Vink Calving Aid – 1800 Alternate Traction – Complete

The Vink Calving Aid – 1800 Alternate Traction – Complete is a professional calving aid designed to provide controlled, effective assistance during difficult calvings. Built on the proven Vink design, this model incorporates an alternate traction ratchet system, offering greater control when extra help is required.

The alternate traction mechanism allows the operator to pull each leg alternately with every stroke of the handle, rather than applying constant even pressure. This creates a natural wriggling action, which can help ease the calf through the birth canal and reduce strain on both cow and calf during challenging deliveries.

Like the standard Vink model, the aid is robust, reliable, and designed for repeated on-farm use, but the added ratchet system makes it particularly valuable where precision and controlled traction are essential. This can be especially useful in awkward presentations or slower progress calvings.

Supplied complete with an 1800mm shaft, featuring a 30mm section, the Vink Calving Aid – 1800 Alternate Traction – Complete provides excellent reach and stability while maintaining strength under load. The length makes it suitable for a wide range of calving situations across dairy and beef herds.

This calving aid is ideal for farmers and stockpersons looking for a high-quality, dependable tool to support animal welfare and improve outcomes during assisted calvings.
