DeLaval Flow-Adjusted Stimulation

In most of the monovac systems the vacuum and pulsation levels are set to be effective during the high milk flow. To avoid teat-damages before oxytocin release and the introduced milk let-down a delay after cleaning and before attachment is needed. This waiting period is not longer required as the system is managing the stimulation process after immediate attach of cluster. ​

  • During the Stimu-Phase the applied vacuum is just 34 kPa, pulse 30/70 with 50 bpm.
  • The main-phase is at 42-44 kPa, pulse 65/35 and 60 bpm.
  • Take-off level is between 300-1000 g/min, depending on breed and milking-interval.

Key benefits

Improved milk-letdown

  • Stimulation adapted to udder-filling
  • Reduction of bimodalities

Assisting udder health

  • Reduction of bimodalities
  • Reduction of cups-on time

Improved working-conditions

  • Improved processes for milkers as they are spending less time to provide manual stimulation
  • Fewer steps for milkers in parlours
  • In rotaries a one-person-operation is achievable („Go Solo“)

Why is it better?

The Balance between Push and Pull

  • 66% less walking distance[1,2]
  • 24% less preparation time[1,2]
  • 15 seconds less cups-on time[1]
  • 40% reduction in bimodalities[1]
  • >10% faster / -50 seconds last cow ready with flow-adjusted stimulation[1]
