Labor-saving sort gate technology seamlessly integrates with the CowManager monitoring system

CowManager introduces Sort my Cow in the United States, the newest sort gate technology that combines labor savings, technology integration and operational efficiency.

After receiving alerts from CowManager ear sensors, Sort my Cow allows producers to automatically or manually via the app divert cows that need attention, all while maintaining smooth cow flow and minimizing disruption to the rest of the herd. Its double ID system ensures fast, accurate sorting, and the pneumatic-free design features minimal noise during operation, helping to reduce cow stress. Sort my Cow is standard RFID compatible and integrates with DairyComp and PCDART for easy sorting via the CowManager app.

“More than just a gate, Sort my Cow is a cow-friendly service that seamlessly integrates CowManager ear sensor monitoring with smart sorting technology to reduce labor needs, increase efficiency, shorten lock-up times, and improve cow welfare and profits,” says Gerard Griffioen, founder of CowManager. “With Sort my Cow, producers don’t have to search for a cow that needs attention. If she’s on the list, she’ll be diverted one direction while the rest of the herd goes the other direction back to their pen. We’re thrilled to launch yet another tool to help producers stay one step ahead.”

Sort my CowSort my Cow is crafted from premium U.S.-made stainless steel and uses electromagnets for locking, eliminating the need for a compressor. Built to last in extreme temperatures and tough conditions, it is designed with minimal points of mechanical wear and tear, ensuring durability and reliable performance. In addition, Sort my Cow is easy to install and requires only one day to set up the service.
