Ventilation & Cooling Technology

A major influence on building performance. Our long relationship with SKOV, the world leaders in livestock ventilation systems, forms the ideal partnership, when combined with our high performance building shells.

Ventilation

  • Proper ventilation is essential for pig health and welfare.
  • Ventilation systems should provide fresh air, remove excess heat, moisture and gases, and maintain a comfortable temperature and humidity
  • Ventilation systems can be natural, mechanical or a combination of both.
  • Natural ventilation relies on wind and thermal buoyancy to create air movement.
  • Mechanical ventilation uses fans to control air flow and pressure.
  • Ventilation rates should be adjusted according to the season, the age and weight of the pigs, and the environmental conditions.

Cooling

Staying Cool with High Pressure Cooling.

Our Skov ventilation systems keep your pigs’ environment well balanced for optimum efficiency. But, with the advent of warmer summer weather and heatwaves it is absolutely necessary to maintain that balance for welfare as well as efficiency reasons by keeping temperatures down.

Pig Management Technology

Pig performance, and what drives it, must be measured in order to set about improving it. Then it must be monitored to evaluate the effects of any changes. Farm on Line from SKOV measures and evaluates all aspects of pig production, many in real time.

Automated Feeding.

Pig housing automated feeding is a system that delivers feed to pigs in a controlled and efficient manner.

Benefits of pig housing automated feeding include:

  • Reduced labour costs and time.
  • Improved feed conversion and animal welfare.
  • Enhanced bio security and disease prevention.
  • Optimised feed intake and growth performance.
  • Types of pig housing automated feeding systems include:
  • Dry feeding systems: use augers, conveyors or pneumatic tubes to transport feed from a central silo to feeders in each pen.
  • Liquid feeding systems: mix feed with water and pump it through pipes to feeders or troughs in each pen.
  • Electronic sow feeding (ESF) systems: use RFID tags to identify individual sows and dispense a customised amount of feed to each sow in a group housing setting.

AMW Production Technology

It would be wrong to promote the advantages of investment in technology to our customers and then ignore the advice ourselves.

We invest in both computer hardware and software. This, combined with capital investment in both plant and machinery, continually looks to improve our production efficiency at our East Yorkshire base.
