The automated catching of broilers can now be done in 3 different ways:
1. The birds are first transported on the belts underneath the cages, secondly, from there onto a cross belt, and finally they are moved into the crates;
2. the birds are transported on the belts underneath the cages directly into containers which are positioned on platforms behind the the cages;
3. the birds are first transported on the belts underneath the cages onto a cross belt, and from there, they are fully automatically loaded, counted and weighed into the containers.
The automatic container loading platform, an innovative product of Jansen Poultry Equipment, has been granted patent!
Broiler producers are very enthusiastic about the system: It saves them a lot of time and money. Especially, when a high number of broilers must be caught and handled, the automatic catching system saves a lot in the labor costs. And further more, compared to the time-consuming manual catching, the automated catching reduces considerably any damages caused to the broilers.
