Product Overview The Double-Sided Automatic Nursery Pig Feeder is designed for ad-libitum feeding of weaned pigs in medium and large commercial nursery groups. The double configuration combines two feed hoppers with a centralized stainless steel feeding area, providing high feeding capacity while making efficient use of pen space.

Feed is released in small, controlled quantities through an adjustable dispensing mechanism. The system can handle common dry-feed forms such as pellets and meal, while separate water access allows pigs to drink without unnecessarily contaminating the dry feed.

The feeder can be integrated into a pen partition or installed as a free-standing feeding station with additional structural posts. Manual filling and automatic filling from centralized dry-feed lines are both available according to project requirements.
Key Features
  • Double-Hopper Configuration: Two feed containers provide increased capacity for larger nursery groups.
  • Precise Feed Dosing: Adjustable dispensing helps maintain fresh feed availability while reducing unnecessary feed waste.
  • Suitable for Different Feed Types: Reversible dispensing components can be configured for pellets or meal.
  • Feed and Water Separation: The trough layout keeps the central feeding area separated from drinking zones.
  • Stainless Steel Construction: Structural and trough components provide corrosion resistance and long service life.
  • Large Feeding Area: Designed for commercial nursery groups requiring high feeder capacity.
  • Automatic Filling Compatible: Hopper configuration can accommodate multiple automatic feed circuits.
  • Easy Cleaning: Smooth surfaces and water-resistant hopper construction simplify washing and sanitation.
  • Flexible Installation: Suitable for pen-partition installation or free-standing mounting with support posts.
Structural Components
  • Dual Feed Hoppers: Two high-volume containers store dry feed above the dispensing units.
  • Hopper Lids: Protect stored feed and allow convenient manual inspection and filling.
  • Dispensing Units: Meter small quantities of feed into the feeding area.
  • Reversible Dosing Plates: Can be configured according to pellet or meal feed characteristics.
  • Adjustment Handles: Allow farm staff to regulate or completely close feed discharge.
  • Stainless Steel Frame: Supports the complete feeder assembly and integrates with pig pen structures.
  • Stainless Steel Trough: Provides a durable and hygienic eating surface.
  • Water Supply Components: Stainless steel piping and drinking valves provide water access beside the feeding area.
  • Mounting Components: Brackets, bolts and optional floor-fixed posts complete the installation.
Working Principle Dry feed is stored in the two upper hoppers and moves by gravity toward the dispensing units. The adjustment mechanism determines the quantity of feed released during each activation.

Pig interaction with the dispensing area releases small portions of feed onto the central feeding plateau. This helps keep feed fresh and limits excessive accumulation in the trough.

The reversible dispensing plate can be selected or oriented according to feed characteristics. Water is supplied separately at both sides of the feeding area, allowing pigs convenient drinking access while maintaining separation between feed and water.

The hopper can be filled manually or connected to an automatic dry-feed transport system for centralized commercial farm operation.

Installation & Maintenance Installation:
  • Confirm feeder location, pig group size and pen-partition layout before installation.
  • Install floor-fixed end posts where the feeder forms part of the pen partition.
  • For free-standing installation, install structural support posts according to the approved layout.
  • Position and level the stainless steel feeder frame.
  • Install the dual hoppers and dispensing assemblies.
  • Connect automatic feed downpipes where centralized filling is required.
  • Connect the water supply and check all drinking valves for proper operation.
  • Set the initial feed adjustment according to pig size and feed type.
Maintenance:
  • Remove old or compacted feed from the dispensing area when required.
  • Wash and disinfect the trough and accessible hopper surfaces between production groups.
  • Inspect adjustment handles and dosing plates for free movement.
  • Check drinking valves and water connections for leakage or blockage.
  • Inspect frame connections, mounting brackets and floor-fixed posts periodically.
  • Adjust feed settings when pig size or feed characteristics change.
Project Cases Comparable automatic feeder systems have been used in commercial weaner facilities in Denmark, Japan and South Korea. Documented installations combine automatic feeders with modular pig penning, slatted flooring, heating systems and centralized dry-feed distribution.

For commercial projects, feeder quantity and placement can be coordinated with pen capacity, dry-feed circuits, drinking-water lines and overall pig-house construction drawings.
Product FAQ

Q: What pigs is this automatic feeder designed for?
A: The nursery configuration is primarily designed for weaned pigs, with referenced applications around 5-35 kg.

Q: What is the advantage of a double feeder?
A: The double configuration increases hopper capacity and feeding capacity, making it suitable for larger commercial pig groups.

Q: Can it handle both pellets and meal feed?
A: Yes. A reversible dosing plate can be configured according to different dry-feed characteristics.

Q: Is the feed flow adjustable?
A: Yes. The feeder provides multiple adjustment settings and can also be closed completely when required.

Q: What is the reference hopper capacity?
A: The referenced double configuration provides two 100-liter hoppers, for a total nominal volume of approximately 200 liters.

Q: Can it be connected to an automatic feeding system?
A: Yes. Compatible configurations can be filled automatically from centralized feed circuits.

Q: Can the feeder be installed independently inside a pen?
A: Yes. A free-standing arrangement can be created using suitable structural posts fixed securely to the floor.

Q: What information is required for quotation?
A: Recommended information includes pig weight range, pigs per pen, number of pens, feed type, automatic feed-line layout, water supply, pen dimensions and project quantity.
