Product overviewThe GEVILIB is designed to allow transition from insemination to gestation without moving animals. A collective controller operates the rear gate to select different functional positions for each feeding station.
Rear gate positions- FREE: The gate swings; sows can enter and exit freely.
- FEEDING: The sow can enter the feeding station but cannot leave at will.
- BLOCKED: The sow can neither enter nor exit.
- STALL: The gate is locked inside the feeding station, making the GEVILIB operate as a traditional stall.
GEVILIB AIR (new)An evolution of the GEVILIB controlled by a pneumatic actuator to centralize and automate opening/closing of feeding stalls. Key added advantages include:
- Centralized control of all feeding stations simultaneously.
- Reduced manual effort for operating refectories.
- Automation of door opening before meals for zootechnical benefits.
- Reduced competition thanks to synchronized triggering of the liquid feeding system.
- Preservation of forward-flow management by limiting movements in the gestation area when adjusting GEVILIB positions (favorable to biosecurity).
- Optimization of time spent on husbandry since animals are already at feeders when staff arrive.
Advantages- Collective controller to operate all feeding stations simultaneously.
- Possibility to isolate a single feeding station to separate a sow.
- Transition from insemination to gestation without moving animals.
- Raised trough at the rear for improved air circulation, allowing the sow to breathe easily even when lying down.
Description / construction details- Reinforced lower railings to prevent injuries to the sow.
- Trough higher at the rear to limit feed waste and facilitate cleaning.
- Upper railings reinforced with two bars above the sow.
- Hygienic, durable and anti-corrosion stainless-steel feet.

- Function: transitional stall allowing insemination → gestation without moving animals.
- Rear gate: 4 operational positions (FREE, FEEDING, BLOCKED, STALL).
- Control: collective controller to actuate rear gate positions; optional pneumatic actuator for GEVILIB AIR variant.
- Trough: raised at rear to reduce feed waste and improve hygiene.
- Safety: reinforced lower railings to prevent injuries; upper railings reinforced with two bars.
