Tri-Bar Balance
The Tri-Bar slatted floor system with movable sow slat
With the Balance Floor, Nooyen offers a sophisticated system centering on the reduction of piglet mortality caused by sows lying on piglets. As soon as the sow lies down, she activates a switch that lowers the sow slat to the same level as the piglet slat. When the sow gets up again, the sow slat will rise to a safe height.
The Tri-Bar Balance floor will change the way you work forever. This sow lifting system reduces your loss of crushed baby pigs by 80%. The reliable and proven technology also brings you convenience, peace of mind, and a high return on your investment.
The piglet slats used in this model are the Tri-Bar galvanized metal slats. Thanks to the V-shaped bars, the Tri-Bar slat provides a smooth and hygiene surface for the pig to lie on, perfect manure drainage and is extremely easy to clean.
The Tri-Bar Balance is operated using a flexible side-mounted switch. The Balance is laborsaving as the farrowing pens require less extensive monitoring. The Tri-Bar Balance is quick and easy to install.
The sophisticated Balance system means that initial investment costs are higher than the costs for conventional flooring for farrowing pens. However, the Balance system will quickly earn back this extra investment. The payback time mainly depends on the reduction of piglet mortality.
