Even after a short time we have noticed the calm in the stalls, better weight gain and clean animals due to the stable straw system Astor.
ASTOR – STABLE STRAW SYSTEM
The HETWIN ASTOR robot for automatic bedding consists of two parts: The Storage Container and the ASTOR Strewing Robot.
STORAGE CONTAINER
The Storage Container holds up to two square bales or three round bales, which can be pre-stored. From there the bales are automatically broken up from below, conveyed automatically to the dosing equipment, and further loosened up and transported to the strewing robot via the conveyor belt.
ASTOR ROBOT
The Strewing Robot, suspended from an overhead track, runs silently through the stable strewing the bedding material. It can be programmed to run different routes at set times. While in the parked position, the ASTOR re-charges its batteries.
