The Advantages of the Intelligent Feeding Pushing Robot Developed and Produced by Imetec

As a high-tech enterprise with 26 years of experience in the animal husbandry equipment field, the intelligent feeding pushing robot developed and produced by Imetec takes "precision, efficiency, ease of use and adaptability" as its core. It breaks the monopoly of imported technology, meets the actual needs of large-scale pastures, and becomes a core equipment for pastures to reduce costs and increase efficiency. Its advantages are concentrated in four dimensions: intelligent technology, scene adaptability, efficiency improvement and service guarantee. It is suitable for various pasture scenarios with outstanding practicality and cost performance.

Intelligence and high efficiency, realizing unattended operation is its core highlight. The equipment has been upgraded to be equipped with a high-precision laser radar navigation system. Compared with the traditional ultrasonic navigation, it has better positioning accuracy and stronger environmental adaptability. Relying on 360° omni-directional perception and high-precision point cloud scanning, it can quickly and independently build a 3D environmental map of the cattle house, achieve millimeter-level precise positioning, and more sensitively dynamically identify moving cattle herds and obstacles and avoid them quickly. The zero-blind-area design can avoid collision risks in narrow cattle house gaps, without the assistance of magnetic strips or QR codes, and the deployment is convenient and efficient. It can conduct regular inspections according to the preset route, real-time monitor the feed distribution through sensors, and immediately start the double helix feeding pushing device to evenly push the feed back to the trough when feed overflows at the edge of the trough. The pushing efficiency exceeds 98%, and the residual feed rate is reduced to 2%-3%. At the same time, it has an automatic charging function. When the power is insufficient, it can automatically return to the charging base, without manual intervention throughout the process, realizing 24-hour uninterrupted operation. A single machine can cover the feeding needs of 500 dairy cows, completely replacing the traditional manual shoveling and liberating labor costs.

The cost reduction and efficiency increase are significant, taking into account economic benefits and breeding quality. In terms of labor, one robot can replace 4 workers, saving a single pasture about 42,000 yuan in labor costs per year and alleviating the industry's labor shortage; in terms of feed, high-frequency and uniform feeding reduces feed waste by 12%-15%, saving 80 tons of TMR feed per year and reducing breeding costs. At the same time, uniform feeding makes the cattle herd's feeding more regular, the dry matter intake increases by 2%-3%, and the milk yield increases by 3%-5%, taking into account breeding benefits and animal welfare. The low-noise operation mode can also reduce the stress response of the cattle herd.
