Manure
Manure from feedlots, dairies and poultry sheds is wet and full of debris. FlipScreen screens it on site, producing a consistent product for spreading or composting.
Processing manure at the work site
Manure from feedlots, dairies and poultry sheds is wet and full of debris. FlipScreen screens it on site, producing a consistent product for spreading or composting.
Begin by identifying the fraction of manure you want to recover and where each output will go. A compatible FlipScreen attachment combines collection and size separation in the carrier’s working cycle, allowing the operator to place screened material and retained oversize into separate, planned areas.
Choosing a screen for manure
The selected mesh aperture determines which material passes through and which is retained. Match the screen and bucket configuration to the feed characteristics, the carrier’s capacity and the project requirements. A material trial is a practical way to assess the result before committing to a production workflow.
The moisture level and degree of breakdown influence the screening behaviour of manure. Check representative batches and keep finished material separate from incoming feed. Size separation does not establish maturity, hygiene or freedom from contamination; assess those requirements separately before sale, spreading or reuse.
Plan your manure screening setup
Provide the FlipScreen team with your carrier make and model, hydraulic specifications, expected feed size and the result you need from manure. Include the material’s condition and any site restrictions so a suitable attachment and screen configuration can be assessed. Plan stockpile positions and material movements before work begins to avoid mixing the separated fractions again.
Manure: screening advantages
How it works: Screen manure from stockpiles, pens or sheds to remove lumps, bedding and debris.
The result: Even spreading and faster composting.
Interchangeable screens: Swap screens for spreading-grade or bagged-grade manure. Screens change over quickly, so one bucket can make several products.
Better than the alternatives: Bringing a stationary screen to a farm is costly, and wet manure stalls shaker buckets. FlipScreen goes onto the excavator already there.
No set-up time: Couple up and start screening manure straight away, then move to the next stockpile or site the same day.
Brush kit for wet conditions: Rain or a wet stockpile doesn't stop the job. The brush kit clears the screen continuously while you screen manure.
Built to suit your machine: The Smart Valve system balances pressure and flow to match your excavator's hydraulics, giving smooth, controlled screening from the first bucket.
The payoff: Better nutrient distribution and a more marketable fertiliser.
