Abstract

The sanitation system for dairy farms is very significant in increasing the productivity and quality of cow's milk, holding on the cow-shed clean and ensuring the health of cattle. The paper presents the theoretical basis for the design of an arrow-shaped raking mechanism and the effects of mechanical properties of the waste on the quality of the cleaning system. The experimental investigation determines the speed parameter, the appropriate angle for the work, which depends on the type of the floor and the characteristics of the waste, to achieve the highest efficiency. The results provide the parameters to clean the farm effectively.
