Rotolactor
The Rotolactor is the first invention for milking a large number of cows successively and largely automatically using a rotating platform. It was developed by the Borden Company in 1930 and known today in the dairy industry as the "rotary milking parlor".
== History ==
The Rotolactor was the first invention for milking a large number of cows using a rotating platform. It was invented by Henry W. Jeffers.〔 The Rotolactor was initially installed in a "lactorium," a building specifically designed for milking cows, in Plainsboro, New Jersey.〔 The rotating mechanical milking machine was first used by the Walker-Gordon Laboratories dairy and put into operation on November 13, 1930.〔
Jeffers conceived the idea for the Rotolactor in 1913 as a cost-cutting and labor-saving method for milking a large number of cows. Development of the project was put on hold during World War I. In 1928, the Walker-Gordon Laboratories dairy was purchased by the Borden Company, and Rotolactor development resumed in earnest.
Borden provided $200,000 in 1929 for building the Rotolactor at the Walker-Gordon Laboratories dairy farm.
