Wireless backing gates are an innovative new product from Engineering Solutions Ltd. Solar powered gates are available and all gates are custom built to suit a farm’s particular needs.
The Wireless Backing Gate operates on a low voltage 24VDC system powered by batteries that are charged by 3 large solar panels. This solar charging system will continue to power the backing gate even after a week or two of cloudy conditions. A radio transmitter in the dairy shed sends a signal to the backing gate for its different operations. The low voltage system used, along with the lack of a troublesome cable down the side of the yard means that any stray voltage issues that can be caused by backing gates is eliminated.
The backing gate has a steering system that will slow one side down while speeding the other up, thus causing the Wireless Backing Gate to track evenly down the yard. The main frame is a light weight yet extremely strong and robust. A cleverly designed clamping system means it is nearly impossible for the backing gate to come of the top rail of the yard. The Wireless Backing Gate can be used as a top gate bringing up small numbers of cows at a time, or as a dividing gate between two herds.
