Big Dutchman products

With the EV 2240-EU, Big Dutchman offers you a new system for efficient, animal friendly and safe egg production. Its main advantages are the high functionality and profitability, excellent hygienic conditions and comfort of use. The system depth of 2.24 m in the animal area including centre partition allows for a group size of 54 hens. The concise structural system layout (nest, litter area, perches, feed and water supply) provides ample freedom of movement and thus permits the hens to act out their natural behaviour.

With the EUROVENT EU colony system, Big Dutchman provides you with everything you need for animal-friendly and efficient egg production. Two of the most important advantages are maximum hygiene and the best possible product safety. The enriched colony system fully complies with the EU Directive 1999/74/EC of 19 July 1999*.

The elevator for secure egg transport that requires little space in the end set area. EggSmart is a new elevator from Big Dutchman that transports eggs from the longitudinal belts to the elevator chain and then onto the cross belt. The new elevator needs very little space in the end set area. The eggs are first transferred from the longitudinal egg belt to a short rod conveyor, from where deflectors distribute them onto the entire width of the elevator chain. No additional dosing units are required. The well-proven Big Dutchman transfer unit then transfers the eggs from the patented elevator chain to the cross belt. EggSmart can collect eggs from up to four tiers simultaneously.
