Product Name Manual Dead Pig Cart
Product Image manual dead pig cart for commercial swine farms
Product Overview The Manual Dead Pig Cart is a practical carcass handling and transport solution developed for commercial pig farms, breeding units and integrated livestock projects. It combines a rigid steel-tube chassis, open support frame, manual winch, steel wire rope, carcass hook and mobile wheel system to assist operators with loading and moving pig mortalities through barn aisles and farm service routes.

The equipment is designed for situations where a compact, non-powered carcass cart is preferred. Manual winch assistance reduces the physical effort required to pull a carcass onto the frame, while corrosion-resistant structural materials support repeated use in humid and aggressive livestock-house environments. Comparable commercial products commonly use galvanized or stainless structural frames, manual winches and pneumatic tires for carcass handling. :contentReference[oaicite:0]{index=0}

Frame dimensions, carrying capacity, wheel configuration and surface treatment can be adapted according to pig size, aisle width, floor conditions and project requirements.
Key Features
  • Manual Winch Loading: Mechanical winch assistance helps pull heavy pig carcasses onto the transport frame with reduced operator effort.
  • Corrosion-Resistant Steel Structure: Hot-dip galvanized steel or other corrosion-resistant structural finishes are available for demanding livestock environments.
  • Open Tubular Frame: Welded steel-tube construction provides a strong load-supporting structure while allowing convenient washing and disinfection.
  • Heavy-Duty Wire Rope and Hook: Steel wire rope and reinforced attachment hardware provide controlled carcass pulling during loading.
  • Farm-Suitable Mobility: Large rubber or pneumatic wheels improve movement over concrete floors, service passages and typical pig farm surfaces.
  • Compact Manual Operation: No battery, motor or external electrical supply is required.
  • Easy Cleaning: The relatively open structure reduces areas where manure and organic material can accumulate.
  • Project Customization: Dimensions, frame layout, tires, winch arrangement and load rating can be designed according to project requirements.
  • Commercial Farm Application: Suitable for routine mortality handling in breeding, farrowing and grow-finish production systems.
Structural Components
  • Main Steel Frame: Welded tubular chassis forming the primary load-bearing structure.
  • Carcass Support Rails: Longitudinal and transverse steel members support the animal during transport.
  • Manual Hand Winch: Provides mechanical pulling force for carcass loading.
  • Steel Wire Rope: Connects the winch to the carcass attachment point.
  • Carcass Hook: Heavy-duty hook for connection according to farm operating procedures.
  • Main Wheels: Rubber, pneumatic or alternative farm-duty wheel configurations available upon request.
  • Steering / Support Wheel: Depending on configuration, an auxiliary wheel may improve balance and maneuverability.
  • Operating Handles: Provide manual steering, lifting and positioning control.
  • Axle and Reinforcement Members: Support the wheel assembly and distribute transport loads through the chassis.
Hot-dip galvanized steel pipe, manual winch systems, steel wire rope and rubber wheels are common features in comparable manual carcass carts. :contentReference[oaicite:1]{index=1}
Working Principle / Structural Principle The cart is positioned close to the pig carcass with the loading end oriented toward the animal. The operator extends the steel wire rope, connects the hook according to the farm's approved carcass-handling procedure and rotates the manual winch to pull the carcass toward and onto the tubular support frame.

During loading, the wheel-and-frame geometry helps transfer the carcass weight to the chassis and axle instead of relying entirely on manual lifting. Once the carcass is correctly positioned and secured, the cart can be pushed or pulled along the designated mortality transport route.

Similar livestock carcass carts use manual winches and wheel-supported frames to reduce manual lifting requirements during loading and transportation. :contentReference[oaicite:2]{index=2}
