Welcome to the University of Wisconsin Milking Research and Instruction Laboratory Web Site

The University of Wisconsin Milking Research and Instruction Laboratory (UWMRIL) was founded in 1990.  Since then it has become an internationally recognized center for research and education on machine milking.  The lab's faculty and staff have been active participants in the development of US and International standards for milking machines, machine milking activities of the International Dairy Federation, and regulatory review of automatic milking systems in the US.

This website is designed to provide you with the latest information from the UWMRIL.  Publications on various subjects can be downloaded by clicking on the side bar links or the links below.
