Cow Milking Teat Cup

The Cow Milking Teat Cup is a key interface component of a mechanical dairy milking system. It supports the liner or inflation around the cow's teat while creating the pulsation chamber required for controlled vacuum operation.

The teat cup shell is designed to work together with a compatible liner, short milk tube and pulsation connection. During milking, vacuum inside the liner draws milk toward the milk collection system, while pulsating vacuum in the space between the shell and liner controls the liner's opening and closing movement. :contentReference[oaicite:1]{index=1}

Available configurations can be matched to different milking parlours, liner designs and cluster systems. Material, dimensions, connection arrangement and finish can be supplied according to project requirements.

• Rigid outer shell designed to support a replaceable milking liner.
• Stainless-steel configurations provide a smooth, durable and easy-to-clean exterior.
• Compatible designs can be matched with round or specialized liner systems.
• Side pulsation connection supports vacuum communication to the pulsation chamber.
• Stable shell geometry helps maintain consistent liner positioning during milking.
• Suitable for conventional milking parlours and selected automated milking applications.
• Compact construction facilitates handling, cleaning and routine replacement.
• Available in different shell, liner and connection configurations according to milking system requirements.
• Suitable for dairy farms, milking equipment distributors and agricultural project procurement.

• Outer Teat Cup Shell: Rigid cylindrical housing that supports the liner and protects the assembly.
• Teat Cup Liner / Inflation: Flexible inner component that directly contacts the cow's teat.
• Pulsation Port: Side connection used to apply pulsating vacuum to the chamber between the shell and liner.
• Lower Outlet Area: Provides passage for the liner and connection to the milk hose or short milk tube.
• Alignment Features: Selected shell and liner systems may incorporate keys, grooves or positioning features to help prevent liner twisting. :contentReference[oaicite:2]{index=2}

The exact component arrangement varies by model and milking system. Compatible liners and connection sizes should be confirmed before ordering.

The teat cup consists essentially of a rigid shell surrounding a flexible liner. The liner creates the milk passage around the teat, while the space between the liner and shell forms the pulsation chamber. :contentReference[oaicite:3]{index=3}

During the milking phase, vacuum inside the liner supports milk extraction. During the rest phase, atmospheric pressure and pulsating vacuum cause the liner to collapse around the teat, providing the massage action required by the milking cycle. :contentReference[oaicite:4]{index=4}

Correct liner selection, shell compatibility, cluster alignment, vacuum level and pulsation settings are important for stable milking performance and teat condition. :contentReference[oaicite:5]{index=5}

The Cow Milking Teat Cup is suitable for commercial dairy operations and milking equipment supply programs.

• Herringbone milking parlours
• Parallel and side-by-side milking systems
• Swingover milking systems
• Rotary milking parlours
• Pipeline milking systems
• Selected automatic milking systems with compatible teat cup assemblies
• Dairy farm equipment replacement and maintenance programs
• Milking equipment distributors, dealers and agricultural project contractors

• Shell diameter and overall dimensions: Customizable
• Shell material and finish: According to project requirements
• Pulsation port position and connection: Available according to system design
• Liner compatibility: Selected according to teat size, liner type and milking system
• Connection size: According to project requirements
• Logo and product marking: Available upon request
• Packaging configuration: Customizable
• OEM / private-label supply: Available upon request

For replacement projects, customers should provide the existing shell model, liner reference or dimensional drawing to ensure correct compatibility.

Installation: Insert the compatible liner into the shell according to the liner manufacturer's installation procedure. Ensure the liner is correctly seated, aligned and not twisted. Connect the pulsation tube and milk tubing to the designated ports, then verify the cluster position before milking. Proper cluster alignment helps avoid unnecessary teat pulling and uneven vacuum application. :contentReference[oaicite:6]{index=6}

Cleaning: Clean and sanitize the teat cup and liner after each milking cycle according to the dairy's cleaning protocol. Pay particular attention to the liner, milk passage and connection points.

Maintenance: Inspect liners regularly for wear, cracks, deformation or loss of elasticity. Replace worn liners according to the manufacturer's recommended service interval. Incorrectly fitted or worn liners can affect vacuum stability, milking performance and teat condition. :contentReference[oaicite:7]{index=7}

The teat cup can be supplied as a replacement component for existing dairy milking installations or as part of a new milking cluster configuration.

For dairy equipment distributors, engineering contractors and commercial farm projects, shell dimensions, liner compatibility and connection specifications can be coordinated before production. This supports replacement programs and standardized spare-parts procurement across multiple dairy units.
