  • Dairy Sort Gate

    Dairy Drafter (Premium feature) 

    Powered by state-of-the-art technology for exceptional drafting accuracy with a unique, patented technology that reads the Tru-Test Active Tag without interference from electrical noise. Cows are automatically drafted as they exit the parlour during normal milking routines. 

    Engineered for strength and long-life, designed for maximum uptime on large herds milking 24/7. Unique soft close gates are gentle on cows, with bearing gate hinges for endurance and quiet operation. 
     

  • ID my cow

    ID My Cow (Premium feature)

    ID My Cow allows you to draft the right cow by identifying them through their Tru-Test Active Tag. Its drafting accuracy isn’t affected by high-interference environments or standard milking equipment such as variable speed drives.

    The accurate read technology doesn’t require line of sight with a reader or antenna, giving you the ability to easily action insights and focus your efforts on critical farm activities.
