It's no problem to keep the three old Lely A2 milking robots running in the barn
Keeping old milking robots alive can be a challenge. But it is a challenge that farmer Thøger Larsen, Kværndrup, is happy to take on. Especially after he got in touch with Milcotec, who, with creative fitters and an extensive webshop, makes it easy for him to maintain them.
Buy Used Parts and Support Forests
Now you have the opportunity to support forests!
Did you know that used and refurbished spare parts can be just as good as new and at the same time used parts have a significantly smaller impact on the environment than similar new parts.

Annual area cleanup day
Our annual cleanup day went really well this year, approx. 130 kg. trash and plastic collected in 2 hours!
Good, stable milking worth its weight in gold
A Southern Jutland dairy farmer got rid of two worn-out milking robots and replaced them with a used Mobistar milking system from Dairy Systems Danmark. It soon brought an increase in yield. Good, stable milking is worth its weight in gold! Dairy farmer Gerrit Damsteegt, 30, of Marinusminde Farm in Nørre Vollum near Bredebro, can attest to that.
Leasing two milking robots and saving liquidity
Henrik Hansen, a newly established milk producer near Gram, took over two worn-out milking robots that were too expensive to maintain. They have now been replaced with two used, refurbished Lely A2 milking robots, leased from Milcotec at a fixed rate that also includes spares, consumables and service parts.
Milcotec gets milking robots working in Sweden
A week after Milcotec’s service engineers first visited a Swedish dairy farm with robot milking, the number of daily milkings had risen from 1.7 to 2.4 per cow. And the cell count, which had been above 500,000, had begun to come down.
‘It takes no more than 4½ hours for Milcotec to get here’.
Low-cost milking in outdoor Mobistar milking parlour
At Tage Lausten’s farm in Loegumkloster, one worker milks 430 cows in 5 hours in a used Mobistar milking parlour with 12 clusters. ‘The Mobistar was cheap to buy and works really well in every way’, he says. Milking many cows does not necessarily require expensive, advanced equipment in order to work well from day to day - as Tage Lausten of Øster Terp near Løgumkloster can confirm. His total of 1,200 Holstein dairy cows live on two farms 5 kilometres apart.
Where the milking clusters are flushed after each cow
Milking is done three times a day at Grambogård, and it takes around 3 hours each time to milk the 430 or so dairy cows currently in the herd with 32 milking clusters – including start-up and cleaning.
Christian Stenskrog opted to have the DairyMaster milking plant fitted with the ClusterCleanse flushing system, as a lot of cows were to be bought from various herds for the expansion.
