Cows can be milked by hand or by machine.
Hand milking is performed by massaging and pulling down on the teats of the cow's udder, squirting the milk into a bucket.
A milking machine is designed to extract milk using a vacuum. The teat cups of the machine are attached to the cow's teats, then the cups alternate between vacuum and normal air pressure to extract the milk without damaging the teats of the cow. Often this is done coercively.
