The usage of a day-old baby chicken truck is highly specialized because newborn chicks are "poikilothermic," meaning they cannot regulate their own body temperature for the first few days of life. These trucks act as mobile incubators to ensure the chicks survive the journey from the hatchery to the farm without losing their "genetic potential" for growth.
Insulation: Uses high-density polyurethane (PU) foam (usually 80mm thick) sandwiched between FRP (Fiberglass Reinforced Plastic) panels. This prevents the outside weather from affecting the internal temp.
Easy Clean Panels: The interior is made of smooth fiberglass or stainless steel to allow for high-pressure chemical disinfection (critical for bio-security).
Hydraulic Tail Lift: Many models include a 1.5-ton hydraulic lift at the back to safely load and unload delicate stacks of chick boxes.
A HOWO chick truck is equipped with three redundant systems to keep the birds alive:Cooling: Often uses Thermo King or Carrier refrigeration units. Unlike food trucks, these are modified to provide high-volume airflow.Heating: A diesel-powered independent heater (or water-cycle heating from the engine) is used for cold weather or nighttime transport.Ventilation: * Electric Fans: Multiple fans are mounted on the roof and rear to pull fresh air in and push CO2 out.Manual Louvers: Sliding "blind windows" on the sides can be opened for natural air if the mechanical systems fail.Air Ducts: Floor-mounted ducts ensure air reaches the bottom of the stacks.
Real-time Monitoring: A digital screen showing temperature and humidity from sensors placed at the front, middle, and rear of the cargo box.Alarms: If the CO2evel rises too high or the temperature fluctuates more than ±1°C, an alarm sounds in the cab.
Chick Truck: The most widely used informal name in the industry.
Day-Old Chick Transport Vehicle: The formal name used by manufacturers and logistics companies.
Hatchery Truck: Refers to the truck owned by a hatchery to deliver chicks to farms.
Climate-Controlled Poultry Van: A technical term emphasizing that the truck has built-in heating and ventilation systems.
Live-Haul Truck: Typically used for adult birds, but often used as a broad term for any truck carrying live poultry.
Chick Delivery Van: Often used for smaller models that can be driven with a standard license.
Thermostatic Transport Vehicle: A name common in international manufacturing (especially in Asia and Europe) for trucks with constant temperature control.
Chikan Van: A regional term occasionally used in parts of India and South Asia.
The Target: The air inside the chick boxes is usually kept between 32°C and 35°C
Heating/Cooling: Trucks use high-powered HVAC systems. In winter, they provide heat; in summer, they use powerful refrigeration and fans to prevent "heat stress," which is the leading cause of death during transport.
Laminar Airflow: Specialized trucks use "laminar airflow" technology to force air through the stacks of boxes rather than just around them. This ensures chicks in the middle of the truck don't suffocate or overheat.Monitoring: Drivers monitor CO2 levels from the cabin. If levels exceed 500–600 ppm, the system automatically increases fresh air intake.
HOWO 4X2 4M Poultry/Livestock Constant Temperature Truck is a specialized vehicle built on the Sinotruk HOWO light truck chassis. Due to variations in manufacturers (who modify the chassis) and market specifications, the exact technical sheet can vary
| Feature | Small (Light Duty) | Large (Heavy Duty) |
| Chassis | HOWO Light | HOWO G5X or TX |
| Engine | 110hp – 130hp (4-cylinder) | 160hp – 290hp (6-cylinder) |
| Payload Capacity | 1 – 5 Tons | 10 – 15 Tons |
| Chick Capacity | ~20,000 – 30,000 chicks | ~50,000 – 70,000+ chicks |
| Box Length | 4.2 meters | 6.8 – 9.2 meters |
| Feature | Detail/Specification | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| Sandwich Body Construction | Inner and outer layers of FRP (Fiber Reinforced Plastic) or Aluminum Alloy, with a core of high-density Polyurethane (PU) Foam. | Provides excellent thermal insulation, achieving the equivalent of a National Class A refrigerated box. PU foam prevents rapid temperature fluctuation. |
| Material | Often uses Aluminum Alloy frame and components (especially for piglet transport). | Reduces curb weight, prevents rust and corrosion, and is easy to clean and sanitize. |
| Interior Finish | Smooth, non-porous interior surfaces (FRP/Stainless Steel). | Facilitates thorough cleaning and disinfection, crucial for disease control. |
| Multi-Layer Racks (Optional) | For poultry (chicks/ducklings), the interior is configured with multi-level (e.g., 3 to 5 layers) storage racks/cages. | Maximizes the loading capacity for small animals (e.g., 50,000+ day-old chicks). |
| System | Detail/Specification | Purpose |
| Temperature Control Unit | Dual-System: Includes a dedicated Refrigeration Unit (e.g., Thermo King, Carrier) and an independent Fuel-Powered Heater (e.g., Webasto-type). | The unit can both cool in hot weather and heat in cold weather, ensuring a constant temperature (typically 10∘C−20∘C). |
| Ventilation System | Forced Air Circulation: Multiple electric ventilation fans, air inlets on the front (near the cab), and regulated exhaust outlets. T-shaped air ducts (plenums) may run the length of the ceiling. | Ensures uniform temperature distribution to all corners and layers; crucial for providing fresh air and removing carbon dioxide, ammonia, and excess heat/moisture generated by the animals. |
| Monitoring System | Temperature/Humidity Sensors and Recorder: Digital displays in the cab and data loggers. | Allows the driver to monitor and adjust climate settings in real-time, and provides a record of transport conditions for quality assurance. |
| Feature | Detail/Specification | Purpose |
| Hydraulic Tail Lift | Hydraulic Loading Platform mounted at the rear door. | Greatly simplifies and speeds up the loading and unloading of crates (poultry) or individual pens (piglets), reducing labor intensity and stress on the animals. |
| Watering/Spray System | Integrated water tank, pump, and interior spray nozzles/drinking spouts. | For Piglets/Larger Livestock: Provides on-demand drinking water. For all animals: Can mist or spray water for cleaning or to help lower the temperature through evaporation in an emergency. |
| Sanitation/Drainage | Sloped floor with internal drainage outlets. | Facilitates the quick and complete removal of waste and cleaning fluids, essential for bio-security. |
| Power Supply | Independent battery or small generator (optional) for running the constant temperature and ventilation systems while the main truck engine is off. | Guarantees environmental control during stops or in emergenci |
