The new SURGE* One Touch" makes stanchion milking as easy as this.
A lightweight, gun-grip design integrates the milk line and pulsation
connections into one simple process. Yet it's built incredibly tough to handle
the real world demands of the dairy barn.
Most importantly, One Touch brings high-tech automation to stanchion operators
with two optional management modules.
The TIMEKEEPER'” II module signals you when the cow finishes milking and displays how
long she took to milk...promoting fast, consistent milking that leads to better udder health
The Milk Yield Module measures individual cow production and milking time, allowing instant
analysis of each cow's performance.
By putting today's production information at your fingertips, the SURGE One Touch lets you
capture your cow's performance in the palm of your hand.

children. You see, he is a house
