Feed Bins and Feed Conveying System
1. Relieve the difficulty of recruiting and high labor cost in poultry farm;
2. Ensure ration feeding, avoiding uneven nutrition and bad growth of poultry which are often caused by manual feeding;
3. Reduce waste and improve poultry farming performance;
4. Beautify poultry farm while offering high durability;
5. Allow addition of drugs for healthcare and disease prevention;
6. Ease daily management;
7. Keep away from rats, flies and other things that have bad influence on the feeds;
8. Provide healthy and cost-saving poultry solution
Structure and Components
1. Feed Bin Wallboard
The feed bin or silo, a key part in our feed conveying system, is fabricated from 275g/m2 hot-dip galvanized steel plates that come with high tensile strength of up to 55000psi (379mpa). This highly enhances silo strength and service life. In addition, corrugated steel plates ensure precise installation. Zinc coating weight and thickness are strictly controlled to meet outdoor use requirements. It features stylish design with reliable corrosion resistance.
2. Cover System
The feed silo is designed with an active cover system on its top which enables opening, closing and locking of the silo on the ground. Stop bolts are used in the system to ensure cover can be freely opened within 180°.
3. Top Edge
According to actual conditions, the top edge of the feed bin comes in different designs. Turned edge is designed to keep rain away from hopper and lower part of the silo, giving protection for a whole day.
4. 40° Silo Roof
40° silo roof offers larger strength and volume.
5. Side Ladder
Every feed bin from Dingtuo can be outfitted with a rugged ladder. Every ladder is manufactured from a whole piece of galvanized steel plate by means of die pressing, thus ensuring high intensity, excellent stability and easy installation. Small concave pits are punched into the rungs to prevent slip.
6. Paneling
Funnel paneling is available for easy and safe inspection and cleaning. The paneling can be easily disassemble and assemble in a very short time. It may be suitable for all existing feed bins in poultry rearing systems.
7. Silo Funnel
Based on degrees of slope, the funnels of our feed storage bin are available in three options. 45 degree of slope in the silo funnel is a choice for discharging dry feeds, 60 degree for smooth flow grains and 67 degree for hard to flow grains.
8. Mounting Screws and Bolts
The feed bin is installed using 8.8-grade M10 high strength hot-dip galvanized bolts, and cross and vertical joints are sealed using plaster for rain prevention, high robustness and long service life.
9. Automatic Feed Conveying System
The silo can be used with automatic conveying system of both cage rearing and floor rearing plants to effective save feeds.

Three Methods for Observation of Feed Volume in the Bin
1. Judge the feed volume by the weighing instrument installed under the funnel;
2. Judge from the sound that is generated by the clash of a heavy object; the object is tied under one end of a rope that is around a pulley and fixed. Another rope is tied under the object and held in operator's hand.
3. Climb the ladder, open the cover and observe the volume of feed in the bin using your eyes.
