CHEESE PROCESSING MACHINE Mod. VR/2

Applications and operation:

The Cheese Processing Machine Mod. VR/2 is designed to produce spreads or “pasta filata” cheeses. Thanks to the shape of the mixing blade and to loop–breaking stems, product is stretched without compression in order to preserve its elasticity. This machine doubles the production of the VR model. In fact each vat is provided with its own top and it can begin to work immediately after the feeding. In this way the processing time is reduced in comparison with other kind of cheese processing machines with a single top where you have to wait the end of the process in a vat before using the other one.

Construction features:

• Compact structure entirely made of AISI 304 stainless steel.
• No.2 double jacketed processing vat. Hermetic closing on gasket.
• Mixing blades have a suitable shape to help product stretching.
• Mixing blades rotation by two speeds gear motor.
• Mechanical seal on each mixing blade shaft.
• No.2 steam injectors in each top.
• No.1 stem in each top housing a PT100 probe. It is wired to a digital thermostat that regulate steam injection into the product.
• Hydraulic unit housed inside the structure. It powers hydraulic cylinders that lift and close tops and tilt vats.
• Timer to set cycle working time.
• Electrical switchboard with control panel housed inside the structure.
• Safety devices in compliance with CE Directive.

Attachments:

• Process water automatic loading unit provided with Batch controller and litre-counter.
• Vacuum equipment.
• Adjustable mixing blade rotating speed from 0 to 100 r/min by inverter.
• Temperature recorder. It shows on a colour graphic display melting temperature trends which are recorded and coded progressively with production date.
• PLC and touch screen display to control automatically the working cycle.
• Trolleys for processed product.
