Ambic launches new, improved AIAlert™ Extra Heat Detectors

/by

Ambic is coming to market with a new, improved self-adhesive heat detector with improved sticking power and improved visibility, based on new patented ‘Channel and Chamber’ technology. The unique design of AiAlert™ Extra allows both side panels of the detector to ‘colour up’ after the central pressure sensitive bubble section has been activated by the pressure exerted on the cow by bulling behaviour. The detector has a built-in time delay mechanism which means it requires approximately 3 seconds of mounting activity before it is activated.

In Heat? Yes, but how far?

Subsequent mounts force the dye through channels into the chambered side panels. This gives the farmer increased visibility and an even stronger indication that multiple mounts have taken place.

If the dye has not migrated to the side panels it may be that the cow has only recently come into heat and insemination might be best left to the next milking, however, if the side panels are fully coloured the cow has most likely been bulling for some period of time and insemination may need to take place sooner.

Key features:

  • New, Improved self-adhesive design for superior adhesive strength
  • Simple yet effective application – minimal preparation and no messy glue
  • No pre-heating of patch required in cold conditions
  • Progressive indication of mounting heat activity
  • No experience required to interpret reading
  • Moulds easily over the cow’s backbone
  • Large surface area for better adhesion and improved visibility
  • Time-delay module focuses on true mounting heat to minimise false positives
  • One person application
  • Available in packs of 10 and 40

Ambic Introduces New MultiFoamer Plus™ To Its Foaming Dip Cup Range

/by

In response to customer demand for an improved foaming dip cup with the ability to adjust the foam quality to suit the characteristics of the particular foaming chemical being used, Ambic has developed a new premium version of its MultiFoamer™ foaming dip cup which has the following key features:

  • Two woven meshes for primary foam generation
  • New, third stainless steel mesh welded into the body of the dip cup to optimise the foam structure in the final foam formation phase
  • Set of three different screw-in mixer valves to vary the ratio of air to chemical in order to be able to make the foam either wetter or drier, thus varying the amount of chemical applied

Like the original MultiFoamer™, the new MultiFoamer Plus™ is easily dismantled for ease of cleaning between uses and has a protected air intake to minimise particulate contamination.

Customised versions of the new MultiFoamer Plus™ are available to suit individual foaming teat dip chemicals. Consult Ambic for further details.

EasiFoamer update released to the market

/by

Ambic has released an update to the EasiFoamer which includes a number of product improvements and new features designed to improve the overall functionality of the system and to facilitate installation.

  • Firmware revisions include amendments to the settings parameters for Sleep Mode and Run Time
  • The bore of the peristaltic pump tubes has been reduced to reduce the number of pump start/stops during operation to reduce the overall load on the pressure switch
  • A Non-Return Valve with uptake filter has been added to the system to ensure the pump(s) stay primed at all times
  • In-line filters have been added to protect each of the liquid non-return valves in the system from contamination as an additional feature
  • A ‘Quick Start’ Guide will be included with all future systems to highlight common installation errors and to provide additional assistance with the installation process
  • Op Notes have been updated to reflect the above changes
