How to choose a milking machine
Previously a large and small cattle were milked exclusively by hand, but this requires the farmer's time and milking skills. Often a large staff of milkmaids is needed to have time to milk all the cattle on the farm. In addition, it is not always as effective as it should be. The manual method of milking was replaced by machine milking, which allows to improve the milking process, increase productivity and reduce the human factor. To obtain milk products, a milking machine is used, which works due to the vacuum pressure created by the pump. The pump and engine make up the power part of the unit. It is worth buying a milking machine to run a productive dairy production on a farm with large or small cattle.
Milking apparatus, the price of which depends on various factors, is appropriate if you have 2 or more heads on your farm or farm animals This unit is necessary to increase productivity and accelerate milk collection from animals. In the FermaTech online store, you will find a durable unit of various capacities and productivity, suspended equipment suitable for devices of Ukrainian and foreign manufacturers.
How to choose and where to buy a milking machine in Ukraine
The choice of device should be considered, approach this issue seriously so that the unit fits your specific case and met the farm according to all criteria:
What type of animals are there on your farm or private farm - for small and large cattle different milking spiders are assigned. Hanging equipment differs in size, materials used, shape.
Number of heads. This criterion is no less important. If you decide to buy a milking machine in Ukraine, then consider that with a larger number of cattle in a private farm, there should be a more productive system. We have two hanging machines for simultaneous milking of two cows, then up to four goats or sheep. Milking machines are equipped with different volumes of milk containers, from 20 to 40 liters. There are also models with two containers, that is, you can milk up to 80 liters of milk at a time.
Milking process. If you have a separate room where you can milk cows, goats or sheep, then buying a stationary installation is a rational solution for many farms. Otherwise, choose a mobile milking machine. The unit has a convenient cart for moving, so you can milk large or small cattle wherever it is convenient for you - far from the livestock premises, on the pasture.
Power plant. Engine and pump system joins in the unit in different ways. There is a modular design, there is one that consists of one solid block. You can modernize the first option, it is convenient to repair it, since the spare parts are disconnected from each other. The second is more compact, since the rotary pump is connected to the engine.
Type of pump. The home milking machine can work on the basis of a piston, membrane or rotary pump. The most common is plate-rotor. It, in turn, is divided into dry and oily, each of the options has its advantages and disadvantages. Dry pumps require periodic replacement of the graphite plates, but they can be turned on at any temperature, outdoors under a canopy or in an unheated room. Oil pumps are used only in a warm room, they need to be regularly filled with oil, but they are more productive than dry plate-rotor pumps. Oil pumps need to be serviced in time to eliminate the risk of oil getting into the milk.
