  • Hog Slat’s Magnum series of dry feeders give producers even more choices when selecting feeders to match their feeding program

    NEWTON GROVE, North Carolina, May 25, 2021 – Hog Slat, Inc., a globally recognized livestock equipment manufacturer and supplier, introduces new Magnum series feeders. The Magnum Series Feeders provide increased trough space to accommodate the needs of larger-sized animals.

    "Our Magnum series of dry feeders give producers even more choices when selecting feeders to match their feeding program," explained Hog Slat's sales manager Fritz Richards. "We expanded the Magnum base to give larger hogs an additional two inches of feeder depth. Producers can also choose feeder openings ranging from 14 to 15 inches in width."

    "We added a new style of divider for the wean-to-finish models called HyVis. This modified rodded divider provides pig separation while allowing more visibility for the caretakers. It is easier to see the amount of feed in the trough from a distance. We also introduced a new adjustment option named Lever Loc™. This adjustment provides 25 positive locking stops, each moving the feed gate a precise 1/16-inch. This makes adjusting the feed very repeatable from site to site along with simplifying employee training. The Lever Loc system also has increased leverage making adjustments easier when the feeder is full,” says Richards.

    Although the increase in finishing weights has received more attention, the same holds true for nursery pigs; according to Hog Slat product engineer Jamie Royal, "Looking at the recently updated information (Condotta et al. 23), an 11-pound pig has an average shoulder width of 5-1/2 inches. At 22-pounds, it's seven inches, and that changes to 8-3/8-inches when the pig reaches 44-pounds. Standard nursery feeders have a headspace that measures six by six inches. Our Magnum feeder increases the available headspace to eight inches by eight inches."

  • Infinity Fan
    Built on the rugged AirStorm X-Brace platform; Hog Slat's Infinity fan line incorporates advanced motor technology....

  • The Infinity Fan offers maximum flexibility while maintaining a simple to use and set up system.  The Infinity drive can integrate with most all controllers with variable outputs as it provides a selectable input of either 0-10V or 10-0V.  Infinity fans offer several significant advantages.

    Precise variable speed output. Upon receiving a signal from the house controller, the motor microprocessor determines the correct speed for the desired ventilation rate.  

    Reduced maintenance. The direct-drive motor eliminates shaft bearings, pulley, and belts: no more costly and time-consuming repairs and adjustments.

    Lower energy costs. At full load, the Infinity motor is more efficient than conventional AC motors.

    Extended motor life. Infinity motors operate at cooler temperatures than comparable voltage-controlled AC motors, even at slower speeds. High operating temperatures are one of the leading causes of motor failure.

    Fewer fans. Because of the Infinity fan’s ability to operate effectively at lower airflow rates, minimum ventilation rates are met without using smaller, less efficient fans.

  • GrowerSELECT Infrared Feed Control

    The GrowerSELECT Infrared Feed Controller has multiple built in features to run the feed system automatically with an intuitive display with a combination of colors and text to inform the operator. The infrared sensors can detect all types of feed and is not impacted by moisture unlike proximity sensors. Built in relay allows direct connection to the auger motor.

    FEATURES:

    • Infrared sensing technology
    • Multicolor display shows controller status at a glance
    • Maximum Run time monitoring
    • Alarm output relay
    • Feed delay
    • Feed Now option to bypass feed delay
    • Timed mode (enable controller during certain hours, disable during over-night hours)
    • Continuous run mode
