Portable Slurry Mixing for Slatted Buildings: The Landia POD Trolley Mixer

Effective slurry mixing plays a huge role in day-to-day efficiency on livestock farms—particularly in slatted agricultural buildings, where slurry flow, consistency, and access can all be challenging. The Landia POD Trolley Mixer has been developed to address these exact issues, combining high-performance slurry agitation with the major advantage of easy portability between buildings.

For farms with multiple sheds or slurry pits, it offers a flexible, practical approach to slurry management without the need for multiple fixed installations.

Designed for Efficient Slurry Mixing in Slatted Agricultural Buildings

The Landia POD Trolley mixer is engineered to deliver thorough, reliable slurry mixing, keeping solids in suspension and preventing settlement at the bottom of pits and channels. This is particularly important in slatted cattle and pig buildings, where poorly mixed slurry can lead to:

• Blocked or slow-running slurry channels

• Inconsistent slurry when pumping or spreading

• Increased time spent agitating before emptying

  
  

By creating a strong, controlled flow pattern, the POD Trolley mixer breaks down crusts and re-suspends settled material, producing a uniform slurry that moves more freely through channels and into reception pits.

A Portable Slurry Mixer That Works Across the Whole Site

One of the key reasons the Landia POD Trolley mixer stands out is its portability.

Mounted on a robust trolley frame, the mixer can be easily moved between buildings, allowing one unit to service multiple slurry pits across the farm. This is especially valuable for farms with:

• Several slatted livestock buildings

• Separate internal slurry channels and reception pits

• A desire to reduce capital spend while maintaining performance

Instead of installing a fixed slurry mixer in every shed, the POD Trolley mixer provides a mobile slurry mixing solution that can be deployed exactly where it’s needed.

What Farmers Are Saying: Real Benefits on the Ground

Feedback from customers has been consistently positive, particularly from farms operating slatted pig buildings.

Many users report that the efficiency of the Landia POD Trolley mixer has made a noticeable difference to both slurry handling and daily workload. One recurring point of feedback is how effectively the slurry is mixed within the channels:

“Since using the POD Trolley mixer, when we pull the bungs in the slurry channels, the slurry runs freely into the reception pit and nearly empties the channel every time. It’s made slurry handling far less stressful.”

Other customers highlight improvements in both efficiency and quality of life on the farm:

“Mixing time is significantly reduced, and pumping is far smoother. We’re not fighting settled solids anymore.”

“Being able to move the mixer between buildings has been a game-changer. One unit now does the job of several older mixers.”

This combination of effective mixing and portability has helped many farmers save time, reduce labour, and gain greater confidence when emptying slurry systems.

Motor Options to Suit Different Slurry Conditions

To ensure the mixer can be matched to a wide range of slurry types and pit sizes, the Landia POD Trolley mixer is available with four motor sizes:

• 2.2 kW – ideal for lighter slurry and smaller pits

• 5.5 kW – a versatile option for general slurry mixing

• 7.5 kW – suited to thicker slurry and higher demand

• 11 kW – maximum performance for heavy slurry and larger volumes

  
  

Correct motor selection helps ensure efficient agitation without unnecessary energy use.

Standard and Custom Mast Lengths for Every Building

The POD Trolley mixer is supplied with two standard mast lengths:

• Short mast: 2.3 metres

• Long mast: 3.0 metres

  
  

Because slurry pits and buildings vary so widely, AGVANCED UK can also cut the mast length to suit specific building layouts and pit depths. This ensures optimal propeller positioning and effective mixing, even in shallow or restricted pits commonly found in older slatted sheds.

A Practical, Flexible Slurry Mixing Solution

By combining efficient slurry mixing, site-wide portability, and customisable options, the Landia POD Trolley mixer offers a proven solution for modern slurry management—particularly in slatted agricultural buildings.

If you’re looking to improve slurry flow, reduce blockages, and make slurry handling easier across multiple buildings, the Landia POD Trolley mixer is well worth considering.For more information or to discuss suitability for your buildings, getting in touch for an informal conversation can often be the best place to start.
