Walk-Through Headbail

The wide opening design of the C1000 Headbail has no obstructions for a cattle beast to trip or stumble on as it is exiting. The sheeted doors also provide a visual barrier. When the doors are partially open the floor to ceiling gap encourages the animal forward. This headbail uses a simple quiet friction locking system that automatically locks in any position, to ensure your cattle work is easy and comes with an unbeatable Lifetime Warranty on the Headbail Lock System.

Compact Sliding Gate

This innovative gate design features a compact top rail that minimises any protrusion into the working area and also an auto-lock latch to prevent the cattle from muzzling the gate open.

Anti Slip Backing Bar System

This innovative system prevents the backing bar from slipping out sideways and causing an injury to the operator. Traditionally when an animal is in the cattle crush any tail-end sideways movement could cause the backing bar to be pushed sideways out of the crush, sometimes at considerable speed potentially causing injury to the operator.

Rubber floor

They are quieter and handling cattle quietly has many benefits, including improved weight gain and greater safety for operators. Having a rubber floor provides a more natural surface for cattle to stand on and they are also easy to clean and disinfect if required. Finally a rubber floor helps prevent slips which can cause the animal to panic and allows your stock to walk with confidence.

The Rubber Floor is standard on the Lenta MR and MX models. Lenta MS models have a steel floor

The Lenta Range

The Lenta Crush is the ideal crush for small to medium herds that require basic yet safe and efficient handling. Capable of handling all sizes of cattle with ease, the robust Lenta Crush is specifically designed for a one-person operation to provide fast, easy and accurate weighing and handling.

Lenta MX Crush

PARALLEL SQUEEZE PUTS YOU IN CONTROL

The Lenta MX Crush Squeeze System moves the side gates together to reduce the animal compartment from 750mm to 410mm and is operated with an easy-to-use horizontal lever at the front of the cattle crush. The Squeeze System moves the gates upwards on a vertical linkage helping provide support to the animal – ideal for calving. This system is excellent for weighing young stock as it helps prevent them turning around. The Squeeze System is also ideal for larger animals when calving or undertaking breeding procedures as it prevents unwanted animal movement.

Options & Accessories

Offside Draft Handle

The offside drafting handle allows the operator on the working side of the crush to open and close the offside gate by way of an overhead handle located at the rear of the crush. This allows cattle to be drafted directly out of the crush without the operator having to leave the working area. This handle is optional on all models.

Straight Yoke Attachment

The Straight Yoke Attachment option is great for calves that may not be tall enough to be held comfortably in the usual headbail.

Which gate system do I need?

The Lenta Crush with the 3 Piece Gate (that has an integrated eRail EID reader) is the ultimate for handsfree weighing and recording. However if you already have an EID Wand or Panel reader then the Lenta with 2 Piece Gates is probably a more cost effective solution. If you run smaller numbers and cattle are quiet then the Lenta with 1 Piece Gates is the most affordable option. However it is worth considering the sheeted and split lower side gate that is standard on the 2 Piece Gate model. The sheeted gate prevents an agitated animal from putting its leg through the rails and the split gate option allows you to open just the lower half of the gate i.e; to attend to a hoof etc...
