Automated Teat Dipping and Backflushing Milking Unit
Automation in the milking parlor not only takes a lot of work off your hands, but also ensures consistent milking routines thanks to standardized processes. Consistently good dipping results and maximum hygiene ensure animal health and milk quality in the long term.
The ApolloMilkSystem automates two important timeconsuming work steps at the end of the milking process in order to keep udders healthy: the reliable and careful dipping of the teats after milking as well as the effective cleaning and disinfecting of the milking clusters between individual milkings.
Dipping in the liner – accurate and economical
- Optimal timing for dipping: Dipping takes place directly inside the teat cup while the cows teat is still stretched under vacuum. This ensures the dipping solution is applied at the ideal moment, when the teat skin is most receptive.
- Comprehensive teat protection: The dipping solution penetrates deeply into all folds and creases of the teat skin. The entire teat surface is evenly and thoroughly coated, leaving no area unprotected.
- Fresh and controlled dosing: The dipping solution is freshly provided for each application. The amount of solution can be individually adjusted and precisely controlled.
- Special dosing chamber for economical use: An innovative dosing chamber minimizes the consumption of dipping solution to only what is necessary. This saves costs and resources without compromising on protection.
- Consistent and reliable results: Automation eliminates errors and inconsistencies in the dipping process. This ensures consistently high udder health and reliable protection against infection.
Backflush – Reliable cluster disinfection
- Thorough removal of residues: After the dipping process, the milking cluster is removed and subjected to an intensive rinse. This step ensures that all residues from dipping solutions and milk are completely washed out of the cluster.
- Complete sanitization with disinfection solution: Following the rinse, the cluster is fully sanitized using a highly effective disinfection solution. This process targets and eliminates pathogens that may be present in the liners and milking cluster, providing a high level of hygiene before the next use.
- Reduction of pathogen transmission: By killing pathogens in the liners and cluster, the system significantly lowers the risk of spreading mastitis-causing bacteria from one cow to another during milking.
- Water saving technology: The cleaning cycles incorporate bursts of air, which help to reduce overall water consumption
- Improved milk quality and udder health: By ensuring that every milking cluster is clean and free from contaminants, the system supports higher milk quality and better udder health across the entire herd.

The breakthrough that changed spray drying
In 1976, NIRO engineers responded to a competitive challenge by rethinking what spray drying could do. Their idea became the multi-stage dryer MSD. Fifty years later, the same fundamental principle helps turn liquids into the powders used in essential nutrition products and important medicines around the world. Refined through decades of engineering expertise, customer insight and continuous development, MSD is a story of innovation with lasting impact.
Das Ganze im Blick: Wie Anlagen dauerhaft besser laufen
Eine effiziente Maschine macht noch keine effiziente Produktion. Echte Verbesserungen beginnen oft damit, den Blick über die einzelnen Anlagenelemente hinaus zu richten und zu verstehen, wie sich Prozesse, Energiesysteme und betriebliche Entscheidungen gegenseitig beeinflussen. Ein solcher ganzheitlicher Ansatz hilft beim Identifizieren von Potenzialen, die sonst verborgen bleiben.
Wie eine neue Ventiltechnologie die Produktion von Lebensmitteln und Getränken verändert
In der Lebensmittel- und Getränkeindustrie werden Ventile traditionell mit Druckluft betrieben. Die GEA Hydract®-Antriebstechnologie betätigt Ventile dagegen mit Wasser in einem geschlossenen, digital gesteuerten Kreislauf. Das Ergebnis: Ventile lassen sich präzise in jeder gewünschten Position halten und in fein abgestuften Schritten steuern. Dadurch sinken der Energieverbrauch und gleichzeitig steigt die Prozesskontrolle erheblich.
