LD-box: The mating stall LD-box is a traditional mating box that has an easy operating gate function and gives the sows a free choice.

Free Access Box - Focus on safety, optimizing space, and animal welfare. The Free Access Box is a combined mating and gestation unit. It focuses on safety, optimizing space, and animal welfare. The free access box has been designed and improved over the years to ensure the sows’ safety and minimize aggression during feeding. The box gives more space for a sow in a smaller area than other boxes in the market. Two sows can not go into the box simultaneously because we designed the box with a unique locking system. It is possible to lock one box or all the boxes at once, either automatically or manually. Furthermore, the flexible tie rod ensures the sow can always come out without getting hurt.

LD-box is a traditional mating box, that has an easy operating gate function and gives the sows a free choice. They can choose to stay in the box or in the resting area with the deep straw bedding.

Ad-lib feeder from ACO FUNKI is a feeder for lactating sows, where the sow can decide for herself how much she would like to consume from day 1 to weaning. Ad libitum lactating sow feeding helps to improve feed intake, litter weaning weight and sow reproduction and is a growing trend in the hog industry. Ad-lib feeder from ACO FUNKI allows the sow to mix feed and water in one feed, with no clogging, to take advantage of the many benefits of free-choice feeding of sows in farrowing crates. 

COMBI-feeder can be used for both nursing sows and weaners, and is the most useful in the farrowing pens for loose sows, where the sow is moved while the weaners stay in the pen. The system works by means of the pendulum in the tube bottom being removed during the lactating period, so that the feed falls down directly through the tube, and the feed is dosed in a mounted feed dispenser. When the sow is moved, the weaners eat from the trough without water and with the mounted pendulum, so that the pigs should activate the pendulum to get the feed.
