According to a report published on the National Bureau of Statistics website on September 4, 2019, monitoring of market prices for 50 important production materials in 9 categories in 24 provinces showed that the price of live pigs rose significantly, reaching 10.7%.
At a press conference held by the State Council Information Office on August 14, it was pointed out that pork prices have risen both year-on-year and month-on-month due to tight market supply. Relevant departments and local governments have successively taken a series of measures, such as expanding large-scale farming and activating price subsidy mechanisms, to ensure market supply.
In the current situation, promoting sustainable production and reducing losses in the pig industry have become essential conditions for improving production efficiency. Factors such as the pig's growing environment, a favorable indoor climate, precise automated feeding, and safe grain storage and transportation all relate to the profitability of modern livestock farming. LINAK, with 20 years of industry experience, has already provided mature and flexible electric actuator solutions.
What can LINAK electric linear actuators do for "pig life"?
Ventilation system and temperature control
The ventilation system in pigsties mainly regulates the temperature, airflow, and humidity of the air to ensure the health of livestock.
Taking swine fever, a long-standing problem in the pig farming industry, as an example, managing the hygiene and environment of pigsties is a key task in preventing and reducing the risk of swine fever. Increasing air circulation and scientifically controlling temperature and humidity are important, on the one hand, to prevent the proliferation of bacteria that could lead to a decline in pigs' immunity, and on the other hand, because temperature has a significant impact on pigs' physical condition. For example, adult pigs do not like high temperatures, while piglets are more sensitive to low temperatures. If the temperature is not within the range required for pig growth, it can cause various stresses in pigs, leading to a decline in immunity and various diseases.
Intake valve
The electrically adjustable air intake valve ensures that the climate conditions inside the pigsty are suitable for pig growth, thereby improving productivity and preventing diseases.
Ventilation deck
Depending on factors such as temperature, humidity, or vacuum, motorized actuators help to continuously open and close vents for air exchange.
Cover plate lifting machine
Piglets require a warmer growing environment than adult pigs. The push rod used to adjust the lid lifting device protects piglets from direct drafts.
Feed and grain storage and transportation
From transporting grain to the grain silo doors, diversion valves, and grain lifting systems in the silos, all can be achieved through electrified solutions.
● Easy to install with no risk of oil leaks, requires less maintenance, and is therefore more economical and energy-efficient.
● The intelligent feedback monitoring system enables precise positioning and control of the hatches (such as opening/closing, diverting, and mixing).
Automatic feeding
On large farms, controlling the quantity, type, and mixing of feed is complex and time-consuming because it requires customization of feed for specific animal conditions or different livestock. Linac electric actuators solve this problem by moving the feed valve and feed valve:
● Precise and optimized feed delivery with timely feedback; programmable and proportionally adjustable feed flow rate as needed.
●It's more worry-free, allowing livestock owners to have more time to care for and monitor the condition of their animals.

LINAK and Livestock Farming
For more than 20 years, Linac has been providing ventilation equipment manufacturers in the livestock industry around the world with maintenance-free products, long service life, and flexible customization solutions.
SKIOLD, a client, is a prime example. They commented on LINAK: "For SKIOLD, considering LINAK a trustworthy business partner is crucial. Our partnership has been highly beneficial and efficient in both development and business. Furthermore, LINAK continues to provide support and expertise after project completion."
Currently, SKIOLD has become one of the most respected partners in the fields of feed grinding, feed processing plants, pig farms, grain processing equipment, seed cleaning and grading.
"The new solution jointly developed by SKIOLD and Linac has the advantage of flexibility, thus meeting the needs of each end user. Without flexibility, it would be impossible to integrate ideas and experience into the product, ensure the interaction between different components, or form a complete climate solution."
