CapriTwin milking cluster for goats and OviTwin for sheep: gentle and efficient milking in systems with high-level lines.
You can choose between two products:
Both milking clusters are designed to suit the special udder shape of these animals. The benefits of both varieties are identical: They milk your animals gently and quickly and ensure high milk quality. They are perfectly suited for systems with high-level lines. They can either be operated manually or in combination with a milking controller.
The CapriTwin and OviTwin milking clusters for sheep and goats are made from durable materials that last a very long time. GEA uses silicone for its teat cup liners which adapts to suit the shape of the animals' udders, is resistant to acids and still fits perfectly on the udder after a number of years of use. The hoses are also made from high-quality silicone. The remaining components, such as the milking shells and claw, are made from impact-resistant, transparent plastic. You get a durable, long-lasting product that also provides excellent visual control over the milking process. You can instantly spot any problems that occur during milking. To ensure the equipment stays hygienic, the surfaces of the CapriTwin and OviTwin are smooth and easy to clean.
The CapriTwin and OviTwin milking clusters are specially designed to ensure that milk flows away quickly, ensuring high milk quality. To do this, the milking cluster features an air inlet beneath the milking shell that ensures there is a constant stream of air towards the claw. You can easily switch off the vacuum at the milking shell when milking under manual control. The integrated electronics also allow you to control the equipment with a milking control unit such as the DemaTron or MetaTron. Automatic milking is also completely hassle-free with the CapriTwin and OviTwin milking clusters. And the milking process is always gentle on the animals due to its low vacuum strength.
As a system provider, GEA can design a Total Solutions concept for your dairy. CapriTwin and OviTwin are easy to combine with other components from GEA. This modular system ensures that the solutions adapt to meet your requirements, and not the other way around.
Ports now compete not just on logistics, but on sustainability. At Greece’s Piraeus port, an advanced processing and recovery facility recycles ship waste oil into fuel. Equipped with GEA’s high-performance centrifuges, it sets a new benchmark for state-of-the-art, environmentally responsible port operations.
The 2022 CO2 shortage forced breweries to review their dependency on global supply chains. Many were forced to close, unable to carbonate their products. At its breweries in Germany, OeTTINGER GETRÄNKE is turning its own CO2 into a powerful lever for independence and sustainability – with the help of CO2 recovery technology from GEA.
In a shifting political and economic landscape, GEA stays the course. We spoke with Dr. Nadine Sterley, GEA’s Chief Sustainability Officer, about why sustainability remains central to the company’s business strategy, how GEA is progressing on its ambitious goals and what it takes to turn words into action.
