Upgrade your milking speed. Gently.

DeLaval Flow-Responsive™ Milking

DeLaval Flow-Responsive™ milking closely follows the milk flow of your cows and is able to adjust the key parameters of vacuum and pulsation during each milking session. The outcome is a steeper and shorter milk flow profile. 

 
 

DeLaval Flow-Adjusted Stimulation

In most of the monovac systems the vacuum and pulsation levels are set to be effective during the high milk flow. To avoid teat-damages before oxytocin release and the introduced milk let-down a delay after cleaning and before attachment is needed. This waiting period is not longer required as the system is managing the stimulation process after immediate attach of cluster. ​

DeLaval Flow-Adjusted Vacuum

Flow-Adjusted Vacuum speeds up the milk-extraction by lifting the vacuum level when high milk flow is available and then reducing level again once high flow has ended. This is avoiding the inevitable trade-off between udder-health and productivity that is created by a fixed vacuum level over the entire milking process. ​
