AutoRotor Capri 90

The AutoRotor Capri 90 from GEA Farm Technologies is a side-by-side rotary milking parlor for goats that meets the highest demands. Ergonomically positioned equipment will make things easier for the operator; animal-friendly milking places and a well thought out milking system provide optimum comfort for your goats, and help increase productivity. The AutoRotor Capri 90 is a total solution: from the milking stall, through milking equipment, to the professional dairy-management-system, designed especially for goats. The AutoRotor Capri 90 is available with 24, 32, 40, 48 and 64 places optionally obtainable as single-round-operation, with surrounding railing or with retention arm in multi-round-operation.

Easy access: no stress
The tapering entry rails ensure that the goats enter the rotary milking parlor in an orderly manner. As they enter the box, the walk-through identification system is an efficient way of identifying the animals (optional).  A manual or automatic closing gate closes and opens the entry box. Thus enables a convenient control on movement of animals as well as a convenient animal and group change.

An agreeable milking atmosphere
Cluster and control units are positioned right at working height. As milking starts automatically it is not necessary to push a button. The cluster can be positioned without any delay and you will obtain high milk efficiency and a high throughput.
The platform of the rotary milking parlor is made from a non-slip material so that your goats have a safe surface to stand on. Robust place dividers ensure that milking takes place calmly. Do you prefer a hands-on approach? No problem: because you have a complete overview right next to you (thanks to the milking and parlor control unit) you can step in quickly if you need to.

Work and cost effective 
A selection area (optional) in front of the exit allows the direct selection of animals from the platform.
A separate selection is not necessary.
