The T8500 is renowned for being low maintenance and long-lasting, offering farmers a reliable rotary system with low running costs.
No fuss milking routine
The T8500 rotary has been designed to achieve more with fewer people, thanks to single-operator controls and smart on-platform automation. One person can safely and comfortably control the milking routine, making it possible to reallocate staff for other farm tasks.
Better cow comfort
The heavy-duty bail design is available in two sizes with adjustable rail positions to suit all breeds and sizes, ensuring cows are comfortable during milking. The look-through bails design is also easy to clean between milkings.
Smooth platform entry and exit
To increase throughput and cow flow, it’s important to have an environment that allows cows to enter and exit the platform smoothly and quickly. The T8500 has been designed to do just that! The carefully considered bail and railing design helps cows move quickly and naturally, and the cluster drop down system prevents tangles and platform stoppages.
Long-lasting reliability
Designed with a double ‘I’ beam carriage roller system and nylon rollers under the platform, the T8500 offers less wear and tear, reduced point loading and extremely low maintenance costs.
