About hm400

The farmermobil^® hm400 is a fully mobile poultry housing system that is designed for 400 or 465 broilers in organic or free-range farming systems.

This mobile housing system is operated by its own state-of-the-art computer. It is constructed and fully equipped to enable self-sufficient operation. A height-adjustable waterline with a water tank in the vehicle provides water to the animals. Feeding from a feed silo with a tubular chain conveyor is possible as an option. The housing system computer controls the lights and automatically opens and closes the outdoor access flaps through a time-based program.

The entire housing system runs on 24 V. The energy required is supplied by batteries in the vehicle which are charged via a 230 V connection. Optionally, a photovoltaic system can be installed on the roof to charge the batteries. The hm400 is delivered completely assembled and ready for immediate use. The mobile broiler housing system has a permanently installed chassis, making it roadworthy and fully mobile. This facilitates easy moving, allowing optimum use of the available pasture and avoiding any excessive input of nutrients into the soil.
