Technidrive delivers 1,000 dairy control systems

Technidrive, a provider of intelligent drive and control systems, has reached a milestone with the delivery of its 1,000th bespoke control solution to the dairy sector. With technologies such as TechniVac and TechniFlow, designed and engineered in-house, the company’s systems have become recognised for energy-efficient milking and milk transfer. TechniVac is Technidrive’s vacuum pump system, adapting output to meet real-time demand during milking. By significantly reducing energy use, up to 60%, it ensures consistent vacuum performance in a compact hygienic design. Meanwhile, TechniFlow optimises milk transfer using true variable speed control. Its controlled flow helps maintain milk quality, reduce refrigeration costs and minimise water usage. It offers compatibility across 95% of existing dairy setups and installation time of under six hours.

“Reaching the 1,000-systems milestone reflects the consistent demand for more intelligent, energy-efficient solutions in dairy operations,” said Andrew Ritchie, technical sales manager at Technidrive. “Farmers are facing increasing pressures from rising energy costs and the need to adapt to ever-evolving industry standards.

“TechniVac and TechniFlow have been developed in collaboration with farmers and processors to solve real operational challenges, from energy consumption to milk quality and uptime. This kind of feedback-led engineering is what drives continued adoption across the UK, Ireland and further afield.”

Across UK and Irish farms, the systems have delivered energy savings of up to 55%, enhanced milk cooling, reduced equipment wear and improved milk quality. The technology has proven effective on farms facing unreliable power supplies or using legacy fixed-speed systems.

Technidrive’s success is built on its close relationships with regional partners, who provide installation, training and ongoing technical support. This model ensures that dairy farmers not only receive high-quality products but also benefit from expert guidance throughout the lifecycle of the system.
