The invention discloses a fully automatic intelligent rubber tapping robot, which comprises a moving platform and a rubber tapping robot arm. The rubber cutting mechanical arm is installed on the moving platform. tapping robot arm is installed on the moving platform. The tapping robot arm is specially designed for rubber cutting operation, the end of the tapping robot arm is equipped with an end actuator, which is composed of a tree-hugging fixed device and a sliding rubber tapping device. The invention can carry out the rubber cutting operation independently without manual intervention, which greatly reducing the manual input, and obviously improving the rubber cutting efficiency and time economy conversion efficiency. The movable system can work alone in a whole rubber forest with a large working area and reduces the average input cost per tree. The technical indexes of the rubber tree, such as cutting depth, cutting skin consumption and cutting smoothness, all meet the requirements of traditional rubber cutting technology and have good popularization and application value.

A method of inserting a tree tap into a tree, the tree tap including a blade in which a passageway is defined. The method includes abutting a distal end of the blade against an outer surface of the tree, followed by impacting the tree tap to drive the blade in to the tree. Afterwards, a cavity is drilled in the tree adjacent the blade distal end through the passageway. Also, a tree tap usable to perform the method.

A tree tap and a method of using same. Tree sap, such as birch or maple sap, is collected with the tree tap that has been inserted in the tree without forming a recess shaped to receive the tap prior to insertion. The tree tap includes a blade defining opposed blade side surfaces. The tree tap includes at least two sap collecting apertures each provided in a respective one of the blade side surfaces.
