The M\u00b2erlin milking robot&#8217;s compact separation options can separate the cows towards the pasture, the straw pen or towards a hoof trimming box, for example.<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe title=\"M2erlin melkrobot | Dubbele Ingang \/ Dubbele uitgang | Twin Entry \/ Twin Exit - Fullwood\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/IeygUltLsHU?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n<a class=\"image-text left ervaringsverhaal\" href=\"https:\/\/www.fullwood.com\/en\/robotic-milking-how-to-optimise-cow-traffic\/\">\n\t<div class=\"image\" style=\"background-image: url('https:\/\/fullwood.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/m2erlin-koe.jpg'); height: 100%;\">\n\t<\/div>\n\t<div class=\"bg-radblue\">\n\t\t<div class=\"wysiwyg\">\n\t\t\t<h2 class=\"\"><span>Background story<\/span>Outdoor grazing: get calves used to it early on<\/h2>\n\t\t\t<p class=\"intro\">Dealers Doede Hofman and Willem van der Weerd talk about cow traffic and the different robot setups of Fullwood.<\/p>\n\t\t\t<span class=\"button chevron white\">Read the story<\/span>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/a>\n\n<div class=\"mw\">\n\t<div class=\"find-dealer grid3\">\n\t\t\t\t<h2>Dealers<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3>Find a dealer<\/h3>\n<p>Always a dealer nearby!
