Crushes and Handling
HTL Hybrid Hooftrimming Crush


The HTL Hybrid Hooftrimming Crush provides the perfect combination between hydraulic and electric, ensuring advanced cow and trimmer comfort along with the sought-after lift system. From the hydraulic Texas style head gate, through to the hydraulic back bar and with five electric hoists for the legs and bellyband lift, this crush combines maximum safety with ease of use and high through-put. The added advantage of the market-leading hydraulic lift system takes this crush and your trimming to a whole new level! Check valves ensure the stability and safety of the crush when lifted, with flow dividers guaranteeing an even and reliable lift. The large diameter tubing on the head gate increases cow comfort and the fully opening exit means there are no obstacles to manoeuvre over on the way out. The hydraulic controls allow this gate to be feathered to suit the smallest of heifers up to the largest cows. The wide rubber bellyband folds nicely around the cow and is located to ensure a comfortable support position. The hydraulically operated, over-sized spring assisted back bar sweeps down behind the cow and holds hind legs firmly but comfortably. The extended floor to the rear and the rear leg deflectors increases the safety of the operator and prevent the cow being able to step outside of the crush. Rear gate catches allow you to latch gates to the crush to provide a continuous funnel for loading, with optimum cow flow.
