How are you going to milk your cows today, tomorrow, and in 5 years?
This is a question asked by millions of people
DeLaval voluntary milking system VMS allows cows to follow a natural rhythm
They milk when they like, in a calm and quiet environment
the feed manger automatically adjusts to each cows length
to keep her comfortable
the cow is identified by the system and granted milking permission
Feed is gradually dispensed during milking
before milking the teats are cleaned individually using a unique teat preparation cup
only a few seconds are needed for optimum sanitation
the teat preparation cup has its own separate line
so no dirty pre-milk ever makes contact with the milk line
this helps ensure optimum milking hygiene
each teat is gently cleaned with luke warm water and air
the teats are well stimulated, pre-milked, and dried before milking
optimum teat preparation leads to higher milk flows, shorter unit on time,
excellent udder health and milk quality
DeLaval VMS uses its agile hydraulic robotic arm
together with 2 lasers and an image processing system
for precise teat detection
it truly sees the teats
the robotic arm is fast and quiet yet very robust and gentle
its repetitive procedures are consistent, just as the cows like it
as there is no machinery under her, she stands naturally without risk of injury
the arm easily accommodates high, wide, or low udder irregularities
and teats with angles up to 45 degrees
it also helps ensure proper milk hose alignment to reduce slippage and kick-off's
4 optical and 4 milk meters monitor deviations and abnormalities
flow rates, yields, conductivity, and blood levels
abnormal milk can automatically be diverted away from the milk tank
meanwhile the management software recalls all the data and events to facilitate your management decisions
VMS almost instantly detects any falloffs and initiates retraction
then rinsing off the teat cup before re-attaching it
the agile robotic arm optimally re-attaches the clean teat cup
so milking can be completed
there is even automatic teat disinfection after milking
with the possibility to select various operational lags
all the cups are rinsed inside and out between each cow
the cups then face down so they can drain and stay free
of debris that could otherwise fall inside
programmable automatic floor cleaning allows your cows to stand on a clean surface at all times
the optional DeLaval online cell counter OCC is exclusively available for VMS
now you can get an accurate somatic cell count measurement
for every cow at every milking
and enjoy a wealth of information in real time.
all the somatic cell count data generated by DeLaval OCC
is processed and integrated in the VMS cow monitoring software
along with reports and somatic cell count graphs
there is more to automatic milking than the robot
and DeLaval knows that a well functioning barn
is essential for the success of your plans
DeLaval professionals can help you design the whole barn
to help your cows attain their natural cycles
while encouraging frequent visits to the robot.
the unique DeLaval smart selection gates offers you
many opportunities to maximize your herd performance
or reducing labor requirements
Automatic feeding solutions are available for dairy cows and calves
DeLaval has developed some unique milk cooling solutions
specially adapted to the realities of automatic milking
Cow comfort is a priority at DeLaval
because happy cows make happy farmers
you and your cows can benefit from a wide variety of cow comfort solutions
the world acclaimed DeLaval swinging cow brush, rubber coverage for alleys
and a wide range of cow mattresses
totally unique automatic footbath to help you efficiently control lameness
thousands of families have already handed over the heavy chores of milking
to a DeLaval VMS
and they now enjoy a more flexible lifestyle every single day
in fast changing times, when increased productivity is at the center of all discussions
you have the freedom to choose how you use your time better and improve your daily life
how are you going to milk your cows tomorrow
