Strong - agile - indefatigable: for perfect stall hygiene
The SRone and SRone+ moves noiselessly between the animals without causing any agitation. Quite the opposite, the cows take to it right from the start. Flat and compact, the SRone moves smoothly under gates and carries out its work without supervision. The safety switch is particularly animal-friendly; as soon as the pushing is exceeded, it stops forward movement and starts an obstacle-avoidance manoeuvre.
The SRone and SRone+ reliably ensures good barn hygiene by provision of automatic cleaning of the splattered floor. And when it comes to the bottom line, healthy animals produce more milk at less cost!
The popular SRone with lateral guidance can clean up to 8,000 square meters slatted floor per day, making it the optimum solution for efficiently cleaning out smaller barns with simple, standard walkways and few obstacles. For larger barns with up to 12,000 square meters of slatted flooring to clean each day, or if you wish to design more challenging, personalized route plans, the programmable SRone+ with multifunctional control technology is the ideal choice for reliable, intelligent hygiene management.
The impact of global warming is increasingly apparent all over the world. Towns and cities everywhere face the same challenge: providing their communities with reliable, affordable, sustainably sourced heat. GEA spoke with an expert in the field, Kenneth Hoffmann, Manager, Heat Pumps at GEA Heating & Refrigeration Technologies, about tackling global warming faster.
Something caught Farmer Tom's eye. Instead of another product demo, GEA showcased innovations via AR. That's only the start of GEA's interactive digital farm.
GEA scientists are working with researchers at the Graz University of Technology to configure a homogenization process and technology that turns eucalyptus pulp into 3D-printed, organic structures mimicking human veins, arteries and other tissues.
