| Product Overview | The Sow and Piglet Farrowing Drinking Bowl is designed to provide an accessible drinking point for lactating sows while also helping young piglets locate fresh water during the farrowing period. The formed one-piece stainless steel basin has a smooth rounded profile without welded seams or sharp internal corners. When combined with a suitable trigger nipple and stainless steel water pipe, the system provides controlled on-demand water while helping keep the farrowing pen drier. |

| Working Principle / Structural Principle | Water is supplied through the stainless steel pipe to a trigger nipple positioned above or inside the bowl. When the sow or piglet activates the nipple, water flows into the basin. The rounded bowl retains accessible drinking water around the drinking point. When the nipple is released, water flow stops automatically, helping reduce unnecessary water discharge and maintain a drier farrowing environment. |

| Product FAQ | Q: Can both the sow and piglets use this drinking bowl? A: Yes. The farrowing-bowl design provides water access for lactating sows while the retained water also helps young piglets locate the drinking point. Q: Why use a drinking bowl instead of only an exposed nipple? A: The basin captures water released by the nipple, helping reduce spray and runoff while keeping water accessible to young piglets. Q: Is the bowl welded? A: The reference AquaBowl design is formed as a one-piece stainless steel basin without welded seams in the bowl. Q: How is the bowl installed? A: A wide flange with pre-punched slots allows the bowl to be fastened directly to compatible farrowing flooring. Q: Can a complete nipple and pipe assembly be supplied? A: Yes. Stainless steel water pipe, trigger nipple, connectors and floor fasteners can be supplied according to project requirements. Q: Can the drinking system be customized for different farrowing pens? A: Yes. Bowl configuration, pipe length, nipple selection and mounting hardware can be adapted to the farrowing-pen layout and water system. |
