About individual sow feed troughs
Each sow in a stall or crate eats from her own trough. Smooth edges protect her mouth, the volume must suit her ration and water, and the trough has to stay fixed yet clean easily. Feed drop and drinker positions are set together with the doser and water line.

Shapes for stalls and crates.
Fixed or tilting
Tilting troughs empty for cleaning.
