The operation of feeding systems plays a central role in modern pig farming. However, users in the barn still have reservations about using complex software solutions - partly because international teams sometimes find it difficult to understand the language. In some cases, some employees should only be able to control certain work areas with authorisations. With the help of the Pig Planner user interface from WEDA Dammann & Westerkamp, new, user-friendly paths are now being taken. The innovation ensures that users can make virtually no more mistakes and that operation is simpler and more efficient, as both the control panel and the language are customised.
Challenges of previous software solutions
Traditional feeding software is often complex and therefore intimidating for those employees who do not regularly work with these systems. This leads to uncertainties and potential operating errors and can have a negative impact on the safety and efficiency of feeding processes.
The solution: Pig Planner
With the Pig Planner, WEDA offers a simple user interface that is designed to make everyday work in the pigsty easier. Customisable image and function assignments in the national language of each employee make operation intuitive and user-friendly.
Employees receive their own icon
The functionality of the Pig Planner can be customised: Each employee receives a menu with their own customised operating options. These can be assigned appropriate authorisations by the supervisor. Each employee in the barn is assigned their own icon to create a personalised control panel on the screen. The icon is identified by name and colour, which makes operation even clearer.
Display automatically switches to the national language
Similar to a smartphone, the customised control panel opens by clicking on the icon. This makes using the software simple and intuitive. The display is multilingual: by selecting the icon, the display automatically switches to the national language of the respective employee, making the operating process even easier to understand.
More efficiency and safety
With the customised Pig Planer user interface, WEDA not only makes the day-to-day work of employees easier, but also increases the efficiency and safety of the entire system. Pig Planer makes operating feeding systems child’s play and is an indispensable tool for modern and successful pig farming.
The advantages of the Pig Planner at a glance:
- Simple operation: The intuitive user interface reduces the familiarisation period and reduces the error rate during operation.
- Customisation: Each function can be individually adapted to the needs and responsibilities of employees, which increases efficiency and satisfaction.
- Time saving: The simple and fast operation optimises employees’ working time.
- Increased safety: The user-friendly interface minimises the risk of operating errors - which increases the safety of the system.
- Multilingualism: Automatic language customisation facilitates use for international teams and ensures better communication in the barn.
