1. Introduction
Introduction
Cycle Plus Pan Feeder improves uniformity and feed conversion while reducing stressful in-house
migration and mortality. By running on a continuous cycle with a constantly ‘‘charged’’ line, the
Cumberland Cycle Plus Pan Feeder system eliminates ‘‘skips’’ in feed delivery, distributes feed evenly
and simultaneously to all pans on the line and assures equal access to feed for all birds...while generating
less feed separation than the typical programmed feeding system.

line, making sure the hoppers are filled before the feed line starts moving to prevent ‘‘skips’’ in the charged
line and unequal distribution to the pans. Control Panel Input: 50/60 Hz, 220 VAC, 1 Phase
