Upgrade your milking speed. Gently.
Flow-Responsive™ Milking for DeLaval VMS™ V300
Upgrade to Flow‑Responsive Milking in your VMS to milk more cows, faster than ever. A stable vacuum at the teat end extracts milk more quickly when milk flow is higher – down to individual teat level for every cow. The result is more comfortable and relaxed cows.
It's better for farmers
20-40 sec faster per milking*
Flow‑Responsive Milking results in shorter milking times, which in turn allow more cows to be milked per VMS station per day. Conversely, less time spent milking results in more idle time per station, allowing for increased time available for service and maintenance.
It's better for cows
Up to 50% fewer kick-offs*
Cows are more comfortable and relaxed during Flow‑Responsive Milking and can benefit from better udder health because of the gentler, more variable vacuum and shorter cluster on‑time. In addition, they spend less time in the waiting area and more time resting and feeding.
What is Flow-Responsive Milking?
In other robotic milking systems, it is common for the vacuum at the teat end to drop when milk flow is at its highest. Flow‑Responsive Milking automatically maintains a steady vacuum at the teat end while handling variations in milk flow from each individual quarter. This results in faster milking times, and less cup‑on time means a faster, gentler, and more complete milking experience for cows, as well as higher potential per box.
