This model nowadays called "C3 type" is definitely the most suited for the 21st century poultry production as it optimizes the ratio between density and shed's volume thus best fulfilling the present days dimensional requirements. This typology is also suited for sheds where the manure can be removed periodically thus allowing a better control of the inside environmental conditions as it reduces the creation of flies. The simple installation required and lack of structural constrains makes it ideal for refurbishing of existing houses.     The "C3 type" is offered in 3 different models and various solutions to meet he most different needs and solutions:     The basic model without in cage manure drying facility [zoom drawing] is normally utilized in conjunction with an external manure drying system such as Facco's MDS (see relevant information in the dedicated section).   The solution with manure drying duct under the cage [zoom drawing] is ideal for moderate length sheds and allows to utilize the full cage depth. The special design with the duct all over the floor wire mesh grants a complete cleaning of the manure duct upper part done by the birds' feet.   The solution between the cages [zoom drawing] allows to reach up to 100 m length with one side only air blowing and 200 m with both sides air blowing. In this case the manure duct is also utilized as a drip saving device.       Difference comes out from the details ... Technical Data Brochure  :: Additional Systems   OFFICINE FACCO & C.
