Jansen Poultry Equipment's new mechanical litter removal system Jansen Poultry Equipment

Mar. 8, 2012 – Many poultry farmers, most of them with free range or aviary houses, would like to reduce the litter level and improve its quality in their houses.

Solution

Jansen Poultry has found a solution and developed a mechanical Litter Removal System.

When using this system:

  • Litter level in the house can be kept in check
  • Litter is mechanically removed
  • Dust and ammonia levels are considerably reduced

How does the system work?

In the walkways of the house, a revolving steel cable with a scraper attached every ± 4m is installed. The back-and-forth movements of the scrapers move the litter to the back of the house.

During the cleaning of the house, the cable with scrapers can be removed so the system does not interfere with the cleaning process.
