Rapid Excellent rapid exit milking parlour
The Rapid Excellent is an advanced side-by-side Rapid Exit milking parlour, a proven concept for good and reliable milking. Characteristic is its solid, robust construction. The breast barriers move vertically upwards by means of an electro-hydraulic system and do not swing forward and therefore allows the cows to exit the milking parlour simultaneously via the broad exit lane.
The Rapid Excellent is equipped with practical gates. As soon as the first cow has placed itself in the first position, there will be an opening for the second cow to enter the second one. This procedure is repeated until all positions are filled. Thanks to the optimal gate model it is perfectly possible to milk the cows in a partially filled milking parlour. Because the cows stand close to each other, short walking lines are created, which constitute a significant time-saving factor.
The hydraulic, reliable operation with electrical control makes stepless indexing possible. The Rapid Excellent milking parlor can be supplied with a stainless steel manure plate or optionally with a manure chute. This milking parlor can also be supplied with a beautifully finished stainless steel pipe cabinet, so that your pipes and cables disappear from view, which also benefits hygiene and the lifespan of your equipment.
The breast barrier moving vertically upwards and the absence of floor-mounted supports on the floor between the cows, allow large cows sufficient space to walk away. Therefore, this milking parlour requires only minimal space.
To ensure optimal hygiene and safety for the operator, the frame is self-supporting and equipped with kick protection. By default, the milking parlour is equipped with a stainless steel manure plate and gutter edge, optionally available with manure gutter, transparent plate, or open central frame.
Unique elements are electrohydraulic and indexable breast barriers, so that the position length can be easily shortened by adjusting the breast barrier, allowing the udders of the cow to be optimally accessible for optimal working comfort. Furthermore, the breast barrier is shaped in such a way that the cow is extremely relaxed during milking.
As a option are driving clamps on our Rapid Excellent milking parlour bracket available. After raising the breast barrier, the animal-friendly driving clamp can be activated, so that the cows can leave the stall quickly. This accelerates the rotation of the cows and will thus speed up the entire milking process considerably.This clamp can also be fitted to existing Rapid Excellent milking parlours.
