Abstract: A rotary parlor for automatic milking of animals includes an annular rotary platform (2) adapted to form a support surface for the animals (1), driving element (9) for supplying a rotary motion to the platform (2), positioning element for arranging the animals in predetermined milking positions (3) on the platform, in which an longitudinal axis (1a) of the animals forms an angle to the direction of motion (1b) of the animals standing on the rotary platform (2), and a robot arm (13) adapted to attach teat cups (7a) to the teats of an animal (1) which has entered a milking position (3) on the platform (2). The entire robot arm (13) is located in a working position vertically above or on the platform (2) when it attaches the teat cups to the teats of the animals (1).

Abstract: Provided is a method of providing an opto-electrical assembly. The method comprises attaching a second electrical element to a carrier using a second attachment region at a second attaching temperature. The second attaching temperature is associated with the melting temperature of the second attachment region, such as the melting temperature of solder or the like. The carrier already comprises a first opto-electrical element having been attached to the carrier using a first attachment region at a first attaching temperature, whereby the first attaching temperature is associated with the melting temperature of the first attachment region. The method is provided such that the second attachment region has a lower melting temperature than the first attachment region such that the second attaching temperature is lower than the first attaching temperature.
