Abstract: For dairy cattle total mixed ration (TMR) feeding technology is the inevitable requirement of modern ranch, It was proposed that a ranch batching system based on weighing instrument, to achieve the production process of dairy cattle feed ingredients section of the fully automated production. Depend on the requirement of field process, the weighing instrument called ID510 is the ingredients and control core for the system, to realize the realization automated weighing ingredients for production equipment; write the PC code by using C++ Builder 6.0 to go through the human-computer interaction that used serial communication between weighing instrument and the upper computer. It could display the ingredient data by using Ethernet communication by UDP (user datagram protocol) between PC and screen monitor. It could realize management of recipes, ingredient monitoring, statistical report forms,historical data inquiry function by compiling ACCESS database. In actual batching process, the batching system running stability, friendly interface, the function indexes of the control system can satisfy the requirements of process, has obtained the good application effect.
