Time for Cows (T4C)

Constant overview 

Lely T4C is specially designed for automatic milking with the Lely Astronaut. It also links to other Lely equipment, such as the Lely Vector automatic feeding system. T4C translates data from the barn into usable information for a clear insight into the results of your work. Reliable data that you can use to make the right decisions. For immediate operations in the barn among the cows or for the longer term. In both cases, business optimisation is key. 

It enables you to monitor constantly, act at an early stage and provide appropriate attention to cows that need it. It also helps you to optimise your barn routines and improve your business results. In addition to T4C Office for more strategic information, there is the T4C InHerd mobile version for day-to-day tasks.

For even more insight into the health of your cows the Lely T4C TotalHealth was developed. TotalHealth is a component of T4C that is specifically tailored to total cow health.  

TotalHealth attentions 

The first component of T4C TotalHealth we have released is TotalHealth-attentions. TotalHealth-attentions gives you even more support in your daily routines. In the blink of an eye, you will see which cow needs attention. This allows you to intervene in a faster and more targeted fashion. This improves the health per cow and in turn, your operating result. 

Improve cow health and save time 

Lely T4C allows you to take advantage of all the data collected by the Lely Astronaut milking robot during the milking process. TotalHealth-attentions even takes this a step further: the data is converted into a health analysis for each individual cow. From this analysis, a total cow health score gets computed. When a critical threshold is reached, this will be shown for that cow in TotalHealth-attentions. 

This makes it clear which cows really require attention. The health score will immediately show you the cause. This allows you to take action immediately, in a very targeted fashion. This could be a check in the management programme to separate the cow afterwards or a visual check in the barn. 

TotalHealth-attentions is available for free in T4C Office as well as in T4C InHerd. 

Thinking along about efficiency

With TotalHealth-attentions you can take even more advantage from milking with our milking robot. Even after a quarter century of automatic milking with the Lely Astronaut we keep trying to come up with ways to make work in and around the barn as efficient and pleasant as possible. Healthy cows are invaluable for this. We simultaneously strive towards optimal cow health and production.
