Greenoak portable milking machines (portable milkers) for sheep & goats provide an efficient and convenient way of milking small herds or when milking is performed in a remote location.

The vacuum required for automated milking of the animal is created by a oil free vacuum pump driven by an electric motor. Should the portable milker be used in the fields with no electricity diesel drive is available (not shown). Each portable milker comes with a vacuum regulator and a gauge to ensure that proper level of vacuum is maintained during milking.

Pulsation in the cluster is created by a pneumatic pulsator fitted on the portable milker. This type of pulsator has been designed to meet simplicity, precision, sturdiness and reliability requirements. Pulsation rate can be adjusted using adjustment screw on the pulsator. Pulsation ratio is user-selectable. The table below contains recommended values for vacuum level, pulsation rate and ratio for milking sheep and goats using portable milkers.

The milk is collected in a sturdy stainless steel bucket for further transportation. Options with one or two buckets are available.

Portable milkers for sheep or goats come with either one or two clusters on board. 

Complete unit comes with all necessary fixings and tubing for easy assembly. All parts are securely mounted on a lightweight and yet strong and steady trolley which can be easily transported and requires minimal maintenance.
