Hand Drafting System - 'U Draft'

Shearwell has developed a low cost drafting system based around the Psion Workabout Pro handheld unit. This unit connects, via Bluetooth, to a race reader such as the SDL130 and Bluetooth enabled earphones. As each animal enters the race, it is identified using its EID.

The handheld can be set up to direct each animal out of one of three gates based on any saved information such as animal breed, age, sex, breeding performance etc.

The handheld sends an audible instruction to the operator who controls manual gates in his existing race system to direct animals out of the appropriate gate.

This system enables you to draft out animals based on any saved criteria whilst not incurring the outlay costs of a fully automatic drafting system.

Automatic Drafting Systems

As for the hand drafting system described above, this equipment enables you to draft out animals based on any saved criteria in addition to drafting by the animals current weight. The 'in' gate and multiple 'out' gates are all fully controlled via pneumatics, providing the ultimate in automatic drafting.
