Specifically designed for goat and sheep milking
SR Internal – Small Ruminant Internal Rotary Parlour
Designed especially for sheep and goats, the SR Internal offers a continuous milking process ensuring the highest milking performance.
Automated feeding system that provides up to four rations with three feed types
Helping you achieve fast throughput by ensuring orderly traffic flow, animal and operator comfort while using highly efficient milking equipment that optimizes milking processes to ensure milking is fast and effective. Tailor the AR Internal with a range of highly efficient milking equipment options, providing you with the flexibility to build the best solution to meet your requirements.
Unlike traditional rotary parlours, the AR Internal has no fixed stall divider to hold the animal in place; this allows the animals to relax and take comfort in having contact with others.
The animals enter the parlour through a guided chute and are steered into the individual feed bins, which are filled automatically. The animal places its head in the feed bin, which activates a headlock, holding the animal in place for the duration of the milking.
Once milking is complete, the headlock opens automatically before the exit.
Key features and benefits:
- 32-72 clusters
- Guided bridge entrance with alley entry and exit
- Sectional construction for a quick and easy installation process
- Adjustable platform to suit operator height
- Automated operator console and touch screen panel
- Reliable drive system
- No fixed stall dividers allow for animal-to-animal contact for a comfortable milking process
- Individual self-locking headlocks
- Automated feed system providing up to 4 rations and 3 feed types
- Individual tip feed bins which self—empty and pass under the bridge upon each rotation
