for a 100-cow farm
Numerous benefits for both cow and breeder
The Magellan range: soft, non-slip floors
Visit Magellan floor range has been designed to respect cows' natural physiology, with feet adapted to soft floors. Standing and walking on hard floors are not recommended. against nature and can lead to trauma, locomotor dysfunction and excessive horn growth, particularly among primiparous, genetically less prepared to produce good footpads.
Thanks to its flexibility and its drainage grooves, Magellan floor coverings prevent injuries responsible for foot pathologies, while at the same time promoting continuous drainage of liquids. Result: a surface drier, less slippery, limiting the risk of falls and associated injuries.
By reducing the stress caused by unstable ground, cows are able to move more freely. more serenely, remain in better health and express their full production potential. Studies show that a farm equipped with Magellan can gain one full lactation per 100 cows, while observing a improved fertility rate.
At the same time, the building's overall hygiene has been improved, limiting the proliferation of bacteria and fungi. bacteria responsible for dermatitis as the Mortellaro's disease or the cherry, and protecting animals with skin lesions on the foot.
Magellan, is the choice of a high-performance, comfortable and hygienic floor for herds in top shape for lasting results.
Magellan® 16: the solution for slurry robots
To keep pace with the boom in robotic vacuum cleaners, and to meet the needs of the farms that install them, we have developed a thinner version of our Magellan® 25 draining rubber flooring: Magellan® 16.
With its 16 mm thick, this coating retains the main advantages of Magellan while offering a optimal compatibility with slurry robots. His profile at longitudinal grooves is perfectly cleaned by specially adapted brushes that can be attached to the robot.
The Magellan® 16 represents the ideal compromise for Magellan® comfort, drainage and hygiene, while enjoying the daily efficiency of a robotic vacuum cleaner.
Features
- Installation zones : circulation corridor, waiting area, milking parlour, in front of the milking robot.
- Anti-slip for the safety and well-being of cows, more confident about their balance.
- Compatible with all types of cleaning automatic, robotized, tractor, etc.
Magellan®: a complete solution to meet the natural needs of hooves
Flexibility comparable to natural soil
- Cows' hooves have been shaped by evolution to walk on soft, loose, vegetation-covered ground.
- Hard, concreted soils disrupt this natural adaptation, causing disorders such as chronic inflammation of the distal phalanx, the formation of bony excrescences and sole ulcers.
- Magellan® soil reproduces the qualities of natural soil, offering a soft, shock-absorbing surface. It increases the area of contact with the ground, enabling better weight distribution over the whole hoof, and reduces pressure points responsible for internal foot lesions.
The end of sliding
- Groove spacing calculated in relation to hoof width, to lock the hoof in any situation.
- Patented, totally non-slip surface profile.
