Duck Barn

Buschur Equipment Project

Featuring:

Flex Auger Feeding System
Valco Watering System

Details:

Two identical barns were set up for this customer.

Each barn’s feeding system includes a 15 ton bin with a flex auger bringing feed into the barn. Once inside the barn this auger drops into another perpendicular auger which delivers feed the length of the barn through a series of drop tubes.

The Valco watering system includes a filtration system, medicator, and regulator to control pressure. The watering lines were built in a ladder system to the contractor’s specifications and includes an automatic flush system to keep water fresh.

Southwest Automation also installed a winching system to raise and lower the duck nests to simplify the process of gathering the eggs.
