Yard Design Features
The SY115 yard plan is a safe and efficient yard plan. Designed for handling up to 115 head of cattle, with a traditional force pen, long curved race with cattle-free area and 3-way drafting module.
Holding Pens
The SY115 plan has 3 working pens designed to hold mobs of up to 30 head of cattle. The curved design of the pens helps to encourage cattle to flow from one pen to the next.
Traditional Forcing Pen
The traditional force pen requires the handler to be inside the cattle yard to operate it. It is a functional low-cost solution.
Curved Race with Catwalk
The curved race with 1.0m wide catwalk is a cattle-free area which makes inspecting cattle safer and easier. The catwalk is wide enough so that operators can easily pass each other without stepping down.
3-Way Drafting Module
The SY115 yard plan features a 3-way drafting module that is easy to operate via wire rope controls positioned at the rear of the crush. This allows one operator to draft cattle safely and easily.
Load-Out & Ramp
Positioned off the curved race the load-out race is accessed by an easy-to-use diverter gate. Our yard plans come with either a stepped loading ramp or a load-out module depending on what best suits your site.
Personnel Access Gates
Access gates throughout the cattle yard allow handlers to move around quickly and safely. These gates are placed strategically and come with anti-rattle slam latches, making them quick to open/close and quiet.
Anti-Rattle Slam Latches
Our anti-rattle slam latches have noise-reducing nylon bush inserts, easy-to-use handles, and a compact strike plate. The reduced noise helps keep the animals calm, and the compact design reduces the risk of injury.
