Range of models
Designed and manufactured in New Zealand for your specific farming type - there’s a model for every operation.
Compact Sliding Gate
This innovative gate design features a compact top rail that minimises any protrusion into the working area and also an auto-lock latch to prevent the cattle from muzzling the gate open.
Anti Slip Backing Bar System
This innovative system prevents the backing bar from slipping out sideways and causing an injury to the operator. Traditionally when an animal is in the crush any tail-end sideways movement could cause the backing bar to be pushed sideways out of the crush, sometimes at considerable speed potentially causing injury to the operator.
Offside Draft Handle
The offside drafting handle allows the operator on the working side of the crush to open and close the offside gate by way of an overhead handle located at the rear of the crush. This allows cattle to be drafted directly out of the crush without the operator having to leave the working area. This handle is optional on all models.
Upgrade to Parallel Squeeze
The Te Pari Squeeze System moves the side gates together to reduce the animal compartment from 750mm to 410mm and is operated with an easy-to-use horizontal lever. The Squeeze System moves the gates upwards on a vertical linkage helping provide support to the animal – ideal for calving. This system is excellent for weighing young stock as it helps prevent them turning around. The Squeeze System is also ideal for larger animals when calving or undertaking breeding procedures as it prevents unwanted animal movement. The Squeeze System is operated by an easy-to-
Walk-Through Headbail
The wide opening design of the Te Pari C1000 Headbail has no obstructions for a cattle beast to trip or stumble on as it is exiting. The sheeted doors also provide a visual barrier. When the doors are partially open the floor to ceiling gap encourages the animal forward. This headbail uses a simple quiet friction locking system that automatically locks in any position, to ensure your cattle work is easy.
Rubber floor
They are quieter and handling cattle quietly has many benefits, including improved weight gain and greater safety for operators. Having a rubber floor provides a more natural surface for cattle to stand on and they are also easy to clean and disinfect if required. Finally a rubber floor helps prevent slips which can cause the animal to panic and allows your stock to walk with confidence. Thats why a rubber floor is standard on all models of Te Pari Cattle Crushes
eRail Dual Gate EID Reader
The patented Te Pari eRail ‘dual gate’ system is an EID antenna that is integrated into the 3 piece crush side gate system. The eRail system provides a large read field ensuring all stock are read accurately, even those moving quickly or with their head down low. As the antenna is actually part of the steel gate, it is extremely robust and there are no visual or functional restrictions that can be caused by retrofitted panel readers.
