Abstract: A crop-processing device with a picking-up and cutting device for picking up and cutting an agricultural product. The crop-processing device furthermore has a discharge duct for discharging cut agricultural product from the crop-processing device, in which discharge duct first and second rotating accelerating elements are arranged for conveying the cut agricultural product through the discharge duct by contact with the cut agricultural product. The peripheral speed of the second accelerating element is greater than the peripheral speed of the first accelerating element. As a result, the acceleration up to the desired discharge speed, and thus the discharge of the product, is more uniform. Furthermore, the device requires less power than known crop-processing devices.

Abstract: A milking installation comprises a compressed air system with a compressed air line, a pneumatically controllable cylinder and a compressed air pump for supplying compressed air for the cylinder. The compressed air system comprises a dew point sensor for measuring the dew point of the compressed air and for emitting a dew point signal that is representative of the dew point. The milking installation may comprise or form part of a milking robot for automatically connecting teat cups to the teats of a dairy animal.
