Reduce Herd Stress.
Improve Milk Performance.
Manual grooming is impossible at scale. Our industrial-grade automatic body brushes stimulate blood circulation and support improved milk yield performance by reducing stress and encouraging natural grooming behavior.
Why Commercial Dairies Install Active Grooming
Grooming is not a luxury; it is a critical component of herd health and productivity.
Stress Reduction
Grooming stimulates the parasympathetic nervous system, lowering heart rates and encouraging blood circulation to the udder, directly supporting optimal milk let-down.
Parasite Risk
Stiff nylon bristles effectively remove lice, mites, and caked dirt from hard-to-reach areas like the back and tail head, significantly improving hide hygiene.
Auto-Reverse Protection
Intelligent torque sensors detect excessive resistance (like a tail wrapping). The motor halts and reverses direction immediately to safely release the animal.
Choose Your Configuration
Available in vertical and 360-swinging designs to fit specific barn layouts and structural constraints.
Heavy-Duty Vertical Brush
Stationary & Indestructible
Designed for simple mounting on concrete walls or steel posts. Offers highly stable grooming pressure against the cow's flanks and neck.
- Feed lanes & open lots
- Existing solid wall structures
- Welfare retrofit projects
360° Swinging Brush
Maximum Body Coverage
Suspended via a universal joint, this brush swings in all directions, allowing cows to groom their own backs, heads, and hard-to-reach rumps with ease.
- High-yield freestalls
- Large loose housing barns
- Crossover alleys
Engineering Deep Dive
Built with industrial gearboxes and waterproof motors engineered in our Zhangjiagang facility to survive high-ammonia environments.
Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) & Planning Guide
Automated grooming is a low-CapEx, high-return investment. Evaluate the welfare and operational impacts before procurement.
1. Operational Savings & Barn Maintenance
Manual grooming for hundreds of cows is economically unfeasible. Without active grooming, cows resort to rubbing against barn infrastructure, causing expensive damage to freestall dividers and water troughs, while also risking hide injuries.
Installing one automatic brush per 50-60 cows minimizes these destructive behaviors, maintaining a calmer, safer barn environment while extending the lifespan of your heavy equipment.
2. Energy Efficiency & Lifecycle
The unit only consumes power when active. The internal micro-switch initiates rotation upon contact (or tilt). Once the cow walks away, the motor powers down after 10 seconds. The 180W low-consumption motor ensures electricity costs remain negligible, while the modular bristle design means you only replace the nylon heads every 1-2 years, keeping maintenance OpEx at a bare minimum.
3. Milk Quality & Udder Health Impact
Cleaner cows lead to cleaner udders. By actively removing manure dust and dirt from the cow's body, less debris falls onto the udder and into the freestall beds. This directly reduces parlor prep-time and lowers the risk of environmental mastitis pathogens, contributing to higher grade milk and potential quality premiums.
