  1. 1. Virtual Sensing for Cluster Vacuum Control

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

    Author : Carl Egenäs; Axel Sacilotto; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The purpose of this project was to develop a virtual sensing model in order to estimate the vacuum level in the milking cluster with data collected further along the milk tube. Measuring the cluster vacuum level is desirable for many applications, such as control and monitoring, but due to the cow's tendency to kick, chew and stomp on anything within reach, placing a sensor in or close to the cluster is both difficult and impractical.

  3. 2. Juverhälsa i automatiska mjölkningssystem

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Biosystems and Technology (from 130101)

    Author : Liv Alm; [2018]
    Keywords : juverhälsa; celltal; mastit; automatiska mjölkningssystem; hygien; juverhygien; mjölkningsintervall; juverhälsoindikatorer; kotrafik; sintidsperiod;

    Abstract : Mastit är ett vanligt problem i svenska mjölkkobesättningar och är den främsta sjukdomsorsaken i svenska besättningar vilket kan bli kostsamt för mjölkföretaget. Man har i olika studier sett ett samband mellan höga celltal och besättningar med AMS. READ MORE

  4. 3. Milking-time test : methodology and assessment of vacuum recordings during machine milking of dairy cows

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Animal Nutrition and Management

    Author : Dragana Lazović; [2016]
    Keywords : milking machines; milking-time tests; milking vacuum; sampling frequency; dynamic testing; dairy cow;

    Abstract : The aim of the study was to improve the basic understanding and the methodology of routine milking-time testing by determining the required sampling frequency and number of cows and milkings needed to be measured in order to yield representative results. Milking-time tests represent the most direct method to validate the system vacuum of a milking machine, both the aptitude of vacuum production and the vacuum regulation throughout the system.

  5. 4. Vad kan man göra för att minska energiåtgången vid mjölkningsarbetet?

    University essay from SLU/Rural Buildings and Animal Husbandry (until 121231)

    Author : Magnus Lindgren; [2007]
    Keywords : mjölkproduktion; energiåtgång; besättningsstorlek; mjölkningsteknik; energiförbrukning;

    Abstract : Lönsamheten i dagens mjölkproduktion är hårt pressad. Mjölkpriset har inte följt med kostnadsutvecklingen. Dagens högteknologiska mjölkproduktion förbrukar mycketenergi. Ungefär 40 - 50 % av energiåtgången står mjölkningen för. READ MORE

  6. 5. Är korta spenar ett problem i samband med mjölkning?

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Animal Nutrition and Management

    Author : Anna Israelsson; [2006]
    Keywords : spenar; mjölkning; mjölkkor; mjölkkvalitet; juverhälsa;

    Abstract : In some herds it has been observed that extremely short teats have become a problem; with a negative influence on the milking performance. The aim of this study was therefore to investigate to what degree the quality of the teats and the milk in cows with short teats is affected as compared with cows with normal teat length and furthermore if the milking performance could be improved by using a liner adapted to short teats.
