Hoofcount - Model Standard - Footbath

SHARE
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 standard Hoofcount Footbath is up to 3m long and 800mm (internal) wide. This bath allows 2 dips per hoof and is used mostly in smaller herds and especially off Robotic systems.

All Hoofcount baths come with the same control box as standard.

This having 2 chemical pumps to allow a farmer to alternate chemical solution. The Footbath may be operated using the Cow Counter, a timer, or manually. A farmer can decide how much Chemical and which chemical to use on different days. Good footbathing practice is seen to be ‘little and often’. This being everyday, the chemical ratio in the bath may be as low as 1.5%.

We have also released another new product called the Spray wave. This new spray bar ensures the bath is washed out from top to bottom and will push any excess muck out of the bath during the washing our process. This product can also be fit to existing baths but comes as standard to new ones.

’In addition to the Footbaths, we supply the iCAM. This is a touch screen control box which is most beneficial to customers with more than one footbath on farm. By controlling all footbaths from one central box, a farmer may change setting on all the Footbaths at the same time and ensure that all the footbaths are working in exactly the same way.

This new control system allows other professionals such as Vets, Hoof-trimmers, Herdsman to input data regarding lameness. The system may then decide on the correct chemical/chemical mix to add to the bath in order to best deal with lameness. The ICaM can be purchased with a new Footbath or added to an existing Footbath.
