PLT bunk management
The PLT Bunk Management System uses cameras and artificial intelligence to automate bunk reading, track feeding behavior, and recommend feed calls.
The system looks like this
Engineered for feedyard environments, it sends still images (not video) over WiFi to the cloud. Each unit covers about 200 ft (30 m) of bunk line.
This is where it is installed outdoors
The system is solar powered. It takes 5 minutes to mount the camera unit and solar panel to a 15 ft post.
This is where it is installed indoors
The unit can be mounted to a rafter above the bunk.

This is how it creates value
The PLT Bunk Management system takes the guesswork out of feed calling. It provides the objective, 24-hour data you need to optimize feeding decisions. It also uses the power of artificial intelligence to analyze hundreds of variables and make feeding recommendations based on your existing feeding strategy. In customer trials, it has reduced volatility and increased feed efficiency well in excess of what the system costs.
