Sistemi base della sala di mungitura “Cow Rotary”
Il sistema di spurgo del condotto del latte con aria di qualità alimentare offre una fornitura completa di latte che è rimasto nel condotto a seguito della mungitura nel serbatoio di raffreddamento. Il condotto può contenere fino a 20-25 litri di latte a seconda della distanza tra la mungitrice e il serbatoio.
Il sistema di messaggio vocale annuncerà il bovino selezionato tramite un messaggio di controllo per una specifica mucca. Sistema particolarmente conveniente nei casi di lavoro su turni del personale della sala mungitura, in quanto aiuta ad annunciare un’informazione importante. Il personale può registrare messaggi necessari inerenti una mucca specifica. Il sistema informerà l’operatore della sala di mungitura su un particolare evento legato al processo di mungitura (per esempio sulla diminuzione di produzione di latte di una mucca, ecc.).
L’avanzatore è un elemento estremamente necessario per la sala di mungitura “Cow Rotary”. Proprio grazie alla condizioni di comfort, durante la permanenza nella stalla nel corso della mungitura, il bestiame non intende poi lasciare la piattaforma. Nel momento in cui la mucca si trova nell’area di uscita e non vuole lasciare la piattaforma, l’avanzatore induce la mucca ad abbandonarla.
Sistemi raccomandati nella sala di mungitura “Cow Rotary”
Il sistema automatico supplementare di alimentazione mirata (un sistema atto a stimolare la produttività e completezza del bestiame all’interno della sala mungitura) permette di guadagnare l’ 8% di latte extra e risparmiare 1 kg di mangimi composti per bestiame al giorno, funziona senza un costoso regolatore automatico nella sala pre-mungitura ed è libero dalla regolare suddivisione del bestiame per gruppi produttivi-fisiologici. Nel “Cow Rotary” le sale di mungitura possono distribuire fino a quattro tipi differenti di alimentazione supplementare a seconda dello stato fisiologico del bestiame.
Il condotto di deviazione del latte (sistema di suddivisione automatica del latte) permette di suddividere il latte per gradi durante il processo di mungitura, dà l’opportunità di vendere gradi differenti di latte a prezzi differenti. Permette,inoltre, di non investire nella costruzione della sala di mungitura, acquistando attrezzature per la mungitura e per il refrigeramento, perché ogni bovino viene munto nella principale sala di mungitura. Questo aiuta anche a evitare la formazione di gruppi particolari di mastite bovina.
In “Cow Rotary” milking parlors may be used also secondary milk line (milk can be divided into three grades at the same time) in order to separate milk with, for example, increased amount of protein or fat.
Il Sistema di disinfezione delle mungitrici a seguito di ogni mungitura conferisce una pulizia automatica con disinfettante dopo ogni mungitura, questo esclude la contaminazione incrociata del bestiame nella sala di mungitura con la stessa mungitrice. La riduzione della quantità di cellule somatiche incrementa il costo del latte data la sua migliore qualità e migliora la salute del bestiame.
Componenti principali della sala di mungitura “Cow Rotary”
Automatic identification system reads information from an electronic ear chip when a cow enters the milking parlor. The chip is attached to the ear of each cow and, when cow passing through identification antenna, spotted at the milking parlor entrance, or through breeding unit (if exists), sends signal on reader, which, in turn, sends message on computer, which identifies a cow.
“Milk Manager” software provides easy access for full info about milk yields, milking time, treatment data, cow sorting and their weight, monitors and manages all of the automatic systems of milking parlor. All data imports in illustrative tables and graphs, and operator have an option to add results of productiveness monitoring into a program. During all process of milking program manages and monitoring status of each cow during milking.
The program can fully manage and automate cow segregation processes. Cattle are sorted using robotic selection gates, and sorting schedule may be configured depending on user’s requirements, for example, regular flow separating or temporary separation of some cows in a specific direction.
Cow activity detection system, which is used to determine cows in "heat", also interacts with program. When a cow is determined as in "heat", selection gates may sort that cow automatically during adjusted by user milking.
Milking stall control panel displays a number of important indicators, like milk yield, milking time, SCC amount in each cow’s milk and much more. With one touch you can manage cows feed on each of milking stalls, receiving messages about cows in heat and control operation of selection gates, separating cow for inspection and impregnation. Moreover, Swiftflo Commander’s display informs you about newborn cows in milking labors, initiating milking into separate milk line.
Milking machine has a visual milk stream control option through transparent collector’s cap. According to results of scientific researches, performed considering full cow’s lactation period, Dairymaster’s milking machine allows to receive 5% more milking yield comparing with others tested milking machines. Milking machine advantages determined by its components, which includes: specially designed collector, stainless steel cup sleeves and super elastic conical liners. The liner is exceptionally high in performance and reduced slippage among existing liner brands. Special liner’s conical form and elasticity, made of special material, provides such a milking regime, in which cap does not creep onto the teat base during milking, so teat channel isn’t pinched.
Milking machine provides stable vacuum during milking (42-44 kPa in underteat chamber) and reduces pressure in chill phase (under 18-20 kPa depending on milk’s stream). It increases milking speed and improves udder health.
Receiving bowls provides optimal position for milking machines during flushing. System is neatly hidden under cow’s stall. Receiving bowls have a hygienic design - they allow you to flush the liner both from the inside and outside. Self-closing lids prevent dirt ingress during milking.
Automatic milking machines removal system accurate and consistently tracks milk flow during milking. After milking is over, the vacuum is cut off and the milking machine is automatically disconnected from the cow's udder. Lift cylinder are made of stainless steel, which provides peak durability and reliability. Automatic milking machines removal system may be easily configured through milk meter or computer, it also has a milk meter restart option, which allows meter to save milk yield’s data in case if cow accidently dropped milk machine or it has been removed.
Automatic milking machines removal system able to track milk flow in both two milk lines (main and secondary) and allows you to separate milk with an one tap on the button.
Milk weighting meters are certified by International Committee for Animals Registration ICAR and Dairy Herd Improvement Association DHIA. The milk, which comes into the meter, registering depending on weight principle (meter measures not milk volume or flow, but its weight) – this is the most accurate measuring system.
The milk meter has a probe selecting system. This function is fully-integrated into milk meter. Milk meters flushing system has also been optimized. Activation flushing system on a single meter automatically triggers flushing of every meter.
Milk ducts, vacuum ducts, flush lines are made of stainless steel, which provides high durability level and long lifecycle. Our milk ducts sizes accord to the last international standards. The use of stainless steel ensures easy flushing and sanitization.
Milk receivers are made of stainless steel with sided dome observation windows, produced from transparent food grade plastic to visualize milk flow into the milk receiver. Milk receivers may be manufactured in different sizes in order to fit in every milk parlor.
Reactive flushing system is an effective system for flushing milking stations of any types and sizes. System is controlled by flushing machine and comes with tank equipped with an air injector. System filling tank with water, then ejects it into milk duct at speed of 12-14 meters per second. Turbulent movement of water flow forms in milk ducts, which allows to effectively flush the milk ducts and milk receiver, minimizing flushing solution consumption.
Flushing machine provides regular high grade flushing of milking parlor. Flushing machine are fully-integrated and controls all the cycle of milking parlor flushing. It liaises with all of the milking parlor equipment, including milk meters and milking machines removal system to ensure the best flushing sequence. Flushing machine allows to select different flushing cycles in one touch. The sequence of flushing cycles is fully adjustable, and can be easily configured to the user’s requirements. The pre-flushing before milking may be adjusted on auto-launch. The preserve valve will prevent flushing start before milking parlor are properly connected with flushing system. It helps to avoid accidental ingress of flushing solution into the milk cooler.
Pre-installed warning indicator helps to inform the user timely in case of incorrect operation of system, for example, low flushing solution level and etc. The system is equipped with re-battery for configuration saving in cases of sudden blackout.
Centrifugal milk pumps are manufactured using last technologies, materials and developments. Milk pump comes with multi-blade impeller, provides a number of benefits, namely: high-effective accurate pulling on different rates with help of unique blades design.
Milk filtration system are made of stainless steel on base of durable chassis, disposable filter is installed to ensure optimal milk filtration. Using several filters are reasonable for large installations and adjust filter replacement system during milking. Filter prevents foreign materials from entering into plate pre-cooler and then in milk tank, improving efficiency of both cooler and milk tank.
Vacuum installation operates with most reliable rotary vane vacuum pumps. Vacuum pumps are designed using the latest engineering technology to ensure maximum performance.
Vacuum pumps equipped with frequency regulation system provides high efficiency and helps significantly reduce power consumption (by 50-80%). They supplied with belt guard, which made of stainless steel. Safety float are included in the sanitary flask, which provides automatic shutdown of vacuum system in cases, when the milk container is overfilled with milk.
Pulse system used in our milking equipment are recognized as the leader according to the reliability, stable duty and convenience in service criteria. Frequency and pulsation ratio are easily adjustable.
Dairymaster use simultaneous milking system (4x0) – each of 4 teats are milking at the same time.
In that case you can adjust vacuum level, imitating udder sucking by a calf, resulting in:
- Teat canal opens fully, providing best milk per second milking speed comparing with other equipment.
- Reduces the risk of hyperkeratosis (thickening and coarsening of the teat), improves teat condition.
- Cattle likes milking process. As a result, more oxytocin enters into cattle’s bloodstream, which allows to increase milk yield by 5% due to thorough milking.
The combination of simultaneous pulsation system (milking all of 4 teats at the same time) with a liner, which able to adhere at teat at low vacuum level in rest phase (under 18 kPa) ensures fast (20% faster than in pair milking system) and gentle cattle milking, also ensuring optimal blood circulation in teats during milking.
At pair milking (2x2) high vacuum level is required all of the time, else milking machine will slip off.
Dairymaster’s milking machine will not slip and does not allow air to enter.
Registration and selecting milk probes is carried out in a safe, clean and accessible place. Collecting probes employee does not interfere with operator’s work, because probes collecting goes independently of the milking process. Milk probes collecting goes unnoticed to cows, which excludes such a stress factor as human strangers.
Central control panel allows operator to manage all of the “Cow Rotary” functional, feeding system and automatic adjuster (if necessary). All of the control elements protected by stainless steel frame with opportunity of manual control of automated systems, such as feeding system, platform movement straight and reverse and rotary speed.
Central management collector allows to control vacuum level, milk transport, power supply, communication, water supply, compressed air and connection to milk ducts through central control panel.
Automatic entrance gates ensure smooth and steady “Cow Rotary” load, free cow’s passage when they enter the platform, allows to pass only single cow, not allowing the second approach the reading antenna. Gates operates in such way that when cow, without a chip with an individual number, steps on platform, system recognizes that cow in order to avoid failure in the registration of milk yield.
Platform emergency stop system is designed to immediate platform stopping. When the emergency stop is activated, the platform will stop immediately. That kind of stops may be made if the cow is unable to enter or exit the platform. When the reason for the stop has been solved, the platform will remain its movement automatically.
Milking machine positioning bracket keeps the milking machine in an optimal position behind the cow, which makes milking machine installation process easier for operator, ensures free passage of cows on/from the platform and protects hoses from kinking.
Additional options for “Cow Rotary” milking parlor
Breeding unit may split cows on two, three or more directions. Directions for individual cows may be adjusted from the milking pit using the milk meter remote control, or automatically, based on pre-recorded configurations in herd management system. An additional option for this system is automatic weighting.
An additional data center is spotted inside of “Cow Rotary” platform. Herd monitoring program works in real-time and translates on monitor screen. Displaying numbers of milk meters and cows, located near the probe station makes their sampling easier.
Milking machine auto-launch after its rising also turning on milk meter and auto removal system automatically, so operator doesn’t have to press any buttons to begin milking. This function frees operator’s time and responds to our goal, making milking process faster and easier.
Plate milk precoolers are made of stainless steel allows to cool milk in stream, even before arriving in cooling tank to 4 degrees Celsius. This is a perfect way to cool milk right after milking. Cooling efficient may be improved using both with milk stream regulator.
Cow restraint system descends behind the cow, preventing its eventual exit from the platform until the cow is completely milked. At the same time, “Cow Rotary” itself does not stop for the time required for the complete milking of the cow and its exit from the platform. System accurately detects empty milking stalls on “Cow Rotary” and cows, which goes on a second lap.
Intelligent software compares cow’s milk yield with previous milking performances, and in cases of obvious deviations, restraint system will hold cow and move it to operator for milking machine reinstallation.
Rotating stainless steel bracket for external parlor flushing equipped with hose and sprayer, which flushes the premises around platform’s external part. The device makes parlor’s flushing easier, because operator doesn’t have to carry long hoses.
Lifting floor provides comfortable workplace conditions inside of your milking parlor, increases operator’s effectiveness and productivity and decreases his tiredness. Lifting floor has a couple of presetted levels, which saves in device’s memory. System’s cover designed on long-term duty, flushing easily, doesn’t slip and doesn’t retain water.
"Farm Messenger" is a convenient milking parlor management application for a smartphone. It displays milked cows amount, total milk yield, milking start time and duration. User can adjust messages for milking parlor’s voice system, manage cow’s sorting through entrance gates, enter veterinary records and perform other tasks.
Automatic teat flushing for rotary platforms may be turned on before milking or after it in a 5 seconds since milking machine have been removed. The flushing method uses cholorhexadine, which is very effective and excludes necessity for an operator at the milk machines removal unit.
Milking Parlor “Double”
In “Double” milking parlor each milking stall are equipped with milking machine. That milking parlor type will perfectly fit for farms, which needs to maximize their workspace or where cows are milked in groups.

Dairymaster uses simultaneous milking system (4x0) – each of 4 teats are milking at the same time. In that case you can adjust vacuum level, imitating udder sucking by a calf, resulting in:
- Teat canal opens fully, providing best milk per second milking speed comparing with other equipment.
- Reduces the risk of hyperkeratosis (thickening and coarsening of the teat), improves teat condition.
- Cattle likes milking process. As a result, more oxytocin enters into cattle’s bloodstream, which allows to increase milk yield by 5% due to thorough milking.
At pair milking (2x2) high vacuum level is required all of the time, else milking machine will slip off.
Dairymaster’s milking machine will not slip and does not allow air to enter.
The combination of simultaneous pulsation system (milking all of 4 teats at the same time) with a liner, which able to adhere at teat at low vacuum level in rest phase (under 18 kPa) ensures fast (20% faster than in pair milking system) and gentle cattle milking, also ensuring optimal blood circulation in teats during milking.

User can adjust messages for milking parlor’s voice system, manage cow’s sorting through entrance gates, enter veterinary records and perform other tasks.
Automatic teat flushing system has been developed for flushing teats using wide dispersion angle stream. The system is built into entrance gates, which helps to divide cattle during flushing. Automatic flusher may also have additional automatic rinse system. Operator adjusts the rinsing time for an individual cow.
Pumps power saving system quickly optimizes pump speed depending on the air demand of the milking parlor air, which reduces power consumption by 50-80%.
Milking Parlor “Herringbone”
Core difference between “Herringbone” milking parlor and “Double” or “Swing Over” is an sequential cow’s exit from milking labor. Unlike FastExit systems in basic configurations, when a batch of milked cows simultaneously released from the raised stalls, in “Herringbone” cows comes out sequentially along the milking pit. It allows the milking labor to be placed in narrow premises, but reduces its throughput. This makes “Herringbone” an optimal option for farms, which requires for reconstruction or equipment replacement in already existed narrow premises.
In “Herringbone” milking parlor may be used or “Double” system, where each milking stall is equipped with a milking machine, or economical “Swing over” system.
