State of the art equipment picks up every piece of cheese, shaking off excess mould and rotate them. The rotation of the cheese is an important part of the maturation process.

Still this work was carried out by the staff on the farm in Somerset. The new machine, nicknamed "Tina Turner" that can turn 100 laps of cheese every hour. Now each of them will be flipped once a week, instead of once for a couple of months. Not only that, the robot will help to save staff time and free them from the hard work, it will also help to improve the taste of the cheese.

The robot was purchased by father and son Tom and Richard CULVER that are tired of manual labour. The car was specially manufactured in Switzerland. Tom CULVER said that production of Cheddar cheese has been here 100 years and he wants to dairy farm continued to engage in the manufacture of this cheese another 100 years, but a new way of working in the ripening process of cheese ensures it.

He added: "I won't say how much is worth robot. The price is comparable to the cost of the tractor".
