Livestock farming automation: ELETOR in Trzoda Chlewna magazine

The September issue of the monthly magazine "Trzoda Chlewna" attempted to analyse the solutions available in Poland for automating livestock farming systems. ELETOR was invited to provide advice in this area. We shared some of our latest solutions for computer-based systems that manage the microclimate in livestock housing.

Several tens of thousands of our devices are in operation on the Polish market, controlling the air supply for several million farm animals, mainly pigs. ELETOR now faces the challenge of connecting all the devices already in operation to an IT network so that livestock farming processes can be optimised.

How to use this material when selecting automation

Selecting automation starts with defining the installation's purpose. Treat the example described as a starting point for comparing the site's requirements with the documentation for a specific device, rather than basing a decision solely on its name or photograph.

• Which part of the installation needs to be controlled, and in what mode?
• What operating conditions and connection method does the design specify?
• Which functions does the user need, and which require additional devices?
