Free Stall Feeder

The rail-mounted Feed Stall Feeder provides herds with a finely measured amount of feed from a stationary mixer or a silage bunker – reliably and round the clock. This results in time and labour savings every day.

The space saving system also reduces the costs for any extension to the cow barn and can be upgraded to a larger system when required. 

Set up an independent feed supply system in the free stall barn

The Free Stall Feeder weighs-in TMR from a stationary mixer and gives each cow group the exact weight of feed they need!  The Free Stall Feeder then distributes its contents onto the feed alley in a programmed cycle thanks to its feed conveyor on the left or right hand side.

Which group receives its TMR ration, at what time, how much and how often, is controlled by the farmer via the farm computer!

The benefits of the Free Stall Feeder and the feeding system using TMR strategies are:

• The volume of TMR can be divided among the cow groups and adjusted depending on the current performance, while selective feed intake can be avoided.
• Multiple dispensing results in a relaxed atmosphere, minimises feed loss and prevents over-feeding.
• Having healthy cows makes the automatic feeding system worthwhile by rewarding farmers with litre upon litre of top-quality milk!

Choose the correct volume to match the herd size

The Free Stall Feeder is available in three sizes with volumes that provide the ideal basis for the farm, herd and future plans.

Farmers can choose from the following models:

• M1600
• M2000
• M3000
