Get the maximum performance out of the GEA SlopeScreen

Dave Styer of Alfalawn Farm in Wisconsin has been using the GEA SlopeScreen on his dairy farm for 7 years. After years of manually cleaning his separator system with a pressure washer, he transitioned to an automated circular spray bar system which ran every two hours. He still wasn't satisfied with the job that was doing and was looking for something better. That's when he discovered the new OptiClean automated cleaning system from GEA, which he's been using for almost a year. Here's what Dave had to say about it:

How has adding the OptiClean changed your cleaning process?

It's a very thorough cleaning system. I can notice a substantial difference when it's done cleaning - the amount of material that's going through the screen and separating is much higher. Right now, we're running it four times a day.

How does it compare to your previous system?

It is cleaner washing system. With our other system, we'd get a lot of debris that'd blow off the screen onto the outside edges. Because of the shielding on the OptiClean system, it doesn't make a mess.

How is it helping your dairy overall?

Our flume system operates on good water quality - the cleaner the water is, the better it performs. OptiClean helps increase the performance of our flume system by improving the water quality.

What's your favorite feature?

I don't have to worry about it - it takes care of itself.
