- The Afimilk MPC (Milk Point Controller), provides important features and alerts for milking operators:Quality milking – built to provide the necessary protection against damaging vacuum fluctuationsCluster removal – accurate, adjustable thresholds for automatic stoppage of milking when milk flow decreases; timed vacuum closure guarantees smooth release of cluster from udder.Pulsation – choose basic control to configure rates and ratios, or advanced flow-controlled pulsation to automatically adjust pulsation according to milk flow.
Data collection:
- Accurately measures milk flow and milk yield, in accordance with ICAR guidelines. Approved for use in genealogical records.
- Conductivity- state-of-the-art conductivity sensor used for effective and early detection of mastitis
- Other measurements: milk weight, milking time, cluster removal, pulsation, which allow monitoring and evaluation and optimization of milking parlor operation and milking protocols
