to maintain feed hygiene.
  • Inspect welds, trough panels, frames and optional feeding racks periodically for deformation or damage.
  • Clean the trough between feeding cycles when required by farm management procedures.
  • Highly acidic silage can accelerate corrosion of zinc-coated surfaces; suitable food-safe protective treatment may be specified for prolonged silage contact.
  • Repair damaged protective surfaces promptly to help maintain long-term corrosion resistance.
Product FAQ

Q: What cattle are suitable for this bunk feeder?
A: It can be configured for beef cattle, dairy cattle, growing stock and other cattle groups by adjusting the feeder dimensions and feeding height.

Q: Can the feeder dimensions be customized?
A: Yes. Length, width, depth, feeding height and structural specifications can be produced according to project requirements.

Q: Is hot-dip galvanizing available?
A: Yes. Hot-dip galvanized construction can be supplied according to the required corrosion-protection specification.

Q: Can several feeders be installed in one continuous line?
A: Yes. The trough sections can be configured for end-to-end installation to suit longer cattle pens and commercial feeding areas.

Q: Can a cattle feeding rack be added?
A: Yes. Tubular feed racks or feeding partitions can be supplied when controlled feeding positions are required.

Q: Is the feeder suitable for silage?
A: It can be configured for suitable forage and silage applications, but prolonged contact with acidic silage may require an additional protective coating to extend the service life of galvanized surfaces.

Q: Can it be used outdoors?
A: Yes. Galvanized steel construction is suitable for cattle yards, feedlots and pasture feeding areas when the feeder is installed and maintained correctly.

Q: What information is required for quotation?
A: Please provide cattle type, animal age or weight range, herd size, required feeder length, feed type, feeding layout and any preferred material or surface-treatment requirements.
