PIG FEED DELIVERY SYSTEMS
Pig Feed Delivery Lines for Automatic Pig Feeding Systems
Compare flexible auger and chain-disc feed delivery lines for moving feed from a silo or hopper to planned discharge points inside pig houses. KAMOF reviews the route, feed source, corners, drops, interfaces and electrical requirements before preparing a project quotation.
Choose the Feed Delivery System
A feed line should be selected as a system, not as an isolated pipe diameter. Flexible auger and chain-disc lines use different conveying elements, route components and drive arrangements.
Spiral Conveying in a Matched Pipe
A flexible spiral auger rotates inside a compatible pipe to move feed along a planned one-way route. Hopper, pipe, drive and drop components must match the documented configuration.
Chain and Discs with Compatible Corners
A chain-disc line pulls a chain with polymer discs through matching pipe and corner components. The route, corner wheels, outlets and drive package are selected together.
Flexible Auger Feed Delivery Lines
Documented flexible auger configurations use a spiral conveying element inside PVC pipe. The final drive, route and connection details are confirmed for the selected series.
Representative 60, 75 and 90 mm configurations are shown below because their pipe and conveying roles are clearly documented. They are configuration references, not universal models or guaranteed project performance values.
A flexible auger line can be reviewed with a silo outlet, transparent hopper, intermediate connection and discharge points leading to feeders or troughs.
Chain-Disc Feed Conveying Lines
This public release presents the documented 60 mm chain-disc configuration and verified matching components.
A chain-disc system uses a chain with polymer discs, compatible feed pipe, corner wheels, drive-related components and selected outlets. Route changes are handled with components made for the chosen series.
Power, distance, throughput, corner quantity and electrical data are not generalized across suppliers or series. These items are reviewed with the selected route and drive package.
Main Feed-Line Components
Only representative, verified components are shown. Exact matching depends on the selected system and interface dimensions.
Conveying Element
Flexible spiral augers and chain-disc elements are selected only for their compatible system family.
Feed Pipe
Pipe diameter and documented material must match the selected conveying element and connection parts.
Corners and Route Parts
Chain-disc corner wheels and other route components are series-specific.
Drop and Connection Parts
Outlet, three-way and connector dimensions are reviewed against the pipe and feed-point layout.
Silo and Hopper Connections
The delivery line begins at a confirmed feed source. Silo outlet, hopper and transition parts should be reviewed with the selected conveying system.
Provide the silo or hopper position, outlet information and planned route. If an existing feed source will be reused, include connection dimensions and clear photos.
For wider storage context, review the Pig Feed Silo page. A silo connection should not be assumed compatible until the interface and system family are confirmed.
Drive Units, Sensors and Controls
Drive and control equipment is selected for the documented system configuration and project route.
Selected systems may use a drive unit, terminal feed-level sensor and control functions for automatic start and stop. The available scope depends on the chosen equipment.
Electrical requirements are confirmed for the selected drive and control package before quotation. Voltage, frequency and control functions are not assumed from the destination country alone.
Pipe Diameter and Layout Planning
Diameter is one input in a complete configuration review. It does not independently determine route length, capacity or motor power.
Final line configuration depends on the selected system, route length, elevation, corner arrangement, feed characteristics and discharge-point requirements. A straight one-house route and a multi-building route can require different system structures even when they use a similar component size.
Material options shown for individual components apply only to the documented series. Final material and compatibility are confirmed before quotation.
Corners, Drops and Feed Points
Route changes and discharge points should be counted on a layout before equipment is selected.
Corner Review
Corner quantity and route changes must be reviewed against the selected conveying system and project layout. There is no universal corner limit for every line.
Drop-Point Review
Drop outlets and three-way components must match the pipe, route and feeder connection. Confirm the required quantity and outlet position for each house.

How to Select a Feed Delivery Line
System selection follows the project route and supply boundary.
Map the Feed Route
Mark the feed source, houses, elevation changes, corners and discharge points.
Choose the System Family
Compare flexible auger and chain-disc structures against the route and maintenance conditions.
Match the Components
Confirm pipe, conveying element, drive, connections, drops, sensors and controls.
Confirm the Quotation
Review electrical requirements, quantity, packing, destination and delivery schedule.

Component and Replacement-Part Supply
Selected feed-line components may be supplied separately after the existing system, dimensions and connection requirements are reviewed.
Possible discussion items include augers, chain and disc elements, pipe, corner wheels, drop outlets, three-way outlets, transparent hoppers, pipe connectors, silo connections and selected sensor or control components.
For replacement-part enquiries, provide photos, dimensions, connection details and any existing model reference. A component is not presented as a direct replacement for every brand or system without technical confirmation.

Pig Feed Delivery Line FAQ
What is the difference between an auger feed line and a chain-disc feed line?
A flexible auger line rotates a spiral conveying element inside a compatible pipe. A chain-disc line pulls a chain with polymer discs through matching pipe and corner components. Their pipes, drive arrangements, route components and performance data are system-specific and are not automatically interchangeable.
Which pipe diameter should I choose?
Diameter selection depends on the conveying system, feed characteristics, route, discharge points and compatible drive package. Provide a layout before selecting a series or component size.
How many corners can a feed delivery line use?
There is no universal corner limit for every system. Corner quantity and route changes must be reviewed against the selected conveying system and project layout.
Can selected feed-line components be supplied separately?
Selected components may be discussed separately after the existing system, dimensions and connection requirements are reviewed. Photos, drawings and model references help confirm compatibility.
How are electrical requirements confirmed?
Electrical requirements are confirmed for the selected drive and control package before quotation. Please provide the required voltage and frequency for the destination market.
What information is required for a quotation?
Send the feed source position, pig-house dimensions, route length, elevation changes, corners, discharge points, feed type, electrical requirements, destination and the components or complete system required.
