Abstract

A milk meter for measuring the volume of milk provided by a milking machine for milking animals, wherein the milk meter comprises at least one tubular measuring section through which, in operation, milk to be measured flows, and wherein the tubular measuring section is provided, in the flow direction of the milk, with at least two spaced apart measuring electrode assemblies for use of an EGT (Electrical Capacitance Tomography)-technique, and with signal processing means which are designed for determining data with respect to the volume of the milk flowing through the at least one measuring section from measuring signals provided by the measuring electrode assemblies.
