“Jake's Milker Service of Watsontown, Pa. put in our Nu-Pulse
milkers for us in November of 1980. We have about 85 cows with
a 17,800 lb. herd average. We are very pleased with Nu-Pulse.
The unit is simple to use with just one hose for milk and vacuum.
The inflation life is much longer. Our mastitis has gone down to
a bare minimum. We get a much better milk-out now. Our somatic
cell count has gone down and production has gone up since
putting in the Nu-Pulse in our milking parlor.”
Are you ready for better milking, better udder health,
less fall off, less mastitis, more milk?
If so, call you local dealer today.
We’re ready to serve you are you ready?
