DeLaval Flow-Responsive™ Milking
It's all about the flow
Why DeLaval Flow-Responsive™ Milking is better
DeLaval Flow-Responsive™ Milking uses actual milk flow to adjust milking parameters like vacuum and pulsation to create a more efficient milk flow profile.
DeLaval Flow-Adjusted Vacuum
Flow-Adjusted Vacuum speeds up the milk-extraction by lifting the vacuum level when high milk flow is available and then reducing level again once high flow has ended. This is avoiding the inevitable trade-off between udder-health and productivity that is created by a fixed vacuum level over the entire milking process.
It's all about the flow
The basis for milk flow and extraction is about cooperating with the cows' willingness to let go of the milk and when.
With Flow-Responsive Milking we utilise the cows' full potential without a negative impact on teat health and animal welfare.

DeLaval DelPro™
Decisions start here
We have built DelPro and its suite of sensors and applications to give you more control than we have ever given you before, by surrounding you with faster, more accurate access to valuable information, analysis and reports that will help you make better decisions on your farm.
DeLaval Rotary E500
The DeLaval Rotary E500 is designed to generate throughput efficiency. In everything from how the Rotary E500 works with cows' natural movements and physiology to how it makes it easy and safe for workers, the DeLaval Rotary E500 delivers advanced extraction, vacuum and pulsation settings for fast, gentle milking.
DeLaval Parlor P500
The DeLaval Parlor P500 allows you to do more on a smaller footprint, making it an obvious choice for high throughput, high efficiency dairy farms. This milking system represents the most significant evolution of parallel parlors. It is more than just a series of little changes – it represents a whole new approach to the task of moving your cows calmly, quickly and efficiently through the milking process.

Farm Profitability
With Flow-Responsive Milking you can make every second count. The ability to extract more milk than a conventional monovac system, in less time and with less labor is highly beneficial, particularly on large farms.
Work Efficiency
Flow-Responsive Milking makes it possible to streamline your milking processes to create simple, worker-friendly routines that save labor. Milk in less time or milk more cows per session, with less energy and less stress on your team.
Animal Welfare
Shorter milking times mean less stress on teats. FlowResponsive Milking may improve teat condition and udder health, for a healthy and productive herd.
Food Safety
Not only are all materials used with Flow-Responsive Milking food safety approved, but lower instances of mastitis from shorter milking times means more highquality milk is produced.
