Three new technologies for improved efficiency and performance in poultry production environments are being introduced by Cumberland Poultry at the 2019 International Production & Processing Expo Feb. 12-14 in Atlanta.
EDGE Controller with scenario mode
Cumberland’s enhanced EDGE controller with new scenario mode makes temporary changes to environmental controls in poultry production facilities easy and efficient. Scenario mode allows a group of functions, such as fans, inlets and lights, to be temporarily reset by operators using a “virtual” switch without having to reprogram the controller. It can also be engaged by other poultry house employees, unfamiliar with the controller, simply by using a physical push button that activates predefined settings for a specific situation. In contrast, most control systems require employees to manually reset each environmental control individually, using individual buttons or switches, and then manually turn them off to return to standard settings.
