confident: “With processing
equipment costing less than
$5OOO, our capacity planning
says you can handle 750,000
cows per month, comfortably.
That fits the largest DHIA’s in
the US-probably the world. In
Pennsylvania, our daily process
ing time went from 6 Vi hours on
the mainframe to 16 minutes, on
average, on the NT machine.”
So what’s next? “We need to
focus on a number of needs spe

pick up a certain amount of
slack, and we’ve also neglected
some of our efforts in our lab,

helped the development team by
putting their own time in to bal

have also been an important
part of our efforts to improve the
DRPC. To address their needs
