How AutoFlex Connect Unifies Barn Automation for Maximum Efficiency

Barn operations require constant monitoring and adjustments—from feed distribution to air circulation and lighting. Instead of managing each system separately, AutoFlex Connect integrates them all, creating a smart, responsive environment that maximizes efficiency and reduces operational costs.

Why Full System Automation Matters

Managing multiple systems manually leads to inconsistencies, inefficiencies, and labor-intensive processes. With AutoFlex Connect:

  • Feeding, ventilation, and climate control work together to create optimal conditions.
  • Automated scheduling ensures feeding, lighting, and ventilation adjust based on time of day, temperature, or occupancy.
  • Producers can monitor everything remotely, making adjustments as needed in real-time.

How AutoFlex Connect Integrates with Barn Systems

Chain Disk Feed System and Feed Loop
  • Optimized feed scheduling for better herd nutrition
  • Blockage detection to prevent disruptions in feed delivery
  • Motor load balancing to reduce wear and maintenance
Ventilation and Airflow Management
  • Fan speed automation based on humidity, temperature, and air quality
  • CO2 and ammonia monitoring to prevents air quality issues
  • Climate control synchronization ensures stable barn climate
Lighting and Day-Night Cycle Management
  • Synchronizes with feeding schedules to support optimal growth
  • Reduces energy use by dimming or turning off lights in unoccupied areas
  • Automates transitions between day and night cycles, reducing stress on animals
Remote Access & Alerts
  • Monitor feed systems, ventilation, and lighting from anywhere
  • Receive instant notifications for maintenance needs, motor failures, or feed flow issues
  • Adjust settings remotely, saving time and increasing efficiency

Why Barn Operators Benefit from AutoFlex Connect

  • Improved operational efficiency—Automation reduces human error and ensures precision.
  • Cost savings—Synchronizing feed, airflow, and lighting lowers energy and feed waste costs.
  • Better animal growth—Pigs get precisely-scheduled feed.
  • Less downtime—Preventative alerts mean maintenance can be handled before failures occur.

With one system managing everything, barn operators spend less time adjusting settings and more time focusing on production.
