Sorting Panel

Guide pigs through alleys and gates with less stress; rigid yet lightweight boards help block vision and create clear lanes.
Micro-spec: brand-new PE construction; size options (S/M/L) with integrated hand grips.

Tail Cutter (Heated)

Heated dockers speed hemostasis and produce a clean, consistent cut in early-life procedures under farm protocol.
Micro-spec: stainless head; ~220 V, ~150 W; quick heat-up; serviceable design.

Pig Paddles / Prodders

Paddles cue movement via sight/sound; electric prodders reserved for exceptions and trained staff to reduce welfare risks.
Micro-spec: rattle-head paddles in common lengths (e.g., ~105 cm / ~41 in); sealed electric prodders with rechargeable battery.
Note: Use electric prodders only by trained staff and according to local welfare regulations.

Drench Guns

Adjustable-dose drenchers with clear scales for efficient oral dosing—durable bodies and bite-resistant nozzles.
Micro-spec: bottle-mount or tube-draw; typical ranges 5–30/50 ml; metal nozzle options.

AI (Artificial Insemination) Products

Semen containers and catheters sized for common programs; tip varieties support sow/cervical preferences.
Micro-spec: bottles/bags (≈40–100 ml); foam/spiral/deep catheters in multiple lengths.

Syringes

From self-filling and metal repeaters to TPX/PC and sterile single-use; stainless needles across key gauges.
Micro-spec: auto self-filling / metal / disposable; SS needles in multi-gauge lengths.

Supplier-Ready Specs & Options

Sorting Panel

PE (non-toxic, impact-resistant); sizes S/M/L; rounded edges; integrated hand holes; easy-wash surfaces.

Tail Cutter (Heated)

Stainless cutting head; ~220 V, ~150 W; rapid warm-up; stable balance; replaceable consumables; easy wipe-down.

Pig Paddles / Prodders

Paddles: LDPE/PE blow-mold head with rattle; lengths for alleys/handlers; textured handle.
Electric prodders: sealed electronics; typical 60–95 cm rods; rechargeable Li battery; safety switches.

Drench Guns

Adjustable dose bodies with clear window; metal or reinforced polymer; bottle-top or tube intake; check-valve anti-drip; metal nozzle.

AI Products

Semen bottles (≈40/60/80/100 ml, PP cap / LDPE body) and bags (≈80/100 ml); catheter tips—foam, spiral, deep-insemination; materials (PVC/PP/PE/EVA) by program.

Syringes

Self-filling repeaters; metal-body syringes 5–100 ml; TPX/PC 10–50 ml; continuous injectors; sterile single-use; SS needles from fine to heavy gauges.

Selection & Use — Quick Guide

Welfare-first handling: prefer paddles/boards for routine movement; keep electric prodders for exceptional cases and trained staff.
Procedure timing: align tail docking and early-life tasks to your local guidance and farm SOP (timing, hygiene, analgesia policy).
Accurate dosing: match syringe/drencher to dose range and throughput; keep clear, labeled tools to avoid cross-contamination.
AI hygiene: select container + catheter by protocol and tip preference; maintain sterile handling and disposal steps.
Cleaning & longevity: choose smooth, non-absorbent surfaces; rinse and dry before storage; replace worn tips/needles promptly.

Artificial Insemination Rods Tube for pig

What to Send for a Fast Proposal

Handling: sorting-panel size (S/M/L) and qty; paddle length; need for electric prodders (rod length/battery preference).
Procedures: tail-cutter voltage; daily batch size; drench-gun material (metal/polymer), intake type (bottle/tube), and dose range.
AI supplies: container type (bottle/bag) and volume (≈40–100 ml); catheter type (foam/spiral/deep) and length.
Syringes: self-filling/metal/disposable/continuous; target needle gauge/length.
Docs & delivery: branding/packaging, inspection/QC records if required, target ship date and terms.

Matched kits & shipping: consolidate SKUs across handling, dosing, and AI to reduce freight and simplify reorders.

FAQs

When should I use paddles vs electric prodders?

Use sorting panels/paddles for routine movement; reserve electric prodders for exceptions and trained personnel in line with welfare rules.

Are heated tail cutters better than cold tools?

Heated heads help hemostasis and produce cleaner cuts when procedures are performed under approved protocols and hygiene steps.

How do I choose a drench gun size?

Match adjustable range to your medication and bodyweight groups (e.g., 5–30 ml for smaller animals, larger bodies for higher volumes); metal nozzles resist bites.

Which AI catheter tip should I select—foam, spiral, or deep?

Foam suits many cervical programs; spiral tips engage the cervix; deep-insemination tools serve specialized protocols. Choose by SOP and technician preference.

What syringe type fits repeated dosing?

Self-filling or metal repeaters support volume work; single-use syringes suit sterility-critical tasks. We’ll match needles by gauge/length to weight class and injection site guidance.

Can these tools be used across species?

Many items (drenchers, syringes, some AI consumables) are multi-species. Confirm sizes/needles and protocols with your veterinarian.
