ReproductionThe decisive moments can be planned.

smaXtec detects estrus changes based on activity and rumination and recommends the appropriate insemination window for sexed and conventional semen. The key advantage is that smaXtec does not only support you with heat detection; it accompanies your cows throughout the entire reproductive cycle, from heat and to calving.

The insemination window clearly shows when insemination is most likely to be successful, when the probability of success decreases and when insemination is not recommended. Different recommendations apply to sexed and conventional semen and are displayed clearly.

With smaXtec, you can keep track of each cow’s reproductive status based on continuously collected data. Activity and rumination show whether an individual cow’s cycle is following the expected progression. If the cycle indicates a possible reproductive problem, the cow is automatically shown on a list for a check. This allows you to investigate unusual findings as early as possible and plan the next steps.

If a pregnant cow shows an unusual cycle, she is automatically shown on a list for checking. This can reveal possible abortions earlier, allowing you to investigate the situation and plan re-insemination if needed.

smaXtec detects impending calvings based on a slight drop in internal body temperature and informs you around 15 hours in advance. This allows you to move the cow to the calving pen if needed, prepare the calving area and arrange support early if complications are expected. Health alerts also help you schedule any necessary milk fever prevention at the right time. Indications of twin births or possible calving complications help you know to provide additional support.

Healthy cows are more fertile because health and reproductive success are closely connected. Around calving in particular, a strong start to lactation determines how well the cow enters her next cycle. Indications of possible metabolic problems such as milk fever or ketosis help you manage the transition period and the time after calving effectively. smaXtec supports healthier cows, better reproductive KPIs and the profitability of your farm.
