Based on its patented, gentle, cable and disc technology, Cablevey’s conveyors gently move products such as mash, vitamins, minerals and feed pellets through an enclosed tube without the use of air.

By using no air to convey, friable materials are kept intact as intended, from inlet to discharge points.

This gentle approach virtually eliminates the product separation and degradation that occur with traditional conveying systems such as Bucket Elevators, Screw Augers and Pneumatic systems.

For feeding pigs, the company's “AccuDial” Feed Drop allows you to select the optimal amount of feed for each individual sow, simply by the turn of a dial. Available with Positive Close to ensure that all drops close, eliminating feed waste.

Numerous layouts are available using multiple inlets and discharge points. Systems are customised to your specifications.
