The milking solution should not prolong this, just because you have, not one but e.g. one thousand animals. The par-lour must provide easy in – quick attachment – efficient milking – and easy out. We designed the SAC sheep and goat milking solutions with this in mind – and made it gen-tle to the animals and easy-to-operate.

OPTIMAL WORKSPACE FOR YOU AND YOUR ANIMALSNot only do we care about the comfort of your animals, we also care about you. You need an ergonomically optimal and comfortable working space – ensuring that you can work efficiently and fast. In a SAC milking parlour you are always close to the animals during milking. Avoiding long stretches and providing everything within easy reach.

Your animals also need an environment that is sound and where it is easy to move in and out. Giving them enough space, our milking solutions are designed to let you milk more than a thousand animals per hour. The more effi-cient you can do the milking, the more cost-effective It is.

EASY MAINTENANCE TO STAY PROFITABLEThere are very few things more frustrating than a milking parlour out of order, when you have hundreds of animals who needs milking. But still, you do not want to spend hours every day cleaning and maintaining the milking parlour. We know this, and we design our milking solutions both robust and with easy cleaning and maintenance. It keeps your costs of ownership low by limiting your main-tenance costs.

Just how many sheep and goats do you need to milk per hour? It is all about efficiency. Milking a sheep or a goat does not take long.

For 12 years, the Boisseau family has milked with SAC equipment and they emphasize the reliability and ease-of-operation. Recently, they have upgraded their milking parlour and are fully satisfied with the coorpora-tion with their local dealer Ets Clément. The mounting and service were very efficient and of high quality.

They upgraded the existing 2x20 side-by-side parlour to a 2x30 side-by-side with 60 IDC1s and quick-start. They also installed a Unipump (vacuum pump) improving the milking process and it operates with minimal noise. For the Boisseau family the robust equipment, high dura-bility and the good service from the local dealer makes the difference.
