There are many important considerations to take into account when selecting a centralized feeding system. Capacities, uptime, ease of use and service intervals are all reasons why FeedStation is often selected. Historically, mechanical components were the main assessment factor, but with an increasing focus on data capture and centralization of feeding, software has become an even more important for the decision-making factor.
Infrastructure:
- High-speed CAT6a cables offering speeds of up to 10GB/s.
- Industrial network components supplied by Cisco.
- Industrial server and PLS components.
- Electrical cabinets with high quality components.
Capacity:
- 16 feed lines, with the option to expand further.
- Wide range of selector valves, augers and pipe dimensions available.
Software:
- User interface built on modern HTML5 technology.
- Advanced reporting, graphs and management capabilities.
- Open APIs for data exchange and process management.
- Supports multiple locations with full traceability of changes made.
Quality
As our customer, you get one of the most user-friendly centralized feeding systems on the market – a robust and reliable system that gives you full control over the feeding process, regardless of your feeding strategy. We have installed over 900 centralized feeding systems at aquaculture facilities both on- and offshore. This makes us an expert in the field and a valuable partner when you are planning an update to your existing facility or want to discuss feeding solutions at a new site. The system handles the feed gently – from silo to fish. It features integrated cameras, sensors and remote control systems, and comes with built-in automatic integration to production management systems such as Mercatus Farmer. All components are carefully selected to provide you with easy and carefree maintenance, as well as long service intervals – resulting in lower costs to you. Our system consists of high quality industrial components. All parts of our feeding systems meet our quality requirements, meaning that we always deliver the most reliable systems.
Flexible
We customize systems to meet all your feeding needs, and our systems support all modern methods of feeding fish. The centralized feeding system can deliver pellets unscathed at a distance of up to 900 meters from the select valve, and simultaneously from two silos containing different pellet sizes.
Gentle feed treatment
We are all aware of the need to avoid minor damage to and crushing of feed. We supply systems with the same pipe dimensions throughout the system. We also avoid using joints in the distribution valve. There are no sharp edges, and we ensure that all angles in bends and pipes are optimized to prevent turbulence and in order to guarantee that the feed is whole when it reaches the fish.
Integration
Our feeding systems feature integrated external hardware such as cameras, environmental sensors and remote control systems to give you full control over your daily feeding routine on site. In addition, we also offer full integration with our software products for production control, planning and finance.
System maintenance
We offer system maintenance of mechanical components and software. Regular checks ensure stability and reliability in the long-term. Highly qualified personnel carry out detailed inspections and subsequently deliver comprehensive reports with recommended and preventive measures.
