DeLaval VMS™ V310
With all the great features of DeLaval VMS™ V300 and the ability to automate pregnancy checks and heat detection during milking with DeLaval RePro™. The VMS V310 provides advantages that will extend to future generations of your herd. With progesterone based sampling and analysis, full pregnancy and heat detection can now be done automatically during the milking process.
- Automated pregnancy checks
- Detects silent heats
- Labour Saving Data
- Confident decisions made for reproductive performance
DeLaval RePro™ features
DeLaval RePro turns the ultimate milking and animal welfare system into a reproduction management tool as well. By providing a clear picture of each animal’s reproductive status, progesterone levels are taken automatically in milk samples. All critical reproduction questions can be answered automatically with notifications within your DelPro Applications. All of this adds up to healthier cows, reduced vet costs, improved AI costs. Having cows become pregnant at the right time will result in more productive lactations – which means more value for the farm.
- Automatic pregnancy check
- Detect abnormal reproduction cycles
- Accurate heat detection, including silent heats
- Ability to reduce reproductive drugs
DeLaval RePro™ benefits
Data is a powerful tool and when analyzing the DeLaval RePro progesterone graphs on specific cows, it will give you the right information at the right time. The progesterone data is especially useful for cows with abnormal heat cycles and when the herd is going through a hot weather stretch where visual signs of heat are not as apparent.
- Progesterone is measured in milligrams (mg) and a baseline is set to show level of reproductive cycle
- Breeding alerts are listed on DelPro Monitor board for easy access
- Breeding alerts available in a report for staff and AI technician
- Cystic cow alerts are listed so they can be dealt with sooner
- Testing strips are used based on time of calving to confirmation of pregnancy
Increase herd pregnancy rate
Tom and Christie Wytock of Doral Farms, Teeswater, Ontario use their knowledge of cattle reproduction along with the V310 RePro to increase their herd pregnancy rate. Farming on Tom’s family dairy and Christie as a DVM gives them the confidence to show others the value of DeLaval RePro.
DeLaval RePro™ explained
Pete Bos, of Bosdale Farms in Cambridge, Ontario, shares a powerful testimony of how the HN100 RePro unit has been useful on their farm. Bosdale Farms milks with 3 DeLaval VMS V310s.

- Manage routines
- View cameras
DeLaval InSight™
When you observe a DeLaval VMS in operation there are two things that strike you immediately: how calm the cows are, and how gently and smoothly the robotic arms go about the repetitive tasks of cleaning, preparing, treating, attaching and spraying. The key technology that makes this possible is DeLaval InSight. What you see is the smoothest, fastest and most accurate arm that we’ve ever created. Driving this performance is the interplay of our most sophisticated camera, hardware and software ever seen in a milking environment.
- Smoother and faster
- Two nozzles for sprays
- Self learning
DeLaval PureFlow™
It all starts with preparation - DeLaval PureFlow doesn't just clean teats, it also prepares them. Using the exclusive transparent cup that lets you to see the action, each teat is individually cleaned and stimulated to improve let-down and productivity. Add to this the separation of pre-milk, which is removed to a waste container via a separate line, and fully adjustable settings including the ability to add soap for enhanced cleaning, and you have the ultimate preparation. Once milking is complete, the cup is fully flushed and cleaned as part of the comprehensive cleaning routine that is automatically carried out by the VMS.
- Better hygiene
- Stimulation
- Adjustable settings
