Heavy-Duty Headlocks.
Control Every Cow Safely.
Lock 100 cows in under 1 minute. Engineered with silent rubber buffers and emergency safety releases, our hot-dip galvanized headlocks make vaccinations, breeding, and health checks a stress-free, one-person operation.
Why Commercial Dairies Choose NexAgri
Engineered to eliminate the chaos of herd checks, reduce noise stress, and guarantee every cow receives her ration.
Cows Managed in Minutes
Turn a multi-person cow-catching operation into a one-man job. Lock the entire row with a single lever pull for rapid AI or vaccination protocols.
Emergency Safety Release
Integrated "Down-Cow" bottom release. If a cow slips, operators can instantly open the lower pivot point, allowing the cow to safely release her head without injury.
Zinc Coating
Hot-dip galvanized inside and out after the welding process. Withstands highly acidic silage and manure environments for a 20+ year lifespan.
Herd Size Configurations
Select the appropriate head space and panel design based on the age and breed of your herd.
Mature Cow Headlocks
600mm - 750mm Head Space
Designed for lactating Holsteins or large breeds. Standard panels feature 4 to 5 head spaces per 3-meter section to prevent overcrowding at the feed bunk.
Adjustable Heifer Headlocks
500mm - 550mm Head Space
Features a manually adjustable neck width setting. Perfect for growing heifers or smaller breeds like Jerseys, preventing animals from backing out.
Engineering Specifications
Precision manufacturing in our Zhangjiagang facility, built to withstand the physical demands of high-traffic commercial environments.
Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) & Planning Guide
Feeding infrastructure pays for itself rapidly by optimizing labor hours and eliminating feed waste caused by herd competition.
1. Labor Savings via Mechanization
Managing herd health without headlocks requires separating cows, chasing them into holding pens, and restraining them individually. With our system, you simply rotate the master control handle to "Arm" mode. As cows come up to eat their fresh ration, they lock themselves in automatically. One operator can then perform vet checks, AI (artificial insemination), or vaccinations on dozens of cows in a fraction of the time.
2. Feed Intake & Competition Reduction
In open feed bunks, dominant cows bully submissive heifers away from the fresh ration. Headlocks guarantee every cow has a designated spot at the feed table, ensuring equal dry matter intake (DMI) across the entire herd and supporting more consistent dry matter intake.
3. Veterinary & Down-Cow Safety
Traditional rigid fences present a severe choking risk if a cow collapses. NexAgri's emergency bottom-release pin allows you to instantly drop the lower bar, enabling the cow to easily slide her head out while lying on the ground, protecting your valuable livestock assets.
