SYLCO - Herringbone Milking Parlor with Rotary Exit
The Herringbone milking parlor offered by SYLCO is an optimal solution for farms needing up to 24 milking points. This classic configuration allows side access to the udder, providing ample space for the milker and facilitating thorough visual inspections. The construction, designed with ergonomics and safety in mind, features special support brackets that secure the structure to the walls, eliminating vertical supports in the milker's pathway. This design reduces the risk of accidents, such as hand injuries from animals and supports a more fluid working environment for the milker. The structure is robust and available in hot-dip galvanized steel or full stainless steel versions, enhancing durability and longevity. All SYLCO milking parlors can be equipped with feeding mangers and optional dosing systems, which can function independently or be integrated with a central processing unit. The rotary exit system improves parlor efficiency by 20% compared to traditional systems, allowing animals to exit swiftly and calmly. The rotating exit mechanism ensures animals do not get trapped, thus enhancing their comfort during milking, and can be adjusted based on the size of the animals.

SYLCO HELLAS - Moving Cascading Stalls for Sheep and Goat Milking
The Moving Cascading Stalls are designed for efficiently managing operations in livestock farms, particularly those housing between 150 and 600 sheep or goats. These stalls accommodate parlors with sizes ranging from 12 to 72 positions, configured in either single or double rows. The system is capable of handling throughput rates between 150 to 450 animals per hour, requiring only 1 to 3 operators for optimal function. Key features include cost-effective installation and minimal maintenance. The operation of entrance and exit gates, as well as the moving trapping system, is facilitated by specially designed air cylinders. Animals use the same gate for entry and exit, thereby simplifying the process. The stalls are constructed from durable hot-dip galvanized materials and equipped with aluminum headlocks, capable of withstanding rugged farm conditions. Additional features include stainless steel feeding troughs and air-operated gates, with a conveniently located control box within the milking pit. The feed dispensing system utilizes a robust screw conveyor and gear motor to provide accurate and efficient feeding, eliminating the shortcomings of systems with plastic parts and ensuring precise feed amounts with a single button press for hassle-free operation.

SYLCO - Sheep and Goats Feeding Table
The VKS 3000 Sheep and Goats Feeding Table is designed for efficient feeding and robust functionality within agricultural environments. Constructed from hot-dip galvanized steel with heavy-duty, stainless steel exterior surfaces and aluminum head locks, it is built to withstand the harsh conditions inside barns. The table can accommodate feeding six animals per running meter and supports various feed types, including hay and concentrated feed, which can be loaded manually, by auger, or using a mixing wagon. The loading area is located outside the animal enclosures, ensuring cleanliness and accessibility. Space-saving design eliminates the need for feeding corridors and it can serve as a partition wall for animal cells. Its innovative feature includes a self-locking mechanism for individual animals, activated when animals lower their heads to eat. The table also supports group feeding and is controlled via a central panel with easy adjustments for loading speed. Additionally, users can switch between continuous loading and auto-advancing systems to ensure continuous feed availability. The table’s locking mechanism operates in three positions—open, locking, and closed—to suit different operational needs. This system enhances feeding efficiency while allowing for other tasks like veterinary examinations without additional farmer intervention.

SYLCO ULTRAsoft - Mattresses for High-Producing Animals
The SYLCO ULTRAsoft mattresses are designed to meet the comfort and hygiene standards necessary for high-yielding livestock while adhering to modern animal welfare regulations. These mattresses potentially increase milk production and improve overall animal health by providing a thick 10-12cm layer of cushioning material. This soft layer offers significant thermal insulation, creating an illusion for the cattle as though they are walking, lying, and standing in a meadow. The mattresses' core, consisting of pure rubber grains, repels moisture and minimizes the risk of bacterial growth. Each mattress, surpassing 100kg per meter in weight, consists of interconnected rubber bags that maintain their shape over time. These bags are enclosed in a durable sheet, securely fastened with screws, facilitating breathability and an anti-skid surface. This combination ensures ease of maintenance and cleaning. Farms using these mattresses often experience improved milking efficiency, reduced mastitis, and enhanced milk quality.
