1. INTRODUCTION
The ASTRONAUT A3 Next Milking Robot is part of an automated milking
system that milks, feeds, and monitors the health of cows. The milking
system also examines the quantity and quality of the milk received from
the cows, and if necessary, it separates milk that is contaminated or not
to the correct standard.
A transmitter on each cow enables the system to identify the cow via a
unique number, and a management system maintains specific records
for each cow. The milking system uses these records to manage the
milking and feeding of a cow when it enters the milking robot.
The milking system has four primary parts:
• The milking robot (one or more)
• The milk storage tank
• The control system
• The compressor.
Optional part is the MQC-C for the cell count.
The automated milking system has three operator interfaces:
• The X-Link interface to control the ASTRONAUT A3 Next
• The CRS+ interface to control the cleaning and reporting system from
all connected ASTRONAUT A3 Next milking robots
• The T4C management system to manage the herd and to manage
and control the milking system and all connected optional systems.
