 |
| Product Overview |
The Piglet Feed Trough for Nursery Piglets is a compact supplementary feeder designed for suckling piglets, recently weaned pigs and nursery groups. Its low feeding edge provides easy access to creep feed, pre-starter and starter rations during the critical transition to solid feed.
Round feeding bowls can be supplied in stainless steel, durable plastic or polymer-based materials. Depending on the model, the trough can be secured to compatible slatted flooring with a fixing hook or spring-loaded holder, helping prevent tipping and unnecessary feed loss.
Smooth surfaces, rounded internal geometry and removable mounting components simplify washing and disinfection, making the trough suitable for intensive farrowing and nursery facilities.

| Structural Components |
- Feed Bowl: Holds creep, pre-starter or nursery feed within easy reach of piglets.
- Rounded Feeding Rim: Provides a smooth animal-contact surface and helps retain feed.
- Central Mounting Post: Forms the main connection between the bowl and floor fixing system.
- Feed Guard: Optional radial guard limits piglets from standing inside the feed bowl.
- Fixing Hook: Secures compatible stainless steel bowls to livestock flooring.
- Spring-Loaded Holder: Allows quick mounting of selected round bowls in compatible cast iron slats.
- Mounting Bracket: Used with selected hanging or pen-mounted trough configurations.

| Structural Principle |
Feed is placed directly into the bowl, allowing several piglets to approach the circular feeding perimeter simultaneously. The low rim supports easy access for small pigs during creep feeding and the early nursery period.
The central fixing assembly locks the bowl to the flooring and limits movement when piglets push against the feeder. Guard structures can divide the feeding perimeter and help keep animals from stepping into the ration.
The mounting system can be released when the bowl needs to be emptied, washed, disinfected or moved to another pen.
