In a rotary parlour the cow stands on a circular raised platform, allowing the farmer to attach the milking machine from below. The platform rotates very slowly, allowing cows to enter and exit the platform at regular intervals. Milking in a rotary parlour can be quicker than in traditional 'herringbone' parlours, especially for farms with large herds.
