Fully electric closing gate to protect the eating cow in the concentrate feeding station
Around the concentrate feeding station it can often be unsettled, as lower-ranking cows are repelled. Furthermore, bumping can cause nasty, permanent injuries. With the L'port Electric closing gate, this misery is gone for good. Like the pneumatic version, the L'port Electric increases cow comfort by creating more peace and quiet in and around the feeding station.
Eating peacefully without intrusive cows
Because the feeding station is securely closed, other cows have no chance of bumping into it. The L'port Electric closing gate guarantees that every cow can take in her concentrate feed in peace and quiet. In this way the concentrate feed will reach the right cow. This improves peace and quiet in and around the feeding station, which benefits cow comfort and animal welfare.
Fits most feeding stations
The L'port Electric closing gate is very easy to install on the below mentioned feeding stations. Especially for feeding stations with shorter side gates, the L'port Electric closing gate is also available in an XL - extension version. When height space is a limiting factor we have developed a closing door that protects the cows but does not take up height space.
How does the L'port closing gate work?
Once a cow is recognized and begins her concentrate feed, the L'Port Electric gate, like the pneumatic version, lowers quietly at the signal from the feed motors, securely closing off the entrance to the feeding station. When the concentrate feed is finished, the closing gate rises again. You can set the reaction speed of the closing gate yourself in 10-second increments.
Safety through smart power measurement and counterweight
The L'port Electric closing gate is designed so that cow traffic is not affected. The gate is perfectly matched to the feeding station so that no superfluous fences protrude above the walkway.
The closing gate is equipped with a unique and smart power measurement system that detects when a cow is under the gate. As soon as this happens, the gate immediately stops and rises slightly. The gate then tries to close again, each time with a slightly higher force, giving the cow more than enough time to walk away safely.
In case of power failure, a counterweight keeps the gate balanced. This ensures that a cow can always open the gate and leave the station safely.
