Hatchery Feeding Systems
Feeding is one of the most critical steps in hatchery production, ensuring the healthy development of larvae and juvenile fish. Akuakare offers manual, semi-automatic, and fully automatic feeding systems designed to match the feeding behavior of different species, with the goal of maximizing production efficiency.
Precision in Feeding Technology
Overfeeding or underfeeding juveniles can cause developmental disorders, deteriorate water quality, and lead to significant economic losses. For this reason, our feeding systems are equipped with precise dosing control, homogeneous distribution, and timer-controlled delivery mechanisms as standard.
Core System Components
✓ Micro-feed dosing hoppers
✓ Rotational or vibrating distribution devices
✓ Manual or PLC-controlled timer modules
✓ Moisture-protected hoppers for fresh feed
✓ Tubular or linear transport systems
✓ Low-voltage, safe power supply
Feeding Models
➤ Manual Feeding Unit: Entry-level system, ideal for small-scale production areas.
➤ Automatic Vibrating Dispenser: Time-programmed system that optimizes feeding intervals.
➤ Multi-Line System with Central Control Panel: Enables simultaneous feeding in large-scale hatcheries.
Photoperiod and Feeding Integration
Automatic feeding systems integrated with photoperiod control synchronize feeding times with light cycles, imitating natural feeding behavior. This reduces stress while increasing growth rate and survival rates.
Integration Capabilities
✓ SCADA-compatible control infrastructure
✓ IoT-based remote monitoring and data logging
✓ Synchronization with algae and artemia production modules
✓ Optional sensor integration (light, temperature, feed level)
