The milking machine should remove the available milk from the cow's udder gently, quickly and completely.
BouMatic Robotics B.V. is a dynamic Dutch company which focuses on introducing robots into dairy farming. The knowledge and many years of experience in milking technology goes back for generations in the sister company BouMatic. This enormous amount of knowledge and experience has been acquired by BouMatic Robotics in a series of modern robots which have been deployed globally in the dairy cattle industry. There has been a continual emphasis on the balance between man, cow and technology.
BouMatic Robotics products are developed, produced and supported entirely in-house. Because BouMatic Robotics does everything itself, it can operate flexibly and the highest quality can be continually guaranteed.
In its own 5000 m2 factory in Emmeloord, in the centre of the Netherlands, the various systems are built and assembled. Here a team of experts passionately manufactures the robots with great precision. The BouMatic Robotics standards system ensures that quality is safeguarded and that the client is guaranteed a perfectly functioning end product. Each robot leaves the factory completely tested and is ´plug and play´.
BouMatic Robotics develops, creates, markets, services and supports robotic milking technology for the modern dairy farmer.
The technology is being developed all the time. Just as the wishes and needs of the end user. We are able to offer more and more efficient and animal-friendly systems by taking the initiative and accepting the challenge.
BouMatic Robotics has a team of robot engineers and scientific researchers with a passion for milk production and robotization. This department is continually looking for product development. This means in practice that the end user gets a lot of concrete advantages.
With its products BouMatic Robotics ensures that the dairy farmer has more to win: more peace in the cowshed, more peace in the family, more time for other things that matter both private and business, but also more peace for body and soul due to less intensive manual effort.
