Feed Cart and Piglet Mover

The Feed Cart and Piglet Mover is a dual-purpose livestock cart designed for both bulk feed transport and movement of small pigs inside commercial swine facilities. Its flat internal floor provides a practical platform for piglet handling while the deep polyethylene body also offers substantial capacity for dry feed and other compatible farm materials.

A raised floor reduces excessive bending during pig handling, while the corrosion-resistant double-floor construction, rounded upper edges and maneuverable wheel system make the cart suitable for intensive daily use in nursery, farrowing and production barns.

• Dual-Purpose Design: Suitable for transporting feed and moving small pigs with one piece of equipment.
• Flat Internal Floor: Provides a stable surface for piglet transportation and processing tasks.
• Raised Working Height: Helps reduce repeated bending when loading or unloading piglets.
• Heavy-Duty Polyethylene Tub: Resists moisture, corrosion and many common farm chemicals.
• Double-Floor Undercarriage: Reinforces the tub while protecting the lower structure from corrosion.
• Rolled Tub Edges: Provide a smoother animal-contact and operator-contact surface.
• Drain Outlet: Simplifies washing, flushing and removal of residual water.
• High Maneuverability: Fixed wheels and swivel casters allow convenient movement through livestock-house aisles.

• Polyethylene Tub: Large-capacity molded body for feed or small-pig transport.
• Flat Raised Floor: Supports piglets and improves operator working height.
• Double-Floor Base: Functions as a corrosion-resistant structural undercarriage.
• Rolled Upper Rim: Strengthens the tub and provides smoother edges.
• Drain Plug: Allows water to be released after washing or sanitation.
• Push Handle: Provides manual steering and cart control.
• Wheel Assembly: Fixed and swivel wheels provide stability and turning ability.

Feed Transport: Dry feed or compatible farm materials are loaded into the tub and manually transported from the feed room or storage area to individual barns or pens.

Piglet Transport: The flat internal floor allows small pigs to be placed inside the cart for movement between farrowing, nursery, processing or transfer areas.

The operator controls the cart using the handle while swivel casters assist turning. After use, the tub can be washed and residual water removed through the drain outlet.

Operation:

• Check aisle width, door openings and floor condition before use.
• Distribute loads evenly across the flat floor.
• Do not exceed the rated load capacity.
• Move the cart slowly when transporting piglets, especially at corners, slopes and thresholds.
• Use suitable animal-handling procedures when loading and unloading pigs.

Maintenance:

• Remove residual feed and organic material after use.
• Wash and disinfect the tub between piglet groups.
• Open the drain plug after washing to remove standing water.
• Inspect wheels, casters, axles and handle fasteners periodically.
• Keep wheel assemblies free from string, hair and feed debris.
• Replace excessively worn wheels or damaged structural components before further use.

Q1: Can the same cart be used for both feed and piglets?

Yes. The flat-floor polyethylene design is intended for dual-purpose use. Proper cleaning and biosecurity procedures should be followed between different applications.

Q2: What is the reference load capacity?

The reference large model is rated for approximately 360 lb or 163 kg.

Q3: What is the reference capacity?

The reference configuration provides approximately 9 cubic feet of internal capacity.

Q4: Why is the internal floor flat?

A flat floor provides a more stable surface for small pigs while also allowing convenient transport of feed and farm supplies.

Q5: Why does the cart use a raised floor?

The raised floor reduces the distance operators need to bend when handling piglets or materials.

Q6: Is the polyethylene body corrosion resistant?

Yes. Molded polyethylene does not rust and is suitable for wet livestock-house environments and routine washing.

Q7: Is a narrow-aisle version available?

Yes. Different cart widths and capacities can be selected according to barn aisle dimensions and project requirements.

Q8: What information is required for a quotation?

Please provide the required quantity, expected load, aisle width, doorway dimensions, primary use, preferred capacity, wheel configuration and project location.
