Boumatic MR-S1 Milking Robot

The MR-S1 (single box robot) is a compact milking robot equipped with a well-organized technical area and a robotic arm. Using an industry-leading patented system, the single-box robot milks a cow between its back legs – smoothly, quickly and completely. This unique approach to milking between the hind legs provides direct benefits, offering the ideal milking experience for the cow, safety for the owner and protection of the system itself.

With the MR-S1 milking robot, milking becomes easy for both the cow and the milk producer. Each cow sets her own pace and decides when she wants to be milked. When entering the robot, the identification system recognizes her and decides whether she needs to be milked or not and how much concentrated feed she needs. The robot arm performs all operations from behind, moving between the back legs to get closer to the udder. Using the latest camera technology, the position of each teat is determined and the robot cleans and prepares each teat and then attaches the milking cups.

The robot arm completes the entire milking process within the included technical area. This starts with washing and pre-milking each teat using the special teat preparation cup (each teat is cleaned individually and pre-milking). Then the milking cups are attached and when milking is complete, the process ends with post-milking teat treatment.

Each step of the process is continuously monitored using sensors and measuring devices. Any deviations during the process are immediately and clearly signaled. All important data can be viewed via smartphone or tablet.
