Augers deliver various types of feed to different pens.
During basic operation, feed from the storage silo empties into a dosing auger. The auger moves this feed into a sluice-hopper and injector system. The injector introduces the feed into the main transport pipe. The feed is then picked up by air from the blower and moved into the distribution valve where it is directed into the individual feed pipes traveling to the specific tanks, raceways or net-pens on the site. All aspects of the feeding operation such as feed rates, meal times, feed types, etc. are controlled with the Pneumo Autofeeder Software.
