The Aura 70 is a feed computer especially made for Fancom's EasyFeed feeding system. EasyFeed is a simple
dry feed system based on volume dosing at house level. All the animals are given the same type of feed, no feed
weighing takes place. The EasyFeed system is very flexible and offers the following possibilities:
1. Individual feeding of i.e. sows using dispensers.
2. Feeding of groups of rearers or fatteners using liquid and dry feed troughs is possible.
The Aura 70 has a built-in time clock. The feed system is started externally or automatically at preset times. The
Aura 70 enables to choose whether you will start:
Opening the dispensers
: when the filling process starts, the dispensers will open and the feed will fall into
the troughs.
Filling the dispensers
: when the filling process starts, the dispensers will be filled first.
The basic components of the feeding system usually include a
silo auger
and a feed chain drive unit. The
System full sensor
on the end of the circuit registers if the system is full and stops filling it. A delay time for the
System full sensor can be set to ensure a successful start of the next feeding cycle, there will be still some feed
before the sensor. The
silo augers
remains off during this delay time to prevent the system from becoming
overfilled (till the silo switch sensor is free). The
Return feed sensor
turns on/off the feed intake from the silo
auger. If the
Silo switch sensor
detects no feed it will turn over to the second silo.
