4. ROBOTICS
4
• Robotics is a branch of
engineering that involves the
conception design manufacture
and operation of robots. Robots
are programmable machines
which are usually able to carry out
a series of actions autonomously,
or semi-autonomously.

• Robotic or automatic milking systems (AMS) are
becoming increasingly important in dairy farming
• Automatic Milking Systems (AMS) milk cows any time
without the need for a human worker to be present
• Cows choose when to be milked and detailed data is
recorded by the robot which can be accessed remotely
by computer or mobile device

13. CONCLUSION
• Robotics has the potential to become next frontier in the food industries
• Manual handling of foods is not going to end soon, but still the acceptance of
automation and robotics in the industry is increasing
• Robots are populating the food industry in increasing numbers as processors
intensify their continuing, relentless search for faster, more economic methods of
production that will enable them to satisfy the insatiable demands of modern
retailers and the rapidly changing lifestyles of consumers
• Robots increase the safety process and decrease the chances of downtimes
or production shortfall, thanks to their reliability and availability
