About Hanen Automatic Cattle and Livestock Feeders

Hanen Automatic Solar-Powered Cattle and Livestock Feeders are proudly manufactured by Service Line, Inc., located in Reedsburg, Wisconsin.

The Hanen feeder was the idea of Dave Barney, President of Service Line, Inc., who saw firsthand the challenges of daily livestock chores. What started as a hobby in livestock farming quickly turned into a mission to make feeding more efficient and nutritious for his animals. With decades of experience in equipment manufacturing, and an understanding of solar technology, Dave brought this innovative, solar-powered automatic feeder to life.

In addition to Hanen feeders, Service Line, Inc. also manufactures Renegade Parts Washers and Detergents, for industrial washing applications. But no matter what we’re building, the goal is the same: provide long-lasting solutions that help you get the job done.

When you choose a Hanen feeder, you’re not just buying a product—you’re getting a reliable partner dedicated to making your workday easier and your operation more efficient. We’re proud to be part of your farm’s success.

The Meaning Behind Our Name and Logo

Hanen

Derived from the Finnish word for “His,” the name “Hanen” honors both our founder Dave Barney’s strong Finnish heritage and his deep faith. The name signifies that all our work is dedicated to the Lord, acknowledging that everything we do is ultimately for Him.

Alpha and Omega Symbol

The Alpha and Omega, incorporated into the ‘A’ of “Hanen,” is a profound symbol of our belief in God—the beginning and the end, the one who is, who was, and who is to come. This emblem serves as a reminder that our work is done with a higher purpose in mind.

As 1 Corinthians 10:31 reminds us…

Whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God.
