SCR/Allflex Heatime HR LD

By SCR/Allflex

Last reviewed: December 2025

Heatime HR LD is SCR/Allflex's advanced heat detection system using neck-mounted activity tags with rumination monitoring.

Overview

Heatime HR LD combines activity monitoring with rumination sensing to detect heat events with high accuracy. The neck-mounted tags continuously monitor cow behavior and identify the activity patterns associated with estrus.

The system provides not just heat detection but optimal insemination timing, which is critical for maximizing conception rates. By tracking the progression of heat, Heatime can indicate when the ideal breeding window occurs.

Integration with the DataFlow II management platform provides comprehensive analytics and connects heat data with other herd management information.
