The Osborne Industries Weight Watcher Growth Management System automated pig weighing and sorting system uses an automated weigh scale to sort pigs by weight to enable target feeding. The system sorts market-ready hogs to cut sort losses and closely match packer’s matrixes. Pigs pass through the sorting scale as they move between feed and water areas and have free access to feed and water areas if an emergency occurs. The Weight Watcher Growth Management System gate automatically opens if the sort scale experiences less than normal activity in case of a system failure.
