Servicing

Servicing is crucial in maintaining the efficiency of your milking machine by ensuring that wearing parts are replaced before they affect its performance and potentially herd health, milk quality and milk yield.

The service interval that is appropriate for your milking machine will depend on how many hours a day it is running: GEA Farm Technologies recommends a main service every 1500 running hours with a minor 750-hour service (comprised of liner change and vacuum check) in between. However, some parts only need replacing every 3000, 4500 or even every 9000 hours, and it is to your benefit that your service engineer knows which part should be replaced when:

South West Dairy Services Ltd offers servicing both on a regular contract basis (recommended to ensure consistent machine performance) Our service engineers are fully trained in all aspects of servicing, including GEA servicing procedures, to keep your milking machine, cows and milk in tip-top condition.
