We all know that the feeder’s job is to always feed the chickens in the henhouse with high degree of automation. So what is the working principle of the automatic layer chicken cages – feeder? How does it work with chicken cage equipment?
The automatic feeding machine is composed of PVC feeding line, feeding part and electric control of driving part. Before using the automatic feeder, you should first check around the feeder and the track, if there are any objects that hinder the normal operation of the feeder, you need to remember to remove it in time.
After the feed is poured into the feed tower, the feed line is started. The PVC feed line will feed the feed to each hopper of the feeder. When the last hopper is filled, the feed line will automatically stop working. This operation shows that the opening of the PVC feed line is controlled by an electric control box.
The work of the feeder is controlled by an electric control box. The feeding machine is controlled by the travel switch. After the feeding is finished, it will automatically stop working. Turn off the power during the maintenance of the equipment and be reminded by the warning sign. It is strictly forbidden to adjust or troubleshoot the feeder during operation, except for special requirements.
The motor on the main frame of the feeder controls the movement of the feeder, and the motor reducer on the walking frame controls the feeder to discharge. When the feeder is working, do not mix foreign matter into the feed, and also avoid the deformation and damage of the equipment caused by the foreign matter jamming or colliding the equipment. Small automatic feeders will also affect its normal work. During the operation of the feeder, someone should pay attention to the working condition of the feeder at any time, but also to avoid the accidental occurrence of the feeder that derails the feeder near the track.
The discharge condition of the automatic feeder can be adjusted by manual and automatic methods. The rotating discharge port adjustment screw can control the size of each discharge port to control the discharge amount. If the feeder does not discharge, you should check whether the feeding drive shaft is connected properly, and whether the motor is working normally. Also check whether there are foreign objects in the hopper or the conveying pipe that block the normal operation of the feeder. Do not touch the various transmission and transfer and walking parts of the feeder, so as to avoid injury.
