FETF Grant – DeLaval OptiDuo™ Robotic Feed Pusher

15th October 2025

Don’t just push feed, remix it with DeLaval OptiDuo™, DeLaval’s most advanced robotic feed pusher.

Instead of compressing feed, the robot remixes it – making it much more appetising for cows. Ideal for farms operating a once-per-day feeding frequency.

  • Dual-action: repositioning and refreshing feed automatically
  • Able to move big amounts of feed
  • Operates safely

Automated feed pushing improves productivity

Regularly moving feed back onto the feeding table makes it more accessible to cows, but it doesn’t mean they will eat it. Optiduo™ automated feed pusher does twice as much to improve your productivity. First the robot remixes feed making it more appealing to cows, and then repositions it avoiding compaction; which means higher consumption and more milk.

  • More frequent and higher feed intake
  • More milk
  • 24/7 feed availability

Increased work efficiency

Manually pushing feed is a time consuming task that will be a thing of the past. Because of this it is a job that sometime is skipped when things get busy. The OptiDuo™ robot is working 24/7, right on schedule.

  • Saves time
  • Reduces workload
  • Adaptive Drive handles different feed types and volumes automatically.

Improved animal welfare

OptiDuo™ automatically remixes feed and then repositions it evenly along the feed table. This leads to less sorting and a more even distribution of feed, which means less stress for low ranked animals.

  • Cows visit the feeding table more often
  • Better cow traffic
  • Less competition at the feeding table
