Overview
The benefits of diamond wheel grooving include:
- Grooves are cut using diamond blades – engineer approved, no hammering, no stone chips or shards
- Improved traction for cows
- Grooved floors can dry faster
- Cows can show heat because the superior traction does not inhibit mounting
- The required movements of stepping up, stepping down, walking and turning are supported
- Older high producing cows stay in herd longer
Customers tell us that culling in grooved new barns can be reduced from an average 15% (without grooving) to less than 3% (with grooving)
Our machines are custom made for maneuverability and the ability to cut 1⁄2" wide or 3⁄4" wide grooves, at a minimum of 1⁄8" deep. Our machines cut at 4" centres to ensure that there is enough floor surface to support the cow's hoof. A standard water garden hose is all that is required for hookup. The cutting operation is dustless, this allows your barn to continue operations while we work.
