Because of technical limitations, an impact of machine milking on the teat tissue cannot be
avoided. The continuance of this impact during and after milking depends on a variety of …

Simple Summary In dairy buffaloes, the efficiency of the milking process mostly depends on
the anatomical and physiological differences found in this species when compared to cattle …

The objectives of this study were to assess the effect of 2 different premilking stimulation
regimens, with and without a latency period between tactile stimulation and the attachment …

The primary objective of this observational study was to investigate whether incremental milk
flow rates (in the 0–15 s, 15–30 s, 30–60 s, and 60–120 s intervals) from electronic on-farm …

The objectives were to study the effect of 2 different premilking stimulation regimens, with
and without manual forestripping, on teat tissue condition and milking characteristics in dairy …

To maximise the return on capital invested in the milking parlour, the largest number of cows
should be milked gently and completely in the shortest possible time. Bimodal milk flow and …

The objectives were to examine the effect of an automated premilking stimulation (APS) by
means of a high pulsation frequency (300 cycles/min) without a reduction of the vacuum in …

To determine whether individual cow milking vacuum (within the short milk tube and the liner
mouthpiece) could be substituted for milk flow technology to identify delayed (bimodal) milk …

The purpose of milking machines is to harvest milk at an optimum speed while maintaining
cow comfort and preserving teat defence mechanisms against the invasion of mastitis …

Simple Summary Human–animal interactions in dairy species are frequent, as milking is
routinely performed twice per day. When buffalo cows are stressed, even by minor changes …
