JYGA Technologies Unveils a New Wireless Feed Bin Sensor
JYGA Technologies has launched a new product, the GESTAL L-Track. It gives farming industry players an accurate and effective solution to monitor in real time the level of feed in bins, allowing smarter and cost-effective inventory management, the company said.
The GESTAL L-Track is designed to give managers a practical, precise and cost-effective solution to manage feed bins for all types of production. This innovation should improve productivity, security and profitability of farm operations, the company said.
The Lefebvre family, pork producers and owner of JYGA Technologies, wanted to find an effective sensor on the market, at a competitive price point that needed little maintenance.
When the family couldn't find what they were looking for, the R&D team got to work to create a convenient, safe, and reliable product, the company said.
“The GESTAL L-Track is equipped with an advanced technology that uses a state-of-the-art sensor and a wireless connection to deliver precise data on the level of feed in bins. For us, it’s important to monitor in real time the feed level without having to perform hazardous manual measurements. On our farm, we really want to make sure that feed will be available for sows, without any interruption," said Alain Lefebvre, president of JYGA Technologies.
The company shared three key points about the new product in a release.
1. Quick & Easy Installation: The GESTAL L-Track has a heavy-duty magnet that allows it to be quickly secured onto the bin. The company offers an optional attachment for fiberglass bins, providing customers with versatile installation options. In addition, the sensor supports bins with a maximum height of 82 feet, accommodating a wide range of bin configurations.
2. Real Time Feed Monitoring: Managers can access precise level data by using the company's software, VISION. It allows users to stay connected and make informed decisions anytime, anywhere. The GESTAL L-Track acts as a tool to optimize delivery routes, ensuring smooth and precise transportation based on real-time feed-level information.
3. Safety First: At an affordable cost, the GESTAL L-Track is a safe solution. Equipped with a built-in wiper that automatically cleans the sensor, GESTAL L-Track ensures readings are accurate without the need for manual maintenance.
"There's no requirement to climb the bin for manual level checks anymore," the company said. Learn more here.
