Automatic drainage-finishing table

The automatic drainage-finishing table is used to pre-press the curd and drain the whey and cut blocks that fit into a particular size of cheese mold.

The machine is PLC controlled and has a color touch-screen from where the parameters can be entered for different sizes and styles of cheese.

An overhead device moves over the curd bed and presses the curd in steps. The pressing time and pressure and number of pressing cycles can be pre-programmed and entered on the touch-screen. The curd is automaticaly cut into blocks and transported to the end-table, from where they can easily moved into the cheese molds. The cleaning can also be automated (CIP)
