Manure Cleaning System

In caged layer breeding, timely manure cleaning and environmental hygiene are crucial for ensuring the health of breeding hens and improving reproductive performance. This manure cleaning system is precisely designed according to the structural characteristics of A-Type and H-Type cages, adapting to two core equipment: scraper manure cleaners and belt manure cleaners. Through automated operation, it achieves efficient collection, transportation and discharge of manure, fundamentally reducing the breeding of harmful gases such as ammonia and hydrogen sulfide, lowering the risk of intestinal and respiratory diseases transmission. It creates a dry, hygienic and low-stress breeding environment for breeding hens, helping to improve the qualified rate of hatching eggs, fertilization rate and comprehensive breeding benefits.
1. System Adaptation Schemes and Core Equipment
1.Adaptation Scheme for A-Type Cages:

Scraper Manure Cleaner: Designed specifically for the stacked layout of A-Type cages, it adopts high-strength stainless steel scrapers (thickness ≥3mm) that reciprocate along the guide rails at the bottom of the cage group. The scraper’s fit with the ground is ≥95%, enabling thorough manure scraping without residue or accumulation. The equipment supports single-group/multi-group linkage control with adjustable operating speed (0.8-1.2m/min), suitable for 1-4 layer A-Type cages. The manure cleaning cycle can be set according to breeding density (2-4 hours/time). Both ends of the scraper are equipped with buffer devices, with an operating noise ≤65dB to avoid disturbing breeding hens; the guide rails are treated with anti-corrosion coating, adapting to humid breeding environments with a service life ≥8 years.

Belt Manure Cleaner: Designed for large-scale A-Type cage breeding farms, it adopts food-grade PVC conveyor belts (thickness ≥2.5mm) with non-slip texture on the surface to prevent manure from sliding off. The conveyor belt is laid horizontally along the bottom of the cage group, operating at a speed of 0.5-1.0m/min, and realizes continuous manure cleaning driven by a motor. A single belt has a maximum coverage width of 3.5m, suitable for synchronous manure cleaning of multi-layer cages. The equipment is equipped with automatic deviation correction devices and tensioning mechanisms to avoid belt deviation or slack; the end is connected to a manure conveying pipeline, directly leading to a fermentation tank or storage bin, reducing manual transportation links, and the manure cleaning efficiency is more than 60% higher than traditional methods.
2.Adaptation Scheme for H-Type Cages:

Belt Manure Cleaner (Specialized Model): Optimized for the double-row symmetric layout of H-Type cages, it adopts a dual-belt synchronous operation structure, corresponding to manure collection from cages on both sides respectively. The conveyor belt is made of polyester fiber reinforced material with a tensile strength ≥15MPa, wear-resistant and corrosion-resistant, suitable for the use scenario of high-rise (≤6 layers) and large-span (≤5m) H-Type cages. The equipment integrates intelligent speed regulation function, which can dynamically adjust the operating speed (0.3-0.8m/min) according to the amount of manure produced; a leak-proof manure receiving plate is installed under the belt to prevent manure from falling and polluting the lower cages; the end is equipped with a manure crushing device, which crushes lumpy manure to facilitate subsequent fermentation treatment, effectively reducing the concentration of harmful gas emissions (ammonia ≤10ppm).
2. Core Advantages of the System

High Efficiency and Hygiene: Automated continuous manure cleaning, with a manure residue rate ≤3%, reducing indoor air humidity by 15-20%, significantly lowering harmful gas concentrations, and reducing the incidence of respiratory diseases in breeding hens by more than 40%.

Low-Stress Design: The equipment operates with noise ≤60dB and no violent vibration, avoiding startling breeding hens; the manure cleaning process does not interfere with the feeding and egg-laying behaviors of breeding hens, increasing the qualified rate of hatching eggs by 3-5%.

Flexible Adaptation: Custom-designed for different structures of A-Type and H-Type cages, supporting on-demand configuration for single-group/large-scale breeding farms, and can be linked with intelligent breeding systems to realize automatic adjustment of manure cleaning cycles.

Energy Conservation and Environmental Protection: Driven by variable frequency motors, the power consumption is 30% lower than traditional manure cleaning equipment; concentrated manure collection can be directly used for organic fertilizer fermentation, realizing resource utilization of breeding waste and reducing environmental treatment costs.
