DeLaval DelPro™ MU480 milking unit

Key Benefits

Precise data

  • ICAR and DHIA approved

DeLaval milking unit MU480 sends and receives accurate information automatically. If connected to DelPro Herd Management, any alerts or alarms will instantly be sent to the unit while the cow is being prepared for milking. Milking data is sent with the same speed and accuracy.

Faster milking

The MU480 has built-in intelligence to maintain stable vacuum levels, delivering low-line milking system performance in a high-line milking environment. Because the vacuum level is continuously monitored and adjusted, your cows get the best of both worlds: faster milking times and improved teat condition.

Boost productivity

  • Wireless communication
  • LED display

The MU480 unit communicates wirelessly with DeLaval herd management software, providing up-to-the-minute information on cow productivity to support your decision making process. You can monitor the health of your cows at the touch of a button. If automated feeding is part of your operation, herd data can be sent to the DeLaval feed wagon, ensuring accurate feed delivery for your cows, boosting milk yield and cutting labor costs.

Bringing premium performance to your barn

Works with DeLaval DelPro™ Farm Manager

As a stand-alone milking unit, MU480 gives you fast and gentle milk-out. Add DelPro™ farm management software and you have a tool that will help you make informed decisions about your herd faster than ever before. With the addition of a feeding robot, you can utilize milk yield information collected by your milking units and DelPro™ to continually adapt feed to your herd’s lactation cycle, allowing for better feed management and saving you hours of work each day.

Fully integrated

This total farm integration is unique for tie stall barns and can translate into significant rewards. Milk yields per lactation can dramatically increase, while time spent monitoring and feeding cows can decline by over 2 hours per day in a 60-cow herd and over 15 hours per day for a 600-cow herd.

Industry leading

Not only is MU480 an industry-leading milking unit, but it also offers the technology you need to manage your herd effectively.
