Automatic H-Type Broiler Battery Cage System for Meat Chicken Farms
Next-Generation High-Density Broiler Housing with Integrated Automatic Harvesting & Turnkey Solutions
Product Overview & Detailed Description
The Automatic H-Type Broiler Battery Cage System engineered by Henan Silver Star Poultry Equipment Co., Ltd. is a heavy-duty, modern poultry housing solution designed specifically for commercial meat chicken production. Compared to traditional deep litter floor-rearing methods, this vertical H-frame cage configuration maximizes indoor shed utilization, allowing poultry farmers to increase stocking capacity by 200% to 300% per square meter.
Constructed with high-tensile international standard Q235 steel and treated with 100% Hot-Dip Galvanizing (275g/m² zinc coating), the system resists corrosive ammonia atmospheres and high humidity for over 15–20 years. To protect broilers during rapid growth, each cage floor is equipped with food-grade, soft plastic mesh mats that eliminate breast blisters, leg deformities, and footpad dermatitis, ensuring flawless carcass quality at harvest.
Key Advantages of Modern Broiler Cage Systems
- Maximized Land Efficiency: Vertical multi-tier arrangements (3 to 4 tiers) utilize vertical shed space effectively, dramatically lowering construction costs per bird.
- Massive Labor Reduction: Synchronized automation for feeding, drinking, manure clearing, and bird harvesting slashes daily operational labor by up to 80%.
- Gentle Automatic Harvesting: The dual-purpose PP manure belts double as bird-conveying belts during harvest time, transporting broilers safely to the front cross-conveyor without manual catching stress or bruising.
- Superior Meat Quality & FCR: Clean cage floors separate broilers from their waste daily, dramatically lowering ammonia levels and improving Feed Conversion Ratios (FCR) and growth rates.
Core Features & Automated Subsystems
1. Heavy-Duty Frame & Soft Flooring Protection
- Rigid H-Frame Design: Robust structural steel legs ensure solid stability up to 4 tiers high without sagging.
- Soft Plastic Mesh Mats: Removable virgin plastic mats cushion heavy meat chickens, preventing skin lesions, breast abrasions, and wing damage.
- Hot-Dip Galvanizing: 275g/m² zinc coating delivers maximum corrosion resistance under tough farm conditions.
2. Precision Traveling Hopper Feeding System
- Uniform Ration Delivery: Motorized feeding cars distribute exact, adjustable feed amounts across all tiers to encourage uniform flock growth.
- Anti-Waste Feed Troughs: Deep PVC or hot-dip galvanized troughs feature smooth inward-curved rims that stop feed wastage and prevent injury.
3. Continuous PP Belt Manure Cleaning & Harvesting
- Daily Manure Clearing: High-tensile Polypropylene (PP) belts underneath each level sweep manure completely outside the shed on demand.
- Automated Batch Harvesting: At market age, lower floor grids drop or open to transfer broilers smoothly onto belts for rapid out-loading.
4. Height-Adjustable Nipple Drinking Installation
- 360° Stainless Steel Nipples: Leak-proof nipple drinkers provide clean water continuously for day-old chicks and full-grown broilers.
- Winch-Adjustable Water Lines: Central winching systems easily raise drinking lines as birds mature.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q1: How does the automatic broiler harvesting system work?
A: When broilers reach target market weight, the flexible bottom plastic floor mesh is opened or removed. The birds land gently onto the PP conveyor belt underneath, which runs automatically to transport broilers straight to the end of the shed for fast crating.
Q2: Will raising broilers in cages cause breast blisters or leg injuries?
A: No. Our H-type broiler cages include soft, virgin plastic mesh mats laid on top of the steel floor wire. This provides a gentle, cushioned surface that prevents skin abrasions, breast blisters, and footpad dermatitis.
Q3: Do you offer free CAD farm layout design services?
A: Yes! We provide 100% free 2D and 3D CAD farm layouts customized to your land dimensions, target bird capacity per batch, and local climate specifications.
Q4: What is the manufacturing lead time for complete broiler cage systems?
A: Standard manufacturing delivery time is 20 to 30 days after deposit confirmation, depending on order size and customization options.
