Cross Over fold-away feeding passage

The Cross Over fold-away feeding passage is incorporated in the feeding passage and can be quickly opened or closed at the press of a button. The surmountable Cross Over fold-away feeding passage provides daily working convenience and allows free passage of the cows and better pathways. In addition, this prevents manure or other contamination from ending up in the valuable feed.

The Cross Over fold-away feeding passage is a hydraulically operated feeding passage available in any desired size, height 105 mm and can be folded away in 2 parts. A Cross Over is custom-made to fit your needs. Because of the smooth and vibration-free hydraulic controls, reliability and long operational life are ensured. The strong and tough subframe can carry the high pressures of point loads and transfer it to the concrete substructure.

The hydraulic cylinders are raised up in cylinder cabinets so that they are protected from manure, urine, and moisture off the feed. If required, the covered cable pipes supplied can be cast in concrete, in which the hydraulic hoses will be embedded and protected.

Push-button operation with a 380V / 3kW compact generator that can be mounted on a console.

The whole construction will be hot dip galvanised and delivered in parts suitable for assembly. Because of the smart hydraulic controls, the Cross Over fold-away feeding passage runs smoothly, vibration-free, and silently, which limits the mechanical load and wear to a minimum.
