Second Attachment Premilk Time
- To prevent over-milking of cows under second attachment pre-milk time of re-
attachment is shorter than the initial pre-milk time. This parameter allows enough time for
the cow to restart milking before the flow rate for removal is calculated yet is shorter than
the initial delay.
F5
parameter is automatically adjusted according to pre-set conditions in the table below:
If Time to first Removal ( T ) Then ā 2
nd
Attachment Pre-milk Time =
T< (F1*0.5) [half the value of F1] F1
F1>T>(F1*0.5) [half the value of F1] F5+āF1(Remaining time for F1)
T> F1 F5
Maximum Milking time
- Large farms milking around the clock are very dependent on milking time to acieve
optimal parlor throughput. In some situations very slow cows may delay milking of an
entire load to a critical operation problem. parameter enable setting a maximum
cluster-on time for slow cows thus preventing delays in milking.
