Cow milking parlor and design

What type of milking parlor fits your needs?

Finding out what kind of milking parlour suits your needs is usually the first step in design. The choice of a milking system should be directly related to the number and herd of cows currently milked.

2. Think about the future

When thinking about buying a milking parlour , you need to consider your goals for the future. How will your herd be in 10 years? Will the herd expand? There are land restrictions on the number of cows you can keep in the future.

3. Optimal cow flow

The best way to design your milking parlour is to emphasize the excellent flow of the cows. Optimal flow is achieved with the proper layout. We need to focus on the constant movement of the cows to and from the milking parlor and ensure the comfort of cows when entering and leaving the milking parlour. Proper design is achieved when the cows stop less and thus manure less. If the flow of cows is not correct, it does not make sense to have the most expensive milking parlour. Cows do not like sharp turns, slippery floors or protruding objects. The size of the waiting area depends on the size of the herd and the type of milking parlour.

4. Automation option

The integration of automation plays a vital role in the efficiency of the milking parlour. There are different levels of automation that the producer can choose.

The most basic is the automatic cluster removal Hermes ACR system. Another great tool is the Aeolus service monitor reminds you when to repair the vacuum pump, always informs you about the new level, counts the milkings. It helps you maintain the maximum efficiency of the milking system. Then the integration of the automatic breast washing system gently washes and disinfects the cow’s breast speeds up the preparation process and increases the number of cows milked on time.

Building design

The milking parlor building must be built as an integral part of the stable. The primary function of the milking building is to provide facilities for milking and storing milk. Location is an essential factor in a dairy. The milking parlor must be in a place where there is a good flow of cows and the right direction of the wind and climate. Proper installation significantly reduces the risk of injury as they come out of the milking parlor.
