Automatic H-Type Layer Cage Project in Ambato, Tungurahua, Ecuador: 40,448 Hens House Layout

Automatic H-Type Layer Cage Project in Ambato, Tungurahua, Ecuador: 40,448 Hens House Layout

Project Engineering Background & Verified Regional Location

This commercial poultry project is situated in Ambato, Tungurahua Province, Ecuador (Ecuador's Premier Egg Production Capital). Designed and manufactured by Zhengzhou Shuohui Husbandry Equipment Co., Ltd. (originally founded in 2005 as Xingyang Jianghai Machinery Factory), this turnkey installation accommodates 40,448 Commercial Laying Hens. All equipment engineering strictly follows factory structural standards, utilizing heavy Q235B cold-drawn steel wire treated with certified hot-dip galvanization (minimum 275 g/m² zinc coating mass) to ensure an operational service life of 15 to 20+ years.

"Before installing Shuohui’s H-type system in Ambato, manual egg collection across 40,000 hens required six laborers and had a 4.2% crack rate. With Shuohui’s automated longitudinal belts and 1.7 m/min egg elevator, one operator handles collection with egg breakage held strictly under 0.38%."

System Specifications & Factory Equipment Bill of Quantities (BOQ)

Shuohui's engineering department developed a customized CAD building floorplan tailored to the 12.0m (W) × 105.0m (L) × 4.2m (H) — Net cage line 95m + 10m equipment buffer. Key technical parameters and factory bill of quantities include:

  • Cage System & Model: 4-Tier H-Type Vertical Battery Cage (HFCD401A, 80 kg/set)
  • Cell Dimensions & Stocking Density: 1200mm (L) × 1200mm (D) × 680mm (H), 32 birds per tier, 128 birds per 4-tier set
  • Shed Building Geometry & Clear Height: 12.0m (W) × 105.0m (L) × 4.2m (H) — Net cage line 95m + 10m equipment buffer. Required building clear height: 4.2m shed clear eave height (machine height 3.31m).
  • Cage Rows & Unit Allocation: 4 cage rows × 79 sets per row = 316 sets × 128 birds = 40,448 birds
  • Manure Removal & Egg Conveyor Systems: Continuous multi-tier PP manure belts (1.5kW @ 1.1m/min, Φ150mm drum) + longitudinal egg belts (0.75kW @ 1.7m/min) + cross manure conveyor (1.5kW) + inclined truck loader (1.5kW)
  • Automated Feeding & Watering: Automated travelling hopper feed carts (0.75kW @ 4-6 m/min). Drinking lines equipped with 360° cone valve stainless steel nipples, dedicated pressure regulators, and medicators.

Climate Control & Biosecurity Engineering

To protect flock health and maintain peak feed conversion efficiency under local climatic conditions, the installation integrates an intelligent environmental controller (such as our iEC1680 system with real-time 3D house monitoring). Negative pressure tunnel ventilation maintains static pressure at a stable 20 to 25 Pa, drawing air across 150mm thick high-efficiency evaporative cooling pads to achieve a wind-chill velocity of 2.2 to 2.6 m/s at bird level. This guarantees zero thermal dead spots across all cage tiers while keeping in-house ammonia concentrations strictly under 10 ppm.
