You will develop a proof of principle and investigate whether the concept is technically feasible in a real farm environment. The challenge is not only to design a solution, but also to build, test, and validate it yourself. This internship is based on a concept proposal developed within Lely's feeding domain and focuses on creating an initial prototype to assess technical viability.
Working closely with experienced engineers, you will experience what it is like to innovate at Lely. From the first sketches and calculations to farm testing and evaluation, you will play an active role in every step of the development process.
Your responsibilities include:
The most exciting part? You will be one of the first people to discover whether this concept can become a valuable innovation for dairy farmers around the world!
