	GFS Temcheck Maintaining the temperature range in transport and storage of pig sperm is very important for subsequent successful fertilisation. GFS Temcheck is enclosed in the sperm delivery and shows the
farmer whether transport was in the optimal temperature range by a change from liquid to solid in the aggregate state. GFS Temcheck is a newly developed temperature-sensitive liquid. If the temperature falls below 15°C, the blue liquid solidifies. If the temperature rises above 22°C, the red liquid solidifies. This shows whether the sperm were transported and stored in the optimal temperature range.

New shutoff flap for Multifan 130
Vostermans Ventilation is always looking for ways to improve its products. Since the introduction of the Multifan 130, specially designed for tunnel and longitudinal ventilation in poultry and pig houses, demand for this product has increased sharply. In cooperation with users and our distribution network, we have recently significantly improved the shutoff flap: silent closing of the shutoff flap, the light inlet has been significantly reduced.

Trinc-1, triac controller for fan motor Vostermans Ventilation has developed the Trinc-1, a triac controller integrated in the motor. Feedback from the motor to the controller makes it possible to correct changes in air pressure simply. The user can be certain that the correct rpm are maintained, regardless of external wind and pressure influences.

TRANSPORT VEHICLES, TRANSPORT SERVICES

One O Four     Hall: 11 Stand: F40
One-O-Four HatchTraveller
Optimal chick quality is crucial for an optimal start of a broiler period. An underestimated important aspect in the control of chick quality is the transport of day old chicks from the hatchery to the farms. The laminar airflow inside the HatchTraveller secures a body temperature of 104º Fahrenheit of the day old chicks. At this body temperature the chicks feel comfortable and will use all their nutritional energy for development and growth.

Veenhuis Machines bv     Hall: 25 Stand: F02
Veenhuis has developed the Shuttle grain wagon to optimise the efficiency of harvesting and transporting cut maize from the field to biogas plants.
