ABC Machinery fully automated layer cage system is a highly customizable commercial solution designed to meet your specific production needs and raw material requirements. Engineered for maximum efficiency and reliability, our system optimizes egg production processes to deliver superior yields and profitability.
The integrated design incorporates seven advanced components: a durable cage structure, automated feeding and drinking systems, efficient manure removal, efficient egg collection, climate-adaptive ventilation, and intelligent environmental controls. Together, these features create a reliable, modern poultry farming operation, ensuring consistent performance, improved bird welfare, and higher returns on investment.
Components and Layout Design of Layer Cages
The ABC Machinery layer cage is popularly used in poultry farms. Layer cage structure, a mesh system, and an automatic drinking system are necessary. The feeding system, egg collection system, and manure removal system can be chosen manually or automatically. Our layer cage is designed with 3 or 4 tiers, which is convenient for workers to manage chickens.
ABC Machinery A-type layer cage is made of hot-dip galvanized steel with a smooth, weld-free surface and compact mesh design to save space and reduce shipping costs. The 8° sloped bottom helps eggs roll out gently to prevent breakage. With less tier overlap, it improves ventilation and suits both open and closed poultry houses. Each row runs independently for easy manure removal and efficient management.
ABC Machinery H-type layer cage frame is made of 275g/m² galvanized steel with 2.0mm thick cage legs. The frames are spaced 1 meter apart, with separator nets dividing the cages into two compartments. Each cage holds 6-7 hens, offering about 447 square centimeters of space per hen. This design allows for efficient egg collection, with up to 20,000 eggs per hour, and is easy to install and debug.
