Milking Parlours

DeLaval Parlours

Throughput is the fast lane to profitability: if you want to achieve smooth cow-flow and fast milk let-down, cows must feel relaxed in the milking parlour. Our extensive research and development helps ensure a fast, efficient and thorough milking process from the moment your cows enter the milking parlour until the moment they leave.

Our Parlour Range

DeLaval offers a range of parlours that are adapted to the needs of you and your farm. Every parlour is designed so you and your animals are comfortable and safe at all times.

DeLaval Parallel Parlours

In parallel milking parlours all cows stand in parallel to each other and milking only begins when each cow is in its stall. Milking at most takes a few minutes and the cows are released from parallel milking parlours at once.

DeLaval Herringbone Parlours

In a herringbone milking parlour, the milking machines are positioned in the middle - the 'spine' of the fish - between two aisles with room for the cows. The cows coming into the herringbone milking parlour line up between each 'fish bone', creating two rows of cows.

DeLaval MidiLine™

Parallel or Herringbone - DeLaval MidiLine™ can easily be fitted on new or existing milking parlours, for an economical and cost-effective swing over solution. You can add automation as you go.

It’s all about the flow

A milking parlour system that doesn’t respond to the milk flow of cows is missing the opportunity to milk faster and to help you protect teat condition and animal welfare. With DeLaval Flow-Responsive™ Milking, your milking parlour system can, for the first time, automatically adjust key parameters to better follow, and to better encourage the milk flow of your cows.

DeLaval Evanza™

The entire DeLaval milking parlour range is compatible with our state-of-the-art DeLaval Evanza™ clusters. Designed to extract more milk, in less time whilst unlocking more efficient, less stressful routines for milkers.

Works well with the wider DeLaval Ecosystem

From the new DeLaval Milking Automation, down to cooling, storing and transporting milk to teat spraying, and hygiene products, the parlour systems work together with all parts of the DeLaval ecosystem.

Milking Automation for Parlours

DeLaval cow-traffic

The key to unlocking the full potential of your DeLaval Parallel Parlour is making sure your cow-traffic system is able to move cows through it and back to barn where we want her, as quickly and safely as possible.

DeLaval Milk Cooling & Storage

DeLaval milking systems are designed to protect the quality of your herd’s milk. Powerful cooling and precise temperature control locks in milk quality before it even reaches the storage tank.

DeLaval Liners

DeLaval milking liners have uniquely soft lips which are gentle on cows' teats and a smooth inner surface to enhance milk flow naturally.
