Abstract (en)
[origin: WO03000042A1] The invention relates to a method for milking an animal, in particular a cow, according to which a characteristic (KG) of the milking operation is first determined. Said characteristic (KG) is composed of at least one of the following variables: the actual value (IW) of the milk flow (MF), the temporal modification of said flow and/or the accumulated quantity of milk (MM). A threshold value (SK) for determining the end of a milking operation is determined in accordance with the characteristic(s) (KG). The end of the milking operation is predicted using the characteristic (KG) and the threshold value (SK). An evaluation variable (BG) of the milking operation is determined during said milking operation, whereby this/these evaluation variable(s) (BG) take(s) into account at least one of the following variables: the actual value (IW) of the milk flow (MF), the temporal modification of said flow and/or the accumulated quantity of milk (MM). The end of the milking operation is initiated, when the evaluation variable (BG) essentially corresponds to the threshold value (SK), or falls below the latter.
