Product Type:
Cheese making
Gentle loading of cheeses on the rack.
Pressed cheeses are conveyed on a belt conveyor from the mould emptier to rack filler where they are loaded on the roller conveyor in the rack loading vat. After the roller conveyor is lowered below water level, the rack elevator pulls an empty rack from the rack storage system, and places it with the lowest shelf in the loading position on a level with the roller conveyor. One shelf is loaded at a time by means of a pneumatically controlled pushing device, after which the rack elevator steps the rack to the next position. When the rack is loaded and all cheeses under liquid, the rack is pulled out of the elevator to the position for crane collection to the brining vat.
