Automated Sorting Devices for Broiler Breeder Rearing

Uniformity. Reduced Workload. Better Flock Management.

GRADY sorting machines support poultry operations in efficiently sorting flocks by weight – automated, precise, and animal-friendly. This provides the foundation for optimized feeding, synchronized start of lay, and improved overall flock performance.

Why Sorting Matters

Uniformity as the Key to Success

One of the most important indicators of rearing quality is flock uniformity. Only uniform flocks allow optimal flock management, including:

  • Adequate and needs-based feeding
  • Simultaneous start of lay
  • Higher laying performance level of the entire flock

Grading – sorting by weight, is a proven and indispensable tool for achieving this.

Efficient Sorting with GRADY

Fast, Precise, and Automated

GRADY automates this otherwise highly labor-intensive process using patented technology:

  • High-precision weighing of each individual bird
  • Sorting into up to three weight classes
  • Significant time and labor savings
  • Reproducible results with consistently high sorting quality

→ Achieve higher performance with significantly fewer staff

Sorting & Vaccination in One Step

Multifunctional & Animal-Friendly

GRADY can combine sorting and vaccination in a single process. This means birds only need to be handled once – saving time and minimizing the stress for the birds.

  • Optimal positioning of birds for vaccination
  • Patented fixation at the wing base
  • Free access to the breast for safe and precise breast vaccinations
  • Application of eye and wing vaccinations possible
  • Up to 6 vaccination positions (GRADY 4000)

→ Maximum efficiency with improved animal welfare at the same time.

Transparent Sorting Process

Digital Data Capture & Analysis

Each bird is weighed individually using a high-precision load cell and automatically documented:

  • Computer-controlled system with intuitive touchscreen
  • Pre-weighing for optimal group allocation
  • Recording of all individual bird weights
  • Automatic calculation of average weight & CV values
  • Data export via USB (Excel or PDF)

→ Full transparency and reliable decision-making data for your flock management.

Performance & Automation

  • Quick setup and dismantling with just two people

  • Hygienic construction made of stainless steel and aluminum

  • Easy to clean and disinfect

  • Up to 65% time savings through automation

  • High throughput depending on model
