Animal keeper and deputy director of dairy farming at the Meiereihof research station, University of Hohenheim

To compare a milking parlor with the film “The Matrix” − such an association is somewhat strange from our point of view. 

In contrast to the movie, the cows are only “connected” to the hoses twice a day for five to ten minutes. The stellar milking technology from Siliconform shown here is based particularly strongly on the calf's sucking behavior and is very gentle on the udder due to its low vacuum, among other things. 

It is also used at our Meiereihof research station at the University of Hohenheim.
