STATE-OF-THE-ART AUTOMATION
The TOUCH housing computer as a friend and helper
With good automation, many tasks in the mobile barn can be carried out without any effort on the part of the operator. Activities that require assistance can be significantly simplified through efficient automation. The permanent regulation of the climate ensures a comfortable environment for the animals. Constant monitoring of many parameters and selective alerts provide the necessary security for the farmer.
Complete remote access
The housing computer can be accessed via the internet using a PC, mobile phone or tablet. Important messages are sent directly to you via SMS. You do not need to be in the mobile barn to change settings; this can be done from anywhere in the world. If necessary, the Steiner team can also access your TOUCH housing computer remotely in order to support you. That’s provided you wish and allow this.

AUTOMATED SOLUTIONS
Reduction of manual workload
- Egg conveyor cleaning takes place automatically every night
- Fully automatic egg conveyor sensor facilitates daily egg removal
- Only very few misplaced eggs thanks to the optimised lighting of the barn and the spacious, animal-friendly laying area
- Electric manure removal takes place at definable intervals.
- Thanks to the integrated animal scales and the intelligent algorithm, constant monitoring of the laying hens’ weight is possible without any effort at all.
- Automatic pipe flushing ensures maintenance-free operation of the water supply and prevents build-up of dirt in the nipple drinking system.
- If desired, blinds can be fitted to darken the windows and be controlled from the TOUCH housing computer.
- Relocating the mobile barn is simplified by the integrated hydraulic system.
- The complete illumination of the entire barn simplifies work.
- The simple entry of the laying performance in the TOUCH housing computer replaces the need to keep manual laying lists.
The tried and tested folding mechanism makes it possible to close off the space under the aviary and under the laying area. This prevents the eggs from being laid in these zones during the acclimatisation phase. Depending on the customer’s requirements, the design can be opened and closed mechanically or automatically.
