2 PRODUCT RANGE CLUSTER - We have developed the most modern cluster to make milking more efficient, healthier for the animal and better for the dairy farmer LINERS - The revolutionary triangular mouthpiece vented liner SHELLS - Specially designed for Impulse Air triangular liners - Exceptionally lightweight and latest contemporary design 2 /

3 ...The biggest advance in the milking process in a generation... Mouthpiece vented liners will give balanced air flow to reduce the forces on the teat and improve milk-flow for: HEALTHY MILKING DRY TEATS through efficient milk removal and no splash back IMPROVED TEAT CONDITION: reduced teat ringing, reduced teat congestion, reduced hyperkeratosis IMPROVED HERD HEALTH through reduced SCC and mastitis levels / 3

4 EXCEPTIONAL COW COMFORT GENTLER MILKING will give relaxed parlor conditions. Animals are more comfortable and less stressed. LIGHTER WEIGHT CLUSTERS, which are easier on the cow and the milker. TRIANGULAR LINER TECHNOLOGY to reduce slips and kick-offs All leading to improved parlor conditions Your animal will feel the difference 4 /

5 IMPROVED MILK QUALITY BALANCED AIR FLOW to give less milk turbulence and improved milk flow EASIER MILKING to reduce SCC and mastitis levels IMPROVING MILK QUALITY to increase farmer revenue You will feel the difference / 5

6 HOW DOES WORK? PULSATION AND VACUUM CURVES THROUGH THE MILKING CYCLE - AT LOW FLOW Mouthpiece vacuum - with the vent Mouthpiece vacuum - without the vent Vacuum in the claw Pulsation curve The system is a unique milking assembly. We introduce the air into the system behind the milk to give a more even vacuum drop through the system. All milking systems need vacuum to pull the milk away from the teat - but this vacuum can also damage the teat. The mouthpiece vent reduces this effect. INCHES OF MERCURY (inhg) VACUUM (kpa) LOWER FORCES ON THE TEAT THROUGHOUT THE MILKING CYCLE will give lower teat congestion and overall better teat condition TIME (SEC) Most damage occurs to the teat at low milkflow. The vented liner system reduces the vacuum forces on the teat throughout the milking cycle. 3 NO MILK SPLASH-BACK will reduce any risk of teat cross contamination 6 /

7 Triangular liners provide a three way massage for a gentle action on the cow s teat. The impact resistant shell has a triangular shaped interior to reduce the total air volume between the shell and the liner. This leads to a more responsive opening and closing of the liner, which optimizes the milk and the rest phases of pulsation. GENTLE MASSAGE ON THE TEAT BETTER GRIP TO THE TEAT LESS LINER MOVEMENT GIVING GENTLE OPENING AND CLOSING PHASES LIGHTER WEIGHT CLUSTERS FOR LESS STRESS ON THE TEAT Locking antitwist feature and improved slippage control Revolutionary air entrance showing reduced vacuum acting on the teat Impact Resistant Shell IMPULSE TRIANGULAR COMBINATION / 7

8 INDEPENDENT TESTING AND FARM TRIALS We work with independent testing authorities to establish scientific farm trials so that you can be sure of the results. With these authorities we have established the effects of vacuum and pulsation on output and teat health - and then compared these results to a standard round liner. COMPARISON OF SWOLLEN RING & BLUE TEAT 25 The results are clear: MUCH REDUCED INCIDENCE OF TEAT DAMAGE WHEN USING.AT ALL VACUUM CONDITIONS SWOLLEN RING & BLUE TEAT (%) This allows us to optimise your milking machine and improve conditions for you and your animal Through these test results we have been able to develop much more detail of the vacuum and pulsation conditions that will improve milk output whilst improving teat health. CLAW VACUUM kpa Round Liner Teats were inspected after milking at various vacuum conditions. At all vacuum conditions the system improves teat condition.

9 PROVEN TO REDUCE SOMATIC CELL COUNT AND MASTITIS Long term test results show significant herd improvements, improving milk quality and lowering of costs. MCC-Vlaanderen is an independent Milking Control Organisation working in Belgium. They picked 20 well-managed farms and then assessed conditions before and after fitting Impulse Air. Results were recorded over a period of a year. These were the results: SOMATIC CELL COUNT REDUCTION OVER ALL FARMS REDUCTION IN CLINICAL MASTITIS IN 12 OF 20 FARMS, WITH THE REMAINING 8 FARMS AT THE SAME LEVEL REDUCTION IN LIPOLYSE GENERATION ACROSS ALL FARMS (FROM AN ALREADY LOW STARTING POINT) REDUCTION IN TEAT DAMAGE ON ALL FARMS REDUCTION IN HYPERKERATOSIS ON ALL FARMS (All results and test protocol are available on our website / 9

10 INTRODUCING THE THE LATEST ADDITION TO THE IMPULSE AIR CLUSTER LIGHT WEIGHT ERGONOMIC AND UNIQUE DESIGN MAKING IT EASY TO HOLD THE RADEL MATERIAL MAKES THE CLAW HIGHLY IMPACT RESISTANT IDEALLY SPACED NIPPLES FOR OPTIMUM CLUSTER POSITION AND BALANCE 360 MILK FLOW VISIBILITY 10 /

11 BETTER AND EASIER GRIP ANTI-TWIST MECHANISM TO KEEP THE LINER CORRECTLY POSITIONED TRIANGULAR INNER PROFILE TO REDUCE THE AIR SPACE BETWEEN THE TRIANGULAR LINER AND THE SHELL. THIS MAKES THE LINER MORE RESPONSIVE TO THE PULSATION SIGNALS DESIGNED TO TAKE VARIABLE WEIGHT RINGS SO THAT YOU CAN TAILOR THE WEIGHT OF YOUR CLUSTER LIGHTWEIGHT TO REDUCE STRESS ON THE COW - AND THE HERDSMEN / 11
