ALL THE BENEFITS OF LARGE OPEN PENS

Nedap’s unique pen layout and optimal pig flow provides a very peaceful and stress free setting for your sows in group housing. The feed station with central separation makes it easy to manage and monitor each individual sow with the latest in RFID technology. You can respond immediately to a sow that needs additional attention. The system even detects and spray marks a sow missing an ear tag.

Proper sow routing

• Optimal pen flow – less aggression

• Separate selection pen – safe for animals and employees

The Nedap Velos ESF system provides the perfect solution for large open pens allowing individual sows to be introduced into the group after insemination and then to be separated at the proper time at the end of their gestation periods.

The Nedap Velos ESF system makes automated monitoring and feeding of each sow possible on an individual basis. Each sow receives the attention that it needs and the pen space and feed stations remain fully utilized.

Advantages of the Nedap Velos ESF system

• Mechanical entrance gate

• Improved performance of heat detection (save labor)

• Uses a 98% accurate auger and no spill cup

• Easy to maintain and fewer moving parts

Nedap technology provides simple automation of sow management on an individual animal level.

In doing so, the Nedap Velos ESF system contributes to the efficiency and profitability of piglet production worldwide.

In a Nedap Velos ESF system pen, the sows come to the feed instead of you bringing feed to the sows.

The feed station dispenses exactly the right portion at the right time to each sow – in comfort and

safety.

This saves you time, energy, and increases your business’ profitability. It also allows your sows full freedom of movement. This makes the Nedap ESF system the most sound and most sustainable option for modern-day sow farms.

Nedap Velos Electronic Sow Feeding: our solutions

The solution for Static Groups

The Nedap Velos ESF system offers you the best possible farm concept for static groups.  A group of sows inseminated within 3-5 days of each other are kept together for their entire pregnancy. This makes it easy to monitor and treat the group as a whole.  What’s more, the Nedap Velos ESF system provides the best possible feeding solution for each individual sow in the group.

 

The solution for Large Open Pens- Dynamic groups

The Nedap Velos ESF system offers you the perfect solution for large dynamic pens in which individual sows are introduced into the group immediately after insemination and are separated at the proper time at the end of their pregnancy for farrowing. The Nedap Velos ESF system provides automatic monitoring and feeding of each individual sow in these groups. So every sow gets the exact amount of attention she needs. But that’s not all: the system also optimizes the use of barn space and feed stations.
