Product Name ANGLED GALVANIZED CATTLE FEED TROUGH
Product Image Angled Galvanized Cattle Feed Trough
Product Overview The Angled Galvanized Cattle Feed Trough is designed for installation in front of cattle feeding barriers and feed fronts. Its sloped trough profile improves animal access to the ration while helping create an organized and practical feeding line in commercial cattle housing.

Manufactured from hot-dip galvanized steel sheet and supported by height-adjustable legs, the trough can be adapted to different animal groups and barn layouts. Multiple standard lengths from 2 m to 6 m make it suitable for dairy cattle, beef cattle, suckler cows, bulls and growing stock.
Key Features
  • Angled Feeding Profile: Sloped geometry helps cattle reach feed comfortably from the feeding front.
  • Hot-Dip Galvanized Steel: Provides durable corrosion protection for demanding livestock-house environments.
  • 2 mm Steel Construction: The reference design uses robust 2 mm sheet metal for structural strength and repeated daily use.
  • Height-Adjustable Legs: Front and rear support heights can be adjusted to suit cattle size and feeding-line requirements.
  • Multiple Length Options: Standard configurations range from 2 m to 6 m for different barn capacities.
  • Large Feed Capacity: Available volumes range from approximately 448 L to 1344 L depending on trough length.
  • Suitable for Feed Fronts: Designed for placement directly in front of cattle feed barriers and feeding rails.
  • Kit-Form Delivery: Modular delivery simplifies transportation and on-site installation.
  • Stable Multi-Leg Support: Longer models use additional support legs to maintain structural stability along the feeding line.
  • Customizable: Dimensions, feeding height, reinforcement and surface protection can be adapted according to project requirements.
Structural Components
  • Angled Feed Pan: Sloped galvanized steel body provides accessible feed presentation along the cattle feeding front.
  • High Rear Wall: Helps retain feed and supports installation against or near the feed barrier.
  • Lower Front Feeding Edge: Provides convenient access for cattle while helping reduce unnecessary reaching.
  • End Panels: Close both ends of the trough and reinforce the complete structure.
  • Height-Adjustable Legs: Allow adjustment of front and rear trough height during installation.
  • Foot Plates: Provide stable contact with the barn floor or feeding area.
  • Structural Reinforcement: Longer troughs use additional support points to control deflection and maintain alignment.
Structural Principle The trough is installed along the cattle feeding front with the higher rear wall positioned away from the animals and the lower feeding edge facing the cattle. This angled profile directs feed toward the accessible feeding area while helping retain material inside the trough.

Adjustable front and rear legs allow the installer to set the feeding height and trough angle according to cattle size, feed type and barn layout. Multiple support legs distribute feed weight along the trough and provide stable load transfer to the floor.

  • Adjust front and rear support legs to achieve the required feeding height and trough angle.
  • Ensure all support feet make stable contact with the floor before adding feed.
  • Use the appropriate number of supports for the selected trough length.
  • Remove stale feed and accumulated debris regularly to maintain feeding hygiene.
  • Inspect support legs, adjustment bolts, welds and trough panels periodically.
  • Repair damaged galvanized surfaces promptly to minimize localized corrosion.
  • For prolonged contact with aggressive feeds such as silage, apply a suitable protective coating to the internal surfaces.
  • Clean and dry the trough before extended periods of storage or non-use.
Product FAQ

Q: Why does the trough use an angled design?
A: The sloped profile improves feed accessibility from the cattle side while helping keep feed contained toward the feeding area.

Q: What standard lengths are available?
A: Reference configurations are available in 2.0, 2.5, 4.0, 4.5, 5.0 and 6.0 m lengths.

Q: What is the capacity of the 2 m model?
A: The reference 2 m configuration has a capacity of approximately 448 L.

Q: Can the feeding height be adjusted?
A: Yes. The reference design uses height-adjustable legs, with different adjustment ranges at the front and rear.

Q: Where is the trough normally installed?
A: It is designed primarily for installation directly in front of cattle feeding fronts or feed barriers.

Q: Is the trough supplied fully assembled?
A: The reference product is supplied in kit form to simplify transportation and on-site handling.

Q: Can it be used for silage?
A: Yes, but prolonged contact with aggressive silage can affect galvanized surfaces. A suitable protective coating is recommended.
