Description

A-50 Corral

A compact configuration for everyday operations: vaccination, ear-tagging, weighing, selection and sorting. Entry gates can be placed anywhere along the outer boundary, and the exit offers two-way sorting. Capacity is calculated by floor area: ≈2 m² per head (reference for a ~450 kg cow). Comfortable at 55, maximum up to 80 head — it depends on breed, weight and temperament.

Dimensions and areas (A-50 layout from the manual)

• Outer corral perimeter: ≈16.2 m × 12.7 m (reference from the assembly plan).
• Working side of the alley: ≈9.0 m (per the assembly diagram).
• Holding pen: ~115 m² (reference for ~55 head).
• Sorting pen: ~55 m² (reference for ~25 head).

Note: actual dimensions/angles depend on the specific panels and site layout.

A-50 bill of materials (from the spec)

• Panels: PNL-3.0 — 3.0 m, 17 pcs.
• Gates: FG-2.5-3.0 — 2.5 m leaf / 3.0 m frame, 5 pcs.
• Equipment:
  • AUR 340 — sliding alley gate — 1 pc.
  • AUR 341 — 2.5 m working alley — 1 pc.
  • AUR 860 — chute — 1 pc.

Key advantages

• Two-way sorting at the exit of the working alley.
• Free placement of entry gates along the perimeter — convenient for any site and terrain.
• Modular: just add panels to gain more space and more work scenarios.
• Mobile system: fast setup/teardown and transport between pastures.

Safety and operation

• Calculate capacity at 2 m²/head; do not overload sections.
• Watch for “pockets” and sharp angles when reconfiguring the layout.
• Adjust aisle widths for calves and bulls.
