In the competitive world of commercial poultry production, efficiency isn't just an advantage—it's a necessity. Today, we explore how Zhengzhou Liwei Machinery's H-type broiler battery cages have revolutionized operations for farmers across China, delivering remarkable results for operations ranging from 10,000 to 50,000 birds.
When Mr. Chen expanded his broiler farm from 8,000 to 15,000 birds in 2021, he faced a common challenge: how to increase capacity without proportionally increasing labor and space. "We were stuck," he recalls. "Our traditional housing required more workers, more space, and disease management was becoming increasingly difficult."
After implementing Zhengzhou Liwei's H-type battery cage system, the results spoke for themselves. "Within six months, our feed conversion ratio improved by 12%, mortality dropped from 5.2% to 2.8%, and we reduced labor costs by 35%," Mr. Chen reports. "The investment paid for itself within 14 months."
At the core of these transformative results lies meticulous engineering. The H-type battery cages utilize Q235 bridge steel—an industrial-grade material known for its exceptional strength and durability. Unlike standard cage materials that degrade within 5-7 years, Liwei's cages undergo a hot-dip galvanization process that creates a corrosion-resistant barrier.
The multi-tier design of the H-type system represents a paradigm shift in space utilization. By stacking cages vertically, farmers can increase bird capacity by 120-150% within the same footprint compared to conventional floor-rearing systems.
"We were utilizing less than 40% of our available space before installing Liwei's system," explains Ms. Wang, who manages a 30,000-bird operation in Shandong province. "Now we've optimized our space usage to 92%, allowing us to maintain our land footprint while nearly tripling production."
Beyond space savings, the system's integrated design streamlines daily operations. Each cage unit features automated feeding lines, nipple drinkers, and manure removal systems that reduce manual labor requirements by 50-60%.
| Metric | Traditional System | H-type Battery Cage System | Improvement |
|---|---|---|---|
| Space Utilization | 35-45% | 85-95% | +140% |
| Labor Requirement | 1 worker/1,500 birds | 1 worker/4,000 birds | -62.5% |
| Feed Conversion Ratio | 2.2:1 | 1.85:1 | -15.9% |
| Mortality Rate | 4.5-6.0% | 2.5-3.2% | -44.4% |
What truly distinguishes Zhengzhou Liwei's offering is their end-to-end support system. The company provides complete project planning, including site assessment, customized cage configuration, and installation services. "The team arrived with everything needed and completed installation of our 50,000-bird system in just 18 days," notes a satisfied customer in Henan province.
Post-installation, farmers receive training on system operation and maintenance, along with ongoing technical support. This comprehensive approach ensures that customers maximize their investment from day one.
Whether you're planning a new facility or upgrading an existing operation, the H-type broiler battery cage system delivers proven results for farms of all sizes.
