Cluster Removers

Cluster Remover accurately and consistently monitors the flow of milk during milking. When milking is finished, vacuum is removed and the cluster is detached from the cow.

The ram is constructed using stainless steel which ensures maximum durability and reliability. Easy adjustment of all ACR settings is possible from the milk meter or PC. The ACR incorporates a remove override function. A restart facility is provided which allows the meter to be restarted should a cluster be inadvertently be kicked off or removed.
It is the only cluster remover that can monitor flow in two milk lines and allows milk to be diverted at the touch of a button. Smart Start means that the cluster is released and vacuum is applied when the operator touches a button. The ACR gently removes the cluster from the cow. Vacuum is removed from the claw before the ram is activated.

Variable Speed Pumps

The Variflo+ provides efficient cooling and gentle milk transport as it responds to the level of milk in the receiver and controls the water flow through the cooling system.  Milk flow into the receiver varies both throughout the year and during milking. Variable speed milk pumping is used when optimum cooling and gentle milk transport is required. The plate cooler is utilized 3 to 4 times more when compared to typical milk pump controls.

The height of milk in the receiver is measured and the output of the milk pump is matched to the cumulative quantity of milk in the receiver jar. This system ensures the pump speed increases as the milk level increases. When the milk level is low, the pump speed is reduced. The cooling water supply can be switched off by a solenoid when the milk pump is inactive. The result is a controlled milk flow through plate coolers and gentler milk handling with less water usage.

Plant washers

The Auto Plant Wash is a simple and easy to use wash controller that washes the parlour automatically after each milking. It provides more consistent and efficient cleaning using less chemical than manual washing irrespective of the operator. The system is programmable and it’s versatility provides an excellent wash to any type of small to medium size milking parlour.

Sump/Pump
Washdown

Effluent generated from dairy sheds and feedpads may include a variety of solids besides manure. These include such things as sticks, cow hair, grain, straw, farm debris, wire, gravel, sand, syringes and string.

These objects should be removed from the effluent as they can damage pumps, block pipes and unnecessarily increase the rate of siltation in ponds, thereby reducing the effective storage capacity.
