Get your cows moving! Using automatic cattle drivers saves the operator from leaving the pit to chase cows in the waiting area during milking. Controlling groups is simple as the cows cannot mix while waiting. The gate keeps the individual groups seperate as they enter the waiting area one group after the other. 

The crowd gates have their own control units and continously nudge the cows forward. This results in smooth animal flow and hence decreases milking time and increases throughput considerably. 

There is a crowd gate for every type of dairy farm: The Promotion and Global crowd gates are pneumatically driven, whereas the Hydraglide  gates are operated hydraulically and can also be fitted with manure scrapers for the waiting area. CowMander 007 and CowMander 015 are electrically driven whereas the CowMander 600 and 700 lift the gate hydraulically and move it using and electrical drive. CowMander 600 and 700 are also available with menure scrapers.

The WestfaliaSurge cattle drivers can be fitted to waiting areas up to 15 metres wide and up to 45 metres in length.
