BOU-MATIC PRINCIPLES OF GOOD MILKING!
Balance. All of the Bou-Matic Principles of good milking
are keyed to this concept. That is, precise balance of three
very important points: proper Vacuum, proper Inflations
and proper Pulsation.
Reduced to basics, the Bou-Matic VIP balance Concept
requires the proper combination of; (1) A smooth, rapid air
flow, governed by system-sized pumps and large diameter
milking lines; (2) safe, moderate vacuum levels, with
vacuum fluctuation at the teat end) and
Applying The BOU-MATIC Principles For PROPER VACUUM:
The goals: to design, install and operate your milking
system so as to eliminate as many adverse effects on the
cow as possible. Because high vacuum levels and fluc
tuating vacuum at the teat end are primary sources of
irritation, Bou-Matic greatly reduces or eliminates them.
Results: more milk from healthier udders
The means: low-level pipelines where possible, to allow
use of moderate vacuum levels. large capacity vacuum
Applying The BOU-MATIC Principles
For PROPER INFLATIONS:
Bou-Matic inflations complement the balanced per
formance of the rest of the milking system. So they help
reduce udder irritation and increase milk production.
They do so by design. Liners are scientifically formulated
to assure positive closure for proper teat massage and
blood circulation.
These features, and others, assure you that Bou-Matic
inflations won’t limit the capability of any other area in the
milking system
Applying The BOU-MATIC Principles For PROPER PULSATION:
The normal udder produces about 40 percent of
the milk in the front quarters, 60 percent in the rear.
Bou-Matic controls the pulsation
balanced milkout.
Alternating pulsation balances out the com
pression created in closing the liners, and back
washing against the teats is eliminated. In addition, it
helps stabilize vacuum at the teat end; inflations are
