Automatic, scheduled feeding
Set times, portions and duration on the timer or PLC — unattended feeding that frees up farm labour.
Feeding machines
Feed the whole pond on schedule, automatically — a timer/PLC-controlled automatic fish feeder that broadcasts pellets evenly over the water with an adjustable hopper, feed rate and throw distance, cutting labour and feed waste while improving growth uniformity in ponds, cages and tanks.

System composition
Even broadcast coverage
The spinner or blower throws pellets several metres across the pond so fish grow uniformly and weak feeders are not crowded out.
Precise dosing cuts waste
Metered feed delivery reduces over-feeding and waste, keeps water cleaner and improves FCR.
Floating and sinking pellets
Handles both pellet types across common sizes — fish and shrimp duty alike.
Solar option for off-grid farms
Battery and solar power suit cages and remote ponds without mains electricity.
Sizes for every farm
From small pond/cage feeders to large blower units for commercial farms, with weatherproof housings throughout.
Application
- Scaled feeding of tilapia, catfish and carp in ponds and lined tanks
- Fixed-point feeding on floating cage walkways
- Sinking shrimp-feed dosing in shrimp ponds
- High-density RAS and lined-tank systems
- Off-grid remote farm sites with the solar option
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
How does an automatic fish feeder work?
Load the hopper and set the schedule; a timer or PLC controller sets feeding times, portion size and run duration, and a vibrating or rotating-disc mechanism meters pellets while a blower or spinner throws them several metres for even coverage.
Does an automatic feeder reduce feed waste?
Yes — because feed is dosed precisely, over-feeding and waste drop, water quality stays cleaner and FCR improves, while fish grow uniformly.
Can the fish feeder be solar-powered?
Yes — models can be powered by mains, battery or solar, with weatherproof housings for outdoor duty.
Does it handle both floating and sinking pellets?
Yes — the feeder handles floating and sinking pellets across common sizes and mounts on pond banks, cage walkways or tank rims.
