What We Offer

Efficient Milking Solutions Built for Real Farm Conditions

Your Parallel Milking Parlor Manufacturer Since 1991

When our founder started Lactix in a small workshop in Qingdao, China, he had one goal: build milking equipment that actually works in real farm conditions. Today, we’re helping dairy operations from Wisconsin to Wellington milk more efficiently with our parallel milking parlor systems. Our parlors aren’t just machines – they’re the result of listening to thousands of farmers tell us what they really need in modern dairy equipment.

Herringbone Parallel Parlors

Remember struggling with cows backing out during milking? Our herringbone parlor design solved that problem for Johnson Dairy’s 600-cow operation. The angled positioning means faster entry, better udder access, and yes – happier cows in your milking system.

Side-by-Side Parallel Parlors

Here’s what surprised us about the parallel milking parlor description: dairy farmers told us they wanted to see every cow’s rear end clearly during milking. Sounds simple, right? That’s why our side-by-side design gives you perfect visibility for health checks while milking. Works brilliantly for herds over 500.

Rapid Exit Parallel Parlors

Ever counted how many seconds you waste waiting for cows to exit? We did – it’s shocking. Our rapid exit parallel milking parlor system uses pneumatic gates that release all cows simultaneously. One Minnesota farm cut their milking time by 35 minutes per session.

Double-Up Parallel Parlors

Space constraints? Join the club. Our double-up parallel milking parlor configuration literally doubles your capacity without knocking down walls. It’s like having two parlors in one – perfect when expansion isn’t an option, especially compared to rotary milking parlor alternatives.
Cream Storage Tanks

Swing-Over Parallel Parlors

Some days you’re milking 300 cows, other days 150. We get it. Our swing-over units adjust to your changing herd size. The clusters swing between both sides, addressing one of the common disadvantages of parallel milking parlor systems – inflexibility.

Parabone Parallel Parlors

This hybrid parallel milking parlor design started as a custom request from a farm in Australia. They wanted herringbone efficiency with parallel visibility. Three years later, it’s one of our most requested designs. Sometimes the best innovations come from farmer feedback.

Built for Your Farm, Not Ours

Every farm’s different – different cows, different workflows, different budgets. That’s why we don’t do “one-size-fits-all” parallel milking parlor solutions. Start with your herd size: we’ve built everything from compact 2×8 parlors for 200-cow operations to massive 2×50 systems for 3,000+ herds.
 
Got Jerseys? Holsteins? Mixed herd? We’ll adjust parallel milking parlor stall dimensions accordingly. Your cows’ comfort directly impacts your milk quality – we learned that the hard way.
 
Already using DairyComp or Afimilk? No problem. Our parallel milking parlor systems integrate smoothly with whatever management software you’re running. And yes, we can work with that old but reliable bulk tank you refuse to replace.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions of Parallel Milking Parlor manufacturers

I've got 400 Holsteins. What size parallel milking parlor do I actually need?
With 400 cows milking twice daily, you’re looking at a 2×16 or 2×20 parallel parlor. This handles about 120-140 cows per hour comfortably. But here’s the thing – if you’re planning to expand, go bigger now. It’s cheaper than retrofitting later.
Rotary milking parlor systems are great – if you’ve got a million dollars and a perfectly trained crew. Parallel parlors cost about 40% less initially, you can fix most issues yourself, and training new workers takes days, not weeks. Plus, you can actually see what’s happening with each cow.

Absolutely. We spend 3-5 days on-site after installation. Your team learns everything: daily operation, cleaning protocols, basic troubleshooting, and those little tricks that make life easier. We also leave behind videos in Spanish or English – whatever your crew needs.
Two years on all parallel milking parlor equipment, including the expensive stuff like pulsators and control panels. Wear items like liners and rubber parts are 6 months. But here’s the kicker – we provide lifetime phone support. Call us in year 10, we’ll still help troubleshoot.
