Flagship product spotlight: The weigh crate with neck clamp and scale
Among their wide range of livestock handling solutions, one product stands out for its impact on productivity and accuracy: the Weigh Crate with Neck Clamp and Scale.
Designed with both farmer and animal in mind, this system allows producers to weigh, restrain, and inspect livestock safely and efficiently, all in one place. The integrated neck clamp ensures the animal stands securely, reducing movement and minimising stress, crucial for both livestock welfare and accurate measurements.
Key benefits for South African farmers
- Accurate weight recording
Whether for dosing and vaccinations, marketing, performance monitoring, or feed management, knowing an animal’s exact weight is essential. The scale provides precise readings, helping farmers make informed decisions.
- Safer handling for livestock
The neck clamp is engineered to hold animals securely without causing discomfort. Reduced movement means fewer injuries, less stress, and better overall handling results.
- Improved efficiency
With weighing and restraining happening simultaneously, farmers save time. One operator can safely manage the animal, speeding up routine checks and health procedures.
- Manufactured in South Africa for South African farmers
Manufactured locally, using durable mild steel and high-quality welds, the weigh crate is designed to withstand rough environments and heavy workloads commonly found on local farms.
- Customisation options
Every farming operation is unique. Steel Tube & Pipe Profiles can adjust crate dimensions, clamp settings, and additional features to suit different livestock and handling facilities.
