Rotary Milking Parlors for Goats & Sheep

Rotary milking parlors are a game-changing solution for today’s goat and sheep farms. As labor becomes harder to find, time gets tighter, and production costs rise, farmers need smarter tools to stay competitive. If you’re looking to cut down on labor, speed up milking, and boost your farm’s output, rotary milking systems offer a proven path forward. At Agromasters, we build rotary milking parlors using premium materials — designed to withstand tough farm environments and meet the real demands of modern dairy operations.

What Are Rotary Milking Parlors for Goats and Sheep?

A rotary milking parlor is a state-of-the-art milking system where animals (goats or sheep) stand on a rotating platform. The platform moves at a steady, calm pace, bringing animals to the operator without causing stress or disturbance. This allows the milker to focus entirely on the milking process without wasting time on unnecessary movement. The result is a system that enables you to fully harness your herd’s potential—with less labor and in less time.

Key Advantages of Rotary Milking Systems for Small Ruminants

1. Maximum Efficiency & Speed

Efficiency is the standout benefit of rotary parlors. The platform’s continuous flow allows multiple animals to be milked simultaneously, eliminating downtime. Operators stay in one place while animals rotate through, streamlining the process. Compared to traditional parlors that operate in groups with frequent start-stop cycles, rotary systems save significant time.

2. Lower Labor Costs with Rotary Milking Systems

Rotary parlors require fewer staff members to operate—just one or two milkers can handle an entire session, regardless of the parlor’s size. In contrast, rapid-exit or swing-over parlors often need more hands. Additionally, rotary systems demand less infrastructure, reducing your overall investment. For example, an 18-position rotary setup only needs a 5×5 meter area.

3. Better Animal Welfare and Comfort

Rotary systems positively impact animal well-being. Goats and sheep move naturally in a circular path, minimizing time spent standing still, which reduces stress. Animals enter at their own pace and experience faster, gentler milking—resulting in higher-quality milk and healthier livestock.

4. Automation and Data-Driven Management

Many rotary parlors feature advanced automation and smart data systems that monitor milk yield, animal health, and operational metrics. This data supports smarter decisions and improved herd management. At Agromasters, our Hermes automatic cluster removal system helps prevent overmilking, protects milk quality, and supports animal health.
