Tunnel OVILE for sheep and goats
With
the increase, in recent years, of sheep goat breeding, the demand for
structures and equipment suitable for developing this type of activity has also
increased.
Due A
Srl has therefore embarked on a specific training course, and has designed and
developed a line dedicated to goats and sheep.
The
first new proposal is the TUNNEL OVILE.
Starting
from the concept of tensile structure, now well known to us, we have created a
tunnel with vertical column and gable roof, with reduced height, and with the
possibility of applying multiple upgrading accessories.
This structure
has low costs, and could be used both in case of permanent breeding and as a
simple night shelter.
Like
all our tunnels, it consists of a hot-dip galvanized iron structure, anchoring
with pickets or plates, a high-strength PVC tarpaulin cover, and is in line
with current Italian and European regulations.
Tunnel
OVILE could be completed with fixed closures or sliding doors on the heads.
To
improve ventilation, especially in the hottest periods, we have created a
series of specific accessories:
–
Windows in net on the gable and polycarbonate fairing, which allow the hot air
to escape from the upper part of the tunnel
–
Side re-closable windows, which allow air and light to enter the entire length
of the structure
–
Side windbreaker networks: they replace the walls in canvas and allow the sides
of the structure to be completely opened
–
Application of fans for air exchange
To
protect the structure, wood panels have been set up in the part in contact with
the animals, which reduce the wear of the structural and covering elements.
In
addition to the tunnel we have designed the line of internal equipment: headlock
panels for animals with and without horns, tubes for feeding line, drinking
troughs, gates, fixed feeders and motorized feeders.
Each
internal setting is developed and designed in agreement with the customer,
according to specific needs.
