Professional Sorting Gate Manufacturer
Since 1991, we’ve helped farmers take control of their herds with sorting gate solutions that deliver reliability. Lactix’s livestock management systems are engineered for farms that demand equipment that works as hard as they do.
Efficient Sorting Gate Solutions for Modern Dairy Farms
Back in ’91, we started Lactix with a clear mission: build sorting gates and animal handling equipment that actually solve problems instead of creating new ones. Three decades later, our team still gets their boots dirty understanding your farm automation technology challenges before designing solutions. We’ve developed cattle flow control systems that withstand the real world of unpredictable animals and harsh farming conditions.
Manual Sorting Gate
Simple and reliable, our manual sorting gates offer manual control for easy herd management, ensuring smooth transitions without the need for complex technology.
Pneumatic Sorting Gate
These gates use compressed air for efficient, automated sorting. Designed for precision and quick operation, they are ideal for high-volume dairy farms.
Hydraulic Sorting Gate
With hydraulic mechanisms, these sorting gates provide powerful, reliable performance, allowing smooth and quiet sorting of livestock in high-demand environments.
Automated Sorting Gate
Our automated sorting gates incorporate advanced sensors and automation technology, providing hands-free sorting to reduce labor costs and improve herd management efficiency.
Rotary Sorting Gate
Designed for rotary parlors, these gates ensure smooth and precise sorting of cows during milking, enhancing workflow and reducing delays.
Programmable Sorting Gate
Our programmable sorting gates can be customized to specific criteria, offering flexibility and automation in herd sorting for efficient operation tailored to your dairy’s needs.
Customizable Herd Management Systems Built for Real-World Farms
Built Farm-Tough
Our test unit has sorted over 75,000 cattle and still uses all original components. That's the dairy farm equipment durability difference you can count on.
Practical Innovation
We don't add technology just to add cost. Every feature in our livestock management systems solves a real problem reported by multiple customers.
Animals Stay Calmer
University studies confirm our low-stress designs reduce cortisol levels in livestock during handling. Our animal welfare equipment is good for the animals, better for your bottom line.
Made For Your Operation
No more adapting your workflow to fit your equipment. We build sorting gate solutions around how you actually work, not how engineers think you should.
Real People, Real Support
When you call us, you talk to someone who knows your cattle flow control equipment, not a script reader. Many of our support team came from farming backgrounds.
Three Decades Strong
We've outlasted five "revolutionary" competitors because we focus on evolution instead – steady improvements to our farm automation technology based on your feedback.
