About This Item
TS ISO 3918 is a vocabulary standard for milking machine installations. It defines the terms used for the equipment, arrangements and concepts involved in milking cows, water buffaloes, sheep, goats and other mammals used for milk production, so that the technical language is consistent across the field.
Why terminology matters in milking systems
Milking machines are integrated systems in which vacuum, pulsation, milk transfer and hygiene-related components work together. In this subject area, precise terminology helps reduce misunderstandings in research, official regulation, design, manufacture, installation and use. Because this is a vocabulary standard, it addresses the meaning of terms rather than specifying machine performance requirements or a particular test method.
Technical scope reflected by the standard
- Milking machines for cows, water buffaloes, sheep, goats and other milk-producing mammals
- Terminology for installations and their principal component names
- A shared language for design, production, installation and operational contexts
Vocabulary standards are especially valuable in sectors where equipment, animal species and operating practices vary. They help specialists interpret the same system in the same way, which supports clearer communication in dairy technology, hygiene, animal care and equipment engineering.
