Additional features for efficient rotary operation

With a wide range of equipment options and thoughtful rotary accessories, your T8600 milking system can be perfectly tailored to the individual needs of your operation - for maximum efficiency, safety, and profitability.

Feeding System:

Precise feed dispensers for stress-free feeding: Up to 4 solid and 2 liquid feed components can be dosed optionally. The durable stainless steel feed bowl is easy to clean and perfectly suited to the needs of modern dairy breeds. Clearly defined feed troughs with head dividers reduce stress during feeding. Anti-theft plates ensure that each cow has access to her individual ration. This perfect ergonomic design allows your cows to eat their ration conveniently and completely.

“2nd round” / GoAround Option:

This feature allows you to gently hold individual cows on the deck for a second round, enhancing milking efficiency or enabling quick rechecks if needed.

Turn-While-Wash:

The optional Turn-While-Wash concept allows the milk line system to be washed through the rotary swivel without the hassle of connecting the platform to wash hoses, saving additional time at the end of each milking shift.

GEA EgoFloor Lift Floor Option:

Thanks to optimally adjustable working heights, the system adapts to any body size, ensuring maximum comfort during daily tasks.

iSPRAY Teat Spraying System with Leg Positioning:

Options for pre- and post-spraying, along with effective leg positioning aids, allow optimal udder preparation, attachment, and care. This ensures the best possible udder health and teat care.

Future Cow:

Provides the most reliable and consistent teat preparation for any herd size. It combines multiple pre-milking processes in a single step: wash, disinfect, stimulate, and dry. Furthermore, the udder illumination offers great visibility during the process. Professionally installed and serviced by GEA dealers.
