With the EuroClass 800 SwingOver milking parlour andthe PosiSwing positioning arm GEA Farm Technologieshas designed an ingenious duo for linking oppositemilking stalls to one milking system. Together they candouble the benefits for your business success – givingyou appreciable reductions in your investment costs and considerable savings in time and effort.

Your benefit Number 1: time savings

Significant savings in time are guaranteed sincepractically the entire workflow is automated. Whilstyou're attaching the cluster to the last cow, the firstcow has usually finished milking. The cluster is swungover to the opposite milking stall at the flick of a wrist,and pulsation and milking vacuum to the cluster areactivated automatically through the rapid start function.There is no hectic rush, and the lack of delay meansconsiderably higher milk flow per unit every hour.

One system – two reasons for success

Your benefit Number 2: easy to use

The milking equipment is located in the centre of theoperator pit, so that it can be used alternately betweentwo opposite milking stalls. This reduces walking distances considerably. You have handy access to boththe terminal and the cluster, enabling good posturethroughout milking. The upshot: less work strain andan unhindered view of the animal foroptimal pre- andpost-milking routines.

Support systemThe support system has been designed so that it canbe positioned according to individual requirementssuch as the height of the operator or the design of thepit. This enables the milking equipment to be installedso as to minimise the lift from the cluster to the milkline, thus ensuring udder-friendly milking at lowvacuum.

Magnetic switchThe swinging movement causes theintegrated magnetic switch to acti-vate the milking stall. Pulsation andmilking vacuum to the cluster arestarted automatically, and there isno need for any further action.

The "1 for 2" principle with Metatron P21Milk metering in SwingOver is easy with theDairyManagementSystem 21. The unique and speciallydesigned functions incorporated in SwingOver enableboth milking stalls to be operated with just one control unit – the "1 for 2" principle. Its split screenshows all relevant animal data for both milking stallsat a glance.

Entry and exitThe sturdy entry and exit gates can be easily operatedfrom each individual terminal. The exit gate is lockeduntil the final cluster on that side of the parlour hasbeen removed. While milking continues on one side ofthe parlour, the group on the other side is rapidlychanged over. The upshot: increased throughput.

Your acoustic assistantYet another feature is the DPVoice 21 audioresponse system. DairyManagementSystem 21has a loudspeaker function that talks you

through the data for each animal, such as animal numberor position. This enables you to respond specifically to in-dividual animals in your herd and optimise your milkingprocesses.
