Milk Meters are an important management aid on any dairy farm. With regular use they provide information on which to base feeding, breeding and culling decisions. Quick, easy, finger tip activation triggers automatic agitation and ensures an accurate milk sample is taken every time.

The Waikato Speedsampler is a robust device that simplifies milk sampling for component analysis. It uses the metering head of the Waikato MkV Milk Meter to accurately measure milk yield. It is available either as a complete unit or as the milk sampler only ready to fit to an existing MkV Milk Meter. The Waikato Speedsampler fits into the long milk tube between each milking unit and the milk pipeline. It directs a fixed proportion of the milk extracted from the cow directly into a calibrated flask. Reading the flask gives the cow’s milk yield.

The Waikato Speedsampler is provisionally approved by ICAR for use as a herd recording device. It is easy to install with a range of portable mounting options available. It will measure milk yield up to 42kg (92 lb) per cow and cleans in place at the end of milking.
