AutoXL Feeder Control

Simplicity...The key to feeding success

Features:

  • Simple and easy to use ration feeder control
  • Herringbone or abreast parlours
  • Individual and global feeder calibration
  • Built-in standby feeding
  • Automatic resettable fuses
  • Easy-to-use batch feeding feature
  • 15 farm-settable ration keys configured from the keyboard

The AutoXL has 15 ration keys, farm set to precisely the farmer's preferences; he simply calibrates key '1' to deliver the basic ration - one unit of feed (any value from 100 grams upwards). The other keys then automatically deliver multiples of this as necessary; key '2' will give two units, key '3' will give three units... and so on. The farmer has complete control of the keys and rations. That's flexible. And easy too, because he can carry out all of the feeder calibration and ration setup from the control panel; no fiddly knobs and switches to negotiate.

As the cows enter the parlour prior to milking and file past the AutoXL, the farmer simply presses the appropriate ration key for that cow. The correct ration is delivered to the correct stall because the AutoXL automatically sets the stall and the side. One key press. That's fast. And friendly, because the ration, stall and side are displayed digitally together with the cumulative feed total.

The AutoXL can 'remember' ration keys that have been pressed and at the same time control the feeders so there is no irritating wait for a feeder to finish before another ration can be entered. It all runs so very efficiently, smoothly and reliably.

Need to skip feeding a cow? Just press the '0' ration key and the AutoXL will move onto the next stall.

The AutoXL keeps track of the stall count and changes parlour sides automatically, but there is also a dedicated 'side' key for changing sides manually.

Need to feed a group of cows with the same ration? Just press the 'batch' key, then the appropriate ration key and all of the parlour side or selected stalls are fed with the same amount of cake.
