Advanced Material Engineering for Long-Term Durability

Equipment that can endure heavy use and challenging farm conditions is essential to your investment. The 275g hot-dip galvanized steel frames with chemically bonded zinc coating used in our cages provide corrosion resistance that is significantly higher than that of electro-galvanized competitors.

Even with heavy stocking, the 3mm thick frame design stops the structure from bending and keeps it stable when using multiple levels.Cold-galvanized systems only last 4-6 years before losing strength, but hot-dip galvanization creates a strong metal bond that lasts 15-20 years.

The same hot-dip process is used on wire mesh floors, making them smooth and helping prevent footpad dermatitis and breast blisters, which are common problems in meat production.

By keeping up with Grade A carcass standards, this material helps protect your profits.

Fully Integrated Automation Systems

Labor costs and how efficiently a business runs are key to making a profit in today's chicken farming.Our system brings together four main automation technologies into one easy-to-use platform.

Automatic Feeding Systems: The feeding process is carefully controlled to make sure food is given evenly to all levels at the same time.

This helps chickens get the same amount of food and avoids stress from fighting over food.The feeding schedule can be changed to match the different stages of growth, from when the chickens are just a day old up to when they're ready to be harvested.

Nipple Drinking Lines: Each level has special drinking nipples that release the right amount of water and have valves to stop leaks.

This keeps the chickens well-hydrated and keeps the cages dry.The water pressure is controlled so that all levels get enough water.

Manure Belt Removal: Strong belts made of thick polypropylene (at least 1.0mm thick) with powerful motors are used to remove chicken waste.

These belts can be used to clean the area daily or twice a day, which stops bad smells and harmful bacteria from building up.This system is much better at preventing diseases like coccidiosis and necrotic enteritis compared to older systems that use the floor.

Environmental Monitoring Integration: We can add smart sensors that check temperature, humidity, and air quality in real time.

This helps make better decisions that can improve how efficiently the chickens convert feed into weight by up to 8%.

Multi-Tier Configuration Options

Your farm scale and building specifications require flexible system design. We manufacture H-type vertical stacking configurations in 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8-tier models, allowing you to triple or quadruple bird capacity per square meter of floor space.

Standard cage dimensions of 1.25m × 1m × 0.45m accommodate approximately 25-30 birds per unit, adhering to welfare standards of 450-550 cm² per bird. Height variations (0.45m/0.48m/0.5m) enable customization based on target harvest weights and regional regulations.

The 5cm elevated center structure enhances cross-ventilation between tiers, critical for temperature control in high-density installations. This design prevents heat stress—a primary cause of mortality and poor feed efficiency in tropical climates.

Our A-type stepped configurations suit open-sided houses with natural ventilation, while H-type systems integrate seamlessly with closed environment-controlled buildings requiring mechanical ventilation.

Biosecurity and Disease Prevention Design

Pathogen control directly impacts mortality rates and antibiotic usage costs. The elevated cage design eliminates bird-to-manure contact, breaking transmission cycles for ground-borne diseases like coccidiosis.

Smooth galvanized surfaces prevent bacterial colonization and simplify sanitation protocols between production cycles. Unlike porous litter systems, our cages support high-pressure washing and disinfection without material degradation.

Fully slatted flooring allows manure to drop immediately onto belts below, maintaining dry cage environments that inhibit parasitic and bacterial growth. This hygienic advantage reduces medication expenses and meets antibiotic-reduction standards required in export markets.

Closed-system automation minimizes human traffic through bird zones, further reducing biosecurity risks from external pathogen introduction.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How do your cages prevent breast blisters and footpad lesions common in cage systems?

A: Our wire mesh undergoes specialized surface treatment creating a smooth, flexible contact surface. Optional high-density plastic slat overlays provide cushioning that mimics litter comfort while maintaining hygiene. This dual-layer approach supports breast meat and feet, preventing the injuries that cause carcass downgrades. Field testing shows 40% reduction in footpad dermatitis compared to standard wire-only designs.

Q: Can birds be harvested automatically from multi-tier cages?

A: Yes, our H-type systems feature retractable bottom floors that allow gentle bird descent onto cleaned manure belts. These belts then function as conveyors transporting birds to collection points, eliminating manual catching. This automated harvesting reduces wing damage by approximately 40% and cuts harvest labor by 60%, while improving worker safety.

Q: What is the actual cost difference between hot-dip and electro-galvanized systems over time?

A: While hot-dip galvanized cages cost 20-30% more initially, their 15-20 year lifespan versus 4-6 years for electro-galvanized delivers superior long-term value. Replacement costs, production downtime, and structural failure risks make electro-galvanized systems 2-3 times more expensive over a 15-year investment horizon. For commercial operations, hot-dip galvanization is the only financially sound choice.

Q: How does the manure removal system handle heavier broiler waste compared to layer systems?

A: Broilers produce significantly higher waste volumes due to rapid growth and different feed composition. Our systems use reinforced PP belts ≥1.0mm thick with high-torque drive motors rated for heavy loads. Belt speeds and drive power specifications specifically account for broiler waste density. Daily or twice-daily removal cycles prevent accumulation, unlike the weekly cycles sufficient for layer operations.

Q: What stocking density do you recommend for optimal performance?

A: While cages enable higher building-level density, individual cage stocking should follow welfare standards of 25-30 kg/m² or approximately 450-550 cm² per bird depending on target harvest weight. This density maintains adequate ventilation within each tier and prevents competition stress. Overcrowding reduces feed conversion efficiency and increases mortality, negating the economic benefits of higher density.

Q: Are your systems compatible with existing farm buildings?

A: Yes, our design team customizes tier heights, total system dimensions, and automation configurations to fit existing structures. Provide building measurements, ceiling heights, door widths, and electrical specifications—we'll engineer a system maximizing your current infrastructure. Retrofitting existing buildings with our cages typically costs 40-50% less than new construction.
