Keypad and Pull-cord:

The primary role of staff in-shed is to milk cows!  Any management system should not interfere or distract from this primary role. MilkHub's in-shed management is easy to use and reliable, while still providing powerful tools that really make a difference in the shed.

Along with the MilkHub Keypad and Pull-cord the Broadcast Screen provides your in-shed staff with an up-to-date view of your herd. This information details cows that are likely to have mastitis, low yield or been selected by the Online Management System for attention.

The aim of the MilkHub Keypad and Pull-cord is to keep in-shed information access simple. With the use of MilkHub's “built for purpose” user controls you and your in-shed staff can take a deeper look at specific cow information, make changes to cow information or adjust pending actions on the fly.

For example: When cow 210 walks onto the platform you hear an alert, and see on-screen that she is part of the recovery cow group and is milk-withholding. From here you can bring up that cows details and make an informed decision about what to do next; implement further treatments, draft her out of the herd for further inspection or milk her out and integrate her back into the herd.

By using the MilkHub Keypad and Pull-cord to bring up relevant cow information in a timely fashion, your staff’s attention is focused on their primary task of milking cows while at the same time informing them to important events. ...more
