Milking and dairy machines

CPC v2.1 Code: 4413

About milking and dairy machines

cpc code 4413 covers the manufacturing of milking and dairy machines, a critical component of the dairy industry. This industry plays a vital role in the global food supply chain, enabling the efficient and hygienic production of dairy products that are consumed worldwide. As a key part of the agricultural machinery sector, the milking and dairy machines industry supports the dairy farming operations that are essential to many national and regional economies.

Production process

The production of milking and dairy machines involves the assembly of various mechanical and electrical components. This includes the fabrication of metal parts, the integration of control systems, and the testing of finished products to ensure they meet industry standards. Manufacturers in this sector utilize advanced manufacturing techniques, such as computer-aided design (CAD) and computer numerical control (CNC) machining, to optimize the efficiency and precision of their operations.

Production inputs

The milking and dairy machines industry relies on a range of raw materials, including stainless steel, plastics, and electronic components. Additionally, this industry requires specialized machinery and tools for the manufacturing process, as well as skilled labor to operate and maintain the production equipment. The availability and quality of these inputs are critical to the industry's ability to meet the growing demand for dairy products globally.

Production outputs

The primary output of the milking and dairy machines industry is the equipment used in dairy farming operations, such as 4411 Tractors, 4412 Agricultural and forestry machinery, and 4414 Food processing machinery. These machines are essential for the efficient and hygienic collection, storage, and processing of milk, which is then used to produce a wide range of dairy products, including cheese, yogurt, and butter.
