The Challenge:

Shed Needs Speed, Upgrades

This 50 bail milking shed required boosted milking speeds and a general upgrade of all in-line system componentry. This customer wanted better speeds and faster turnaround without a complete rebuild of the shed and system.

Morrison Agri Enhances Components

Morrison Agri assessed its operation and soon saw where gains could be made and milk flows quickened. In this instance, they opted to:

Upgrade the milkline from 76mm to 100mm allowing for much more stable vacuum at the cluster providing cleaner/faster milking
Replace a much-modified pulsation line to a new 76mm line
Install new larger volume receiving can
Install better washing and larger sanitary traps.

The Outcomes:

Faster, Reliable Milking Achieved

The newly upgraded milking system transformed speeds and increased reliability. Precisely what the share milker sought to get from his shed, says Paul Morrison of Morrison Agri.

“He got a faster, more reliable milking plant which will serve his needs for a very long time. The immediate increase in throughput was well received and this has helped overall farm efficiency.”
