Automatic Calf Feeder setup

[HarryB97]

We are looking to change our current feeding system to a fully automated machine to cut down on cleaning time as we currently have 2 heatwaves and 3 JFC mixers. We want to keep using out existing setup as it works well but are not sure about the drainage. How much waste water do these automated feeders produce from teat and pipe cleaning etc in a day? We would be feeding 40 calves at a time.

We have Forster Technics ours just wash the mixing bowl They are set to wash themselves twice a day one of the machines is'nt near a drain so we have a 25l drum to catch the waiste and empty it every couple of days 40 calves
