FAQ

1. Why use a crate scale for pig weighing instead of an open platform scale?

Pigs often move quickly and may turn around during weighing, which can affect weighing efficiency and make handling more difficult. A crate scale helps keep animals within a controlled weighing area and provides a more organised weighing process.

2. What types of pigs can APS cage scale be used to weigh?

Pig crate scales are commonly used for growers, finishers, breeding stock, and other pigs that require individual weight measurement.

3.Can APS pig weighing crate scale be integrated into daily pig management procedures?

Yes, many farms weigh pigs during activities such as grouping, selection, breeding management, and performance monitoring. Incorporating weighing into normal handling procedures makes it easier to collect weight information as part of daily operations. This can help farms establish more consistent weighing methods.

5. Does the scale require a weighing indicator to operate?

The built-in load cells must be connected to a compatible weighing indicator to display and manage weight information. Depending on operational requirements, farms may select indicators with basic weighing functions or indicators that support additional data functions.

6. Can this scale be combined with data recording functions in the future?

By selecting appropriate weighing indicators, the weighing system can be expanded to support additional data management requirements that arise as farm needs change. This allows farms to develop their weighing systems gradually rather than replacing equipment entirely.
