Madero Equipos de Ordeño

What Madero Equipos de Ordeño does

Madero Equipos de Ordeño, operating commercially as Madero Dairy Systems, is a privately held dairy equipment manufacturer founded in 1989 with operational roots in Torreón, Mexico, and a North American corporate headquarters at 12236 Cutten Road, Houston, Texas. The company designs and supplies integrated milking systems, automation and robotics, precision herd management tools, milk cooling and storage, vacuum systems, cow comfort products, consumables, and udder hygiene chemicals to commercial dairy producers globally.

Its flagship technical differentiator is MagLev Technology, a proprietary magnetic levitation system that eliminates friction in rotary milking platforms, enabling smoother rotation, reduced maintenance, and improved cow comfort. The automation portfolio extends this platform with MAX DUAL and MAX LITE milking robotics, ROTARY WASH PRO for automated cleaning, and SMARTGATE for intelligent cow-flow management, complemented by SORT/WEIGHGATES for precision herd weighing and sorting. Around the equipment core, Madero operates a Dairy Farm Intelligence Unit (DFIU) that delivers consulting based on measurable indicators aimed at production efficiency, herd health, and farm growth.

Revenue is generated through three streams: capital equipment sales (rotary parlors, automation, vacuum, and cooling systems), recurring consumables and udder hygiene chemicals, and professional services spanning farm design, planning, and construction, specialized technical services, and advisory consulting. The company runs a sales-led go-to-market with direct enterprise sales targeting large dairy operations, supported by multi-year contracts, a 'Build your Rotary' online configurator, and global design-build delivery capabilities.
