The new Butler system
physically opens the stanchions
rather than merely releasing the
locks. Versatility is built into the
system since each stall has an
independent locking device that
can be kept locked or opened as
desired to allow greater control of
specific animals. Each stall
measures 4 foot wide and 4 foot x
SV« inches high from the top of the
curb to the underside of the top
rail. A quadruple-curve design
places the partition base 6 inches
farther away from the gutter
moisture zone than other designs.
Hot-dip galvanized pressed steel
water cups are also available for
use with the stalls.
Butler recently formed the
Livestock Systems operating unit.
The new company resulted from a
consolidation of Butler’s
Jamesway and Oswalt divisions.
Headquartered in Fort Atkinson,
the firm manufactures and
markets feed and manure handling
systems.
