Teat liners are the link between your cows and the robot. Choosing the right type of teat liner helps ensure all milk is quickly and carefully removed from the udder. The teat liner is designed to provide two things: removal of milk and reduction in congestion that can occur in the removal process.

Robot customer Mike Haines’ point of view is one many robotic dairy producers share: “I didn’t put these things in because I have money. I put them in to have a life,” Mike says. Mike and his wife, Heather, co-own and operate Haines Dairy – a 175-cow operation – with their young family in Sigourney, Iowa. They transitioned to robotic milking in 2013, eager to take advantage of the flexibility robotic milking boasted to spend more time with their family.
