LactoCorder ®

LactoCorder® is the newest tool being used by QMPS to provide an integrated look at each dairy farm to help them increase milk quality and production.

What does it do?

Measures milk flow every 0.7 seconds
• Milk conductivity
• Rate of flow (lbs/min)


What can it tell us?

Milk flow analysis is a diagnostic tool that can show many things about the adequacy of milking procedures and the health of the cow. The milk flow curves can demonstrate inadequate stimulation of milk letdown, poor timing of parlor procedures, overmilking, liner squawks, ATO problems, etc.
