The first ever mouthpiece-vented triangular liner and
shell combination is being launched to farmers at the Dairy Event
today.

European Impulse uses air introduced above the teat end, which is a
more effective way of moving milk away from the teat, says
Milk-Rite's Pat Grace. "In addition to improving milk flow from the
udder, the vent positioning also reduces milk turbulence in the
liner and black flow from the claw."
Back flow of milk is not desirable, since it allows milk and
bacteria from one teat to come into contact with other teats on the
same cow or other cows. Back-flow increase risk of cross-infection
and creates turbulence.
The full technical presentation will be available for viewing on
the stand in Exhibition Hall 2, Stand No 226.
