Traditional poultry farming methods often rely heavily on manual labor, resulting in inefficiencies, hygiene challenges, and escalating costs. For commercial egg producers managing flocks between 5,000 to 30,000 hens, these pain points translate directly into lower productivity and profitability. Addressing this, Zhengzhou Liwei Machinery offers the H-Type Layer Hen Cage equipped with advanced automated manure removal and egg collection systems to catalyze a smart farming transformation.
In large-scale poultry operations, manual cleaning of manure and egg collection consumes up to 50% of labor resources, often leading to inconsistent sanitation and delayed egg retrieval. Poor ventilation worsens flock health, negatively impacting egg yield. Combined with rising labor costs globally—averaging a 20-30% increase annually—producers face a pressing need for automation.
The intelligent system integrates conveyor belts and scraping mechanisms beneath the H-Type Layer Cage structure, systematically removing manure with minimal disruption to the hens. Simultaneously, the automatic egg collection conveyors ensure eggs are smoothly transported to centralized packing stations, reducing breakage and contamination risks. This mechanized synergy supports continuous sanitation and streamlines egg handling.
| Parameter | Before Automation | After Automation |
|---|---|---|
| Labor Hours Per 1000 Hens | 100 | 60 |
| Average Egg Production Rate (%) | 82 | 88 |
| Ventilation Efficiency | Standard | Improved by 15% |
The innovative H-type cage layout enhances spatial efficiency by stacking layers while maintaining excellent airflow. This not only improves hens’ comfort and health but also simplifies daily management tasks such as feeding and inspections. Operations teams report easier maintenance and faster troubleshooting thanks to modular components and robust construction.
A large-scale farm in Henan integrated Liwei’s automated solution across its 15,000-bird facility. Within 6 months, labor costs fell by 35%, and egg production improved by 7%, driven by improved hygiene and reduced stress. Another poultry operation in Shandong reported a 40% reduction in cleaning time and a drop in egg breakage rates by 25%, underscoring the system’s operational and economic advantages.
Liwei Machinery adheres to stringent international standards such as ISO 9001 Quality Management, ISO 14001 Environmental Management, and CE Certification. These guarantee reliability, environmental compliance, and safety—critical for farmers seeking long-term investment security.
"Switching to Liwei's automated manure and egg collection system transformed our farm's productivity and working conditions. We cut down labor costs significantly and noticed healthier hens and better egg yields within just months." — Mr. Zhang, Henan Poultry Farm Manager
Building on automated foundations, emerging IoT and sensor technologies are set to propel poultry farming into fully digital management, enabling real-time monitoring and data-driven decisions. Early adopters of Liwei’s systems are well-positioned to embrace these advancements and optimize operations further.
