The invention refers to an arrangement and a method for milking of
animals. The arrangement includes a number of milking stations (1). Each
milking station includes a set of teatcups to be attached to the animal
to be milked, a local milk-collecting unit, a local milk discharge
conduit (10) and a local feeding member. At least a first main milk
conduit (31) is arranged to connect each local milk discharge conduit
(10) to a central milk-receiving unit (30) for the transport of milk from
each milking station (1) to the central milk-receiving unit. Each local
feeding member is arranged to feed the milk by pressure from the local
milk-collecting unit to the central milk-connecting unit via the local
milk discharge conduit (10) and the first main milk conduit.
