AutoSelect: automatic sorting for herd management

Individual animals can be separated from the herd on a number of criteria. AutoSelect is the premium animal selection system for effective, reliable and easy sorting in combination with the FeedSelect selection gate.

AutoSelect puts control of the animal selection process at your fingertips. GEA provides a range of different automated systems to help you separate individual animals or groups efficiently, quickly and reliably. Here is the GEA overview of the key characteristics of animal selection using the various AutoSelect systems:
