Milk Chilling Unit

Additional Details

India is the largest milk producer in the world but only 20% of its milk production is being processed. In order to boost their milk procurement, many dairies have setup societies or collection centers in the rural areas. This has assured a remunerative price and market support to the producers.


The traditional system of milk collection by the Dairy Cooperative societies included mainly to accept milk by volumes, carrying out fat testing and entering the fat and SNF data manually in the registers.


This at times resulted in unreliable data, possible malpractice leading to loss of fat.


To improve the quality of milk and bring transparency in the milk collection function automatic milk collection centers are installed by the dairies. The Automatic Milk Collection Station is an integrated system which combines the several functions of a milk collection centre. It measures the weight, fat content & gives the price of the milk brought in by each supplier. This system operates both on battery and main and is able to process and record 120-150 ltrs milk collection per hour.


The main component of an automatic milk collection system are:

    Electronic Milk Weighing Unit
    Electronic Milk Tester
    Data Processing Unit



The membership code of individual members are entered manually through an electronic keyboard. The AMCS interfaced with a personal computer can maintain the complete record of all transactions of the society.
