Feeding systems for pigs of Fancom

Margins and prices in the pig farming sector are under pressure. Pig producers need solutions that increase the efficiency of their production processes, but without compromising the quality of the end product and animal welfare. As feed costs account for such a large part of the total production costs, this is an aspect that demands critical attention.

A suitable solution for every house

Because every house is different, Fancom offers a range of automatic feeding systems. The key features of these systems are flexibility, reliability and convenience.

IntelliTek sow feeding station

Feeding gestating sows individually

Fancom's Intellitek sow feeding station is designed for group housing of sows. This advanced system allows sows to feed one after another in a specially designed feeding station based on their social ranking. Sows have the flexibility to collect their daily feed ration in self-selected portions, although most choose to consume their full portion in one go. Thanks to advanced individual animal recognition technology, the Intellitek station ensures that each sow is automatically fed the right amount of feed, perfectly tailored to her needs.

FaroTek in the farrowing house

Individual feeding in the farrowing house

Our FaroTek is the innovative solution designed to meet the increasing nutritional needs of sows thanks to genetic advances. FaroTek allows you to feed sows several times a day, according to a personalised schedule tailored to each animal's individual needs. This system allows you to dispense feed gradually, which not only optimises milk production without the sow losing too much condition, but also improves digestion. Feed your sows more efficiently with smaller, more frequent portions at the times they need it with FaroTek.

Rondomat piglet feeder

Prevent weaning dip

The Rondomat is a sensor-controlled piglet feeder that helps ensure a smooth post-weaning transition to weaner feed. The weaned piglets are given immediate access to clean, fresh feed without having to learn how to operate a feed trough system. This prevents the dip often experienced by piglets after weaning. The result is piglets in optimal health with good, fast growth. The Rondomat is suitable for use in sections housing up to 70 piglets.

TouchTek sow management

Practical sow management

Good management means taking the right action at the right time. And that applies now more than ever to sow management. The TouchTek platform offers you the ideal tool to track and steer the performance of your sows during all phases of their lives. Giving you complete and clear control.

Aura 70 feeding computer

Automatic feed dispensing

The Aura 70 is the answer for pig farmers looking for a flexible and reliable solution to automate the feeding process, tailored to the specific requirements of the house. This system is ideal for situations where uniformity in feeding is desired, such as in all-in all-out systems for rearing piglets or finishing pigs. The unlimited dosing of mixed feed makes it perfect for groups with similar nutritional requirements, but it can also be effortlessly adapted for limited feeding of individual animals, such as sows. With the Aura 70, you enjoy low-fault operation and a user-friendly experience for your barn staff.

Lumina 71

Multi-phase feeding

For pig farmers seeking optimum flexibility in feed selection, transitions between different feed types and portion sizes per feed trough, the Lumina 71 is the ideal control for the multi-phase feeding system. This system offers unparalleled control over the feeding process, allowing you to provide exactly the right amount and composition of feed at each feeding point, fully tailored to the specific needs of your animals. The composition of the feed can change daily to meet the exact needs of the animals. Transitions are very gradual so that the animals have no trouble with different, new feed.

Efficient transport of feed from silo to trough

To complete your automatic feeding system complete, we supply a wide range of feeding systems for today’s pig producers. Whether you are looking for circular tube feeding systems or straight line auger feeding systems, we offer the best solution for every type of pig house to achieve optimal production results. The feeding systems are made of high quality, durable materials and require little maintenance. The modular construction means that all the components are compatible and enable almost unlimited configurations to create conventionally or automatically controlled feeding systems suitable for every category of pigs.

Lumina 78

Liquid feeding computer

The Lumina 78 liquid feeding computer is a perfect mix of convenience, reliability and flexibility. It is the centrepiece around which the liquid feeding system revolves, allowing the pig farmer to perfectly control the complete feeding process from silo to trough. The Lumina 78 controls the entire process of the SmartFix liquid feeding system, from in dosing the components, mixing and dispensing according to the set feed curve of the right feed quantity in the right composition to the assigned feeding places. In addition, the Lumina 78 records all consumption per component and per mixture. A striking feature of the new liquid feeding computer is its user-friendly PC operation via FarmManager.

Spiralling feed prices

The ever-spiralling feed prices are reducing the margins made in pig production. The greatest gains can be made by saving on feed costs. To effectively manage feed costs, it is vital that farmers have a clear insight into the feed consumption on their farms so that improvements can be made. An efficient, automated feeding process that generates extensive stock registration and data feed intake date is essential. This also saves time and helps to accurately control how much feed is given, as well as ensuring that each animal is automatically fed its feed ration.

Feed according to need

The improved genetic potential of finishers is a trend that producers must take into account. Pigs are increasingly able to efficiently convert their feed into meat. It is therefore important to carefully examine the precise nutritional needs of the animals and feed them a ration that is accurately formulated to achieve optimal technical results. And as soon as possible, switch to cheaper feed with a lower mineral content. This will not only reduce feed costs, but also prevent the unnecessary excretion of minerals in the manure and urine.

Up-scaling

The scale of farms is continuing to increase, and sometimes one farm is located on multiple sites. This development makes long-term, reliable functioning of feeding systems even more crucial for producers. And they want the security of being alerted in time by the computer that monitors the feeding process if things threaten to go wrong. The quality of the system and ease of operation are also factors that are becoming increasingly important. Only then can users easily adapt the feeding process to suit their individual situation and benefit from ease, time saving and improved technical results.
