GrowerSELECT- GROW-DISK Chain Feeding System Assembly & Operating Instructions

Hog Slat Inc. Newton Grove, NC USA December 2022 7 GROW-DISK™ Feed System GROW-DISK™ Feed System Principle of Operation Figure 1. The structure of the GROW-DISK™ Feed System depends on the conditions at the site and must be designed individually. The delivered quantity of corners (1) and the length of the conveyer tubes (2) are calculated by the seller. The manufacturer must be consulted before any extension of the feed conveyer system with corner pieces and / or conveyer tubes. The GROW-DISK™ Feed system is a closed loop made up of conveyer tubes (2) and corner (1) pieces. The feed is distributed by a GROW-FLEX™ AUGER SYSTEM to the chain disk fill hopper (3). The fill level can be monitored at the conveyer tube with the GROWER-SELECT Control Tube (clear tube) if provided. The drive unit (4) pulls a closed conveyer chain through the conveyer tube system. The conveyer chain (5) transports the feed to the feed dispensing stations with drop tubes (6). Depending on the shutter position of the outlet drops or sow drops (open or closed), the feed is either let out of the conveyer tubes or transported further. The shutdown proximity switch (7) located near the last feed dispenser station stops the drive unit so that no feed can be transported past the last feed dispenser station. 1 2 3 6 4 5 7
