milking machines
Automated udder pumps
Milking machines are mechanical devices that extract milk from cows, goats, or other dairy animals by applying suction to the teats.
They replaced hand milking on commercial dairy farms, dramatically increasing efficiency: The milking machines run twice a day.
The term occasionally appears in sexual slang for devices or acts involving rhythmic suction.
