Cowsheds
After a 21 years expertise in various agricultural projects worldwide we decided to enter the field of dairy farming, bringing new innovations and futuristic work methods.
Breathing Shadow Roof system
The
climate conditions in Israel are characteristic with hot summer and low in rain
winter, on top of this are the physiological conditions of the cow, which cannot
sweat and has to reflect it's heat to the sky.
For these reasons we have developed a revolutionary solution in the cow sheds
industry which allows the full closure of the roof of the cowshed during rain
and the full opening of the roof during warm days.
The Breathing roof is a roof built as a blind
system, with fully controlled and automated opening and closing system.
This allows, on top of all the other benefits, to upgrade the living conditions
of the cow and give up open sheds, since the cow can still radiate it's heat to
the sky.
Pure benefits of the roof:
- Higher milk production
- More milk solids
- Less somatic conditions
- Dry and more sanitary stratum
- Less energy and stratum expenses
- No need with open shed
- Better climate and ventilation all year-round
- Smaller living area needed
- Rapid weight gaining
- Less respiration diseases
- Can be assembled on top of existing roofs
The CowCon
We have acquired knowledge and development of a
controlling system, which raises the level of the control field in many levels –
the CowCon.
The controlling system
is the fruit of development and experience of programmers and electronic
engineers that have
acquired their experience in the robotics industry and have improved a 10 years
working system with much success and under industrial conditions. The system is build as open and flexible platform,
self-programmable for all parameters without the need for a technician, and
remotely controlled if needed via computerized communication.
The system is of unlimited capacity and is designed to commit and future
innovations, in which every development or controlling idea can integrate
directly into the existing system without the need for extra controllers.
The CowCon is a smart controlling system for the management
of the milking in the cowshed. The CowCon, beyond creating a correct and normal
working action and its system malfunction recognition feature, also contains an
“artificial intelligent” feature which is used to bypass and fix malfunctions
and guard the proper quality of the milk at all times.
The system compatibles with international standards such as ISO 9002 and various
environmental standards.
The CowCon Operation
The cowshed control under the CowCon system produces the following features:
1. Faster and controlled cooling of the milk
2. Flexible and unlimited possibilities washing of the milk containers
3. Changeable, adjustable, flexible and affective shed washing
4. The washing of the suckers at the end of each milking
5. Climate controlled yard cooling
6. Exact weighting of the milk container
7. The control over the quality and quantity of milk coming out of the milk container
8. Automatic telephone malfunction massages
9. Daily/weekly action report and milk profile at regular bases
Other features of the system is the possibility to connect a remote station for controlling the cowshed from another building and attach a probe to the system that reports any attempt of cow theft from the shed.
Cowshed Cooling system
Our latest development is a unique
cooling system, using cooling pads similar to the ones used in greenhouses in
order to create a cooling effect in the cowshed.
By moving air using large fans, through wet cardboard cooling pads, and
spreading this air around the cowshed, we can lower the temperatures inside the
cowshed, and create a cooler and more suitable living area for the livestock.
This method is in use in several projects we've installed worldwide and proves
itself as an effective and efficient cooling system.
