Trigon parlor - 32 stall
Kibbutz Barkai, Israel / 

 

 

This " Trigon " milking parlor has three cow platforms, two entrances and two exits, with one point where cow entering and exiting - cross each other.

This concept is actually a kind of rotary parlor where the milkers move around. The smaller number of cows on each platform, improves efficiencies.

We designed three large units and at the Ein Hachoresh parlor, Prof. Dennis Armstrong clocked 192 cows / hour with two milkers.
Also in the design of milking of milking parlors, there are periods where some ideas pop up and become fashionable and later on just disapפear.
