Hoofcount - Footbath
The Hoofcount Standard Footbath is designed specifically for smaller herds and is particularly effective with robotic milking systems. Measuring up to 3 meters in length and 800mm in internal width, it facilitates two dips per hoof. The accompanying control box includes dual chemical pumps, allowing the farmer to alternate chemical solutions, enhancing flexibility and efficacy in foot care routines. The bath operation can be controlled via a Cow Counter, timer, or manually, providing various options for different usage scenarios. Effective footbathing is recommended on a 'little and often' basis, with chemical ratios as low as 1.5% for daily application. An additional component, the Spray wave, helps keep the bath clean by washing out muck and ensuring optimal operation. The iCAM control box supports centralized management of multiple footbaths, integrating data from various sources to optimize chemical mixes and treatments, thereby addressing lameness effectively. This comprehensive solution can be integrated into new or existing footbaths, offering flexibility for farm operations.

The Hoofcount Excel Footbath System is designed for large herds exceeding 200 cows, with a length of up to 3.7 meters and an internal width of 600 millimeters. This system enables three dips per hoof and is particularly beneficial for herds using rotary milking systems. Constructed with durable stainless steel side sheets, the bath prevents chemical leakage and ensures cows cannot step out of the bath. The system comes standard with a control box equipped with two chemical pumps, allowing farmers to alternate chemical solutions as per their needs. Operation modalities include a cow counter, a timer, or manual activation. Optimal footbathing practice is frequent, with chemical ratios as low as 1.5%. Additionally, the system features an innovative Spray Wave bar that ensures thorough cleaning by pushing excess debris out of the bath. The iCAM touch screen control box is available for farms with multiple footbaths, centralizing control and enabling data input from professionals like vets and hoof trimmers to manage lameness effectively.
