Core Product Overview
Milk Liner (Milking Cup Liner) is a core component of milking equipment, installed in the milking cluster and in direct contact with cows' teats. As a key silicone/rubber consumable for milking, it realizes vacuum pulsation to simulate manual milking, ensuring efficient milk collection and cow udder health. It isolates milk from the external environment to guarantee raw milk hygiene, serving as a core consumable for ranch milking systems.
Core Functions and Roles
Milking Drive: Relies on the milking machine's vacuum pulsation to realize periodic relaxation and contraction, simulating manual milking rhythm for efficient milk extraction, avoiding teat damage from prolonged pressure.
Hygienic Protection: Isolates milk from the milking cluster, preventing bacterial contamination and avoiding direct contact between teats and metal cup bodies to reduce mechanical stimulation and infection risks.
Udder Health Protection: Adapts to different teat sizes to reduce negative pressure damage, teat congestion and mastitis, ensuring cow lactation health.
Adaptability Matching: Matches different milk cup specifications and milking equipment, suitable for cows of different breeds and sizes.
