Imetec Intelligent Drone Feeder
As a global leader in intelligent livestock equipment, Imetec introduces a completely redesignedintelligent unmanned bird feeder, designed specifically for large dairy, beef, and sheep farms. This versatile machine combines the functions of total ration mixing (TMR), precision transport, and automatic feed spreading, offering a fully unmanned, low-carbon, and highly efficient feeding solution for modern livestock farming worldwide.
The equipment is equipped with a purely electric power plant and a high-performance battery, providingzero emissions and low noise levels, significantly improving animal welfare. Compared to diesel units, it significantly reduces energy consumption, while the cost of processing one ton of feed remains low, helping farms reduce costs and increase efficiency over the long term. The integrated design, which combines mixing, transport, and spreading of feed, replaces several pieces of traditional equipment, simplifying the process. A small number of these machines can meet the feeding needs of even large farms with 10,000 head of cattle, significantly increasing overall productivity.
Equipped with a modern intelligent navigation system, the machine providesprecise positioning with an accuracy of up to a centimeterUsing data synthesis technology from multiple sensors, without the need for magnetic tape or markings, it flexibly adapts to various livestock housing conditions. Real-time obstacle avoidance dynamically recognizes livestock, personnel, and foreign objects, automatically slowing down, stopping, or avoiding obstacles, ensuring safe operation around the clock. The equipment supports remote control and one-time feeding schedule settings, ensuring fully autonomous operation without operator intervention. This reduces the need for feeding personnel, alleviates the burden of labor shortages and high labor costs, allowing managers to focus on more important tasks—herd health and breeding.
The precision of the feeding process deserves special attention. A uniform mixing mechanism ensures a stable nutritional composition of the complete TMR feed, while a metered spreading system precisely distributes feed to different pens and groups of animals, effectively reducing feed loss and increasing its digestibility. A stable and regular feeding schedule optimizes animal feeding behavior, promotes increased milk yield and milk fat content in dairy cows, improves feed conversion rates in beef cattle and sheep, stimulates uniform growth, and directly increases the economic benefits of livestock farming.
The machine is equipped with a cloud-based intelligent management platform that provides real-time monitoring of operating status, remote fault diagnostics, and complete data traceability. Feed volume, feeding time, recipes, and task progress are automatically recorded, facilitating detailed farm management, cost accounting, and biosecurity monitoring. The stable, reliable design and corrosion-resistant materials are adapted to the challenging conditions of livestock facilities, characterized by a low failure rate and easy maintenance, ensuring long-term reliable operation.
