Enhanced durability and extended lifespan
The patent-pending one-adjuster design eliminates the bottom adjuster, which is prone to corrosion due to the accumulation of saliva, rain, and dirt. By removing this vulnerability, the Ultimate Series feeders offer a longer lifespan, reducing replacement costs for producers.
Finer and more accurate feed adjustments
The galvanized ratchets used in the Ultimate Series feeders feature a threaded design, enabling more precise and even feed adjustments compared to the cage nut system used in the conventional feeders. This improvement allows producers to confidently set the feeder to the desired rate, ensuring optimal feed delivery and minimizing waste.
Improved livestock safety and component protection
The Ultimate Series feeders have been designed to minimize sharp edges in the feed area, reducing the risk of injury to livestock. The single, robust adjuster eliminates the need for internal supports, while an easily removable reinforced shelter covers all external adjustment components, protecting both livestock and the feeder from damage.
Enhanced cleanability with the swing-away tongue restrictor
The innovative swing-away tongue restrictor design allows for easy access to the feed area for thorough cleaning and maintenance. By removing just two pins on each side, the restrictor can be swung away, preventing the accumulation of feed, dirt, and moisture that can lead to corrosion. This feature simplifies maintenance and helps to extend the feeder’s lifespan.
Easier to achieve lower feed rates
The Ultimate Series feeders incorporate a tongue restrictor design that closes off the top 10mm of the lick area, effectively creating extra width in the grain tray. This allows for more freely flowing feed, making it easier to achieve low feed rates, which is particularly valuable during drought situations or maintenance feeding periods.
