Milk liners (inflations) designed for optimal milking performance, teat comfort, and durability in rotary and parallel parlor systems.

GEA's DairyMilk liner family includes inflations designed for various milking system configurations and cow types. The M6850 series features optimized barrel shape and mouthpiece design for efficient milk flow and teat comfort.
