Get somatic cell counts (SCC) results within two minutes of cupping with the Saber SCC at stall sensor.
The Saber SCC automated milk sensor reduces the effort of SCC testing by doing all the hard work for you. Real time data identifies which cows might be susceptible to mastitis. Integrates with Saber ID, Milk, Draft and Feed modules.
“Detection of sub clinical mastitis has saved me from culling two heifers from treatable mastitis, it has also allowed me use better dry cow therapy across the herd reducing my costs.”
How Saber™ SCC benefits your farm
Until recently, conductivity tests were the closest farmers got to detecting mastitis in the parlour, but this method of detection lacks accuracy. By providing real time data collection Saber SCC can give you a SCC test and confirm results before the cow has finished milking. When you install SCC sensors you can:
- Detect infections much earlier, and receive early warnings of clinical and sub-clinical mastitis therefore eliminating the need to strip the entire herd
- Reduce SCC levels in your herd
- Improve bulk SCC management
- Extend milking seasons due to improved selection of cows for dry off
- Increase profitability
- Use in-depth SCC reporting to select cows for Dry Cow Therapy thus reducing antibiotic use
- Reduce running costs – each test costs just 1 Cent (Euro).
How it works
Herringbone
- Saber SCC automatically tests 1mL of milk and determines the SCC result
- The results from the sensors and any alerts can be viewed on your smart device (or optional Touchscreen)
- The OWL flashing light system will alert you to the bail that an animal with a SCC is in
- With Saber ID, SCC results are automatically matched to the animal, without ID, milk results can be manually assigned using your smart device
- Review cow history and herd-level reports to make real-time decisions about your herd and manage mastitis and bulk SCC levels
“My herd cell count average was at 560,000 – since installing Saber SCC. I have reduced my cell count to below 90,000.”
