Overview

The ROVER is a completely autonomous feeding robot of 120 cu.ft. (3.4m3).

Why a feeding robot? Because it is capable of loading, mixing and of course distributing food to your animals without any human intervention!
Prepare up to 1000 Kg (2200 Lbs) Total Mixed Ration fully automated? Distribute your recipe to you animals in a precise and consistent way?

24/7 – You can count on your ROVER!

Fast and efficient, this feeding robot also pushes food back.

The ROVER will therefore allow you to manage your feeding in an automated way for your different groups of animals, even when feeding several times a day! The advantage of the feeding robot is to feed animals with a fresh and adapted recipe more frequently. This food management aims to optimize herd health and productivity – while reducing associated labour.
