CapriTwin milking cluster for goats and OviTwin for sheep: gentle and efficient milking in systems with high-level lines.
You can choose between two products:
Both milking clusters are designed to suit the special udder shape of these animals. The benefits of both varieties are identical: They milk your animals gently and quickly and ensure high milk quality. They are perfectly suited for systems with high-level lines. They can either be operated manually or in combination with a milking controller.
The CapriTwin and OviTwin milking clusters for sheep and goats are made from durable materials that last a very long time. GEA uses silicone for its teat cup liners which adapts to suit the shape of the animals' udders, is resistant to acids and still fits perfectly on the udder after a number of years of use. The hoses are also made from high-quality silicone. The remaining components, such as the milking shells and claw, are made from impact-resistant, transparent plastic. You get a durable, long-lasting product that also provides excellent visual control over the milking process. You can instantly spot any problems that occur during milking. To ensure the equipment stays hygienic, the surfaces of the CapriTwin and OviTwin are smooth and easy to clean.
The CapriTwin and OviTwin milking clusters are specially designed to ensure that milk flows away quickly, ensuring high milk quality. To do this, the milking cluster features an air inlet beneath the milking shell that ensures there is a constant stream of air towards the claw. You can easily switch off the vacuum at the milking shell when milking under manual control. The integrated electronics also allow you to control the equipment with a milking control unit such as the DemaTron or MetaTron. Automatic milking is also completely hassle-free with the CapriTwin and OviTwin milking clusters. And the milking process is always gentle on the animals due to its low vacuum strength.
As a system provider, GEA can design a Total Solutions concept for your dairy. CapriTwin and OviTwin are easy to combine with other components from GEA. This modular system ensures that the solutions adapt to meet your requirements, and not the other way around.
GEA centrifuges enable wastewater reuse, resource recovery, and water security by turning biosolids into value in a world facing growing water scarcity.
Last year was not a year of hyped-up headlines for alternative proteins. Perhaps that is precisely why it was an important year for food biotech, the biotechnology behind everyday foods and ingredients. While the sector worked through a difficult funding environment, approvals were still granted, pilot lines set up and new platforms tested in the background. In short: headlines are turning into infrastructure. Frederieke Reiners heads GEA’s New Food business. She and her team work at the intersection of biotechnology and industrial food production. In this interview, she takes us on a world tour of food biotech in seven questions.
