Robotic milking

[robot Jerseys]

The non compatibility was one of the reasons we went fullwood. We can run any age machine next to ours with cows visiting both down one Milk line. Quite a achievement on fullwoods part.

Just up the road from us at Tow Law. Sold his suckler cows last year. Owned by an Irishman. Got an AD plant there. Heard plenty of negative things about the place but not sure how true they are.

Tow law. Not the first place that comes to mind as ideal for dairy farming in the North of England

No idea.

Only ask because there is a Northern Irishman who is looking to put in 8 robots now & another 8 next year who also runs an AD plant as well as a number of other business interests.

Improve yes make it incompatible with previous machines is just crazy.

Will see on 10th April.
Electric arm no air
No bladder back to a pump
New vac pump
New laser
Upgrade on software
At least that's what a test one test is like

Be nice if they made an electric arm for the A3 next [emoji16]

 

[No1 Yorkshire Farmer]

Maybe having to do something as there is a controller on A3/A4 arm which won't be available in 5 years from their supplier

Where did you get the slatts in the picture

 

[Chippy]

I’m also wondering what you think to the slats?

 

[Scholsey]

De boer cow housing is the dealer for them, they are eco slats, Belgian made.

Really like them and very often find bulling cows being ridden on them because they feel surer footed than on the printed concrete.

I have slats with kraiburg rubber on and like them. Do you know if there’s a price difference between the 2?

I don’t sorry, was 3 years ago I was quoted for the AB slats and the £/€ have had a bit of a fall out since then.
