Cheese brine immersion salting system
Ensure consistent flavor and quality in cheese production by immersing blocks and wheels in precisely controlled brine solutions for optimal salting results.

Immerses and Brines Cheese in Controlled Environments
The Immersion Brine Salting System from Progema Engineering is designed for cheese manufacturers seeking precision in their salting processes. This system features pneumatic sanitary valves and PLC control with a touch-screen interface, enabling seamless operation and monitoring. It utilizes a multi-stage brine recirculation and cooling process, ensuring consistent salinity and temperature across cheese forms. Commonly applied in dairy production, it excels in processing cheese wheels, curds, and immersed cheese blocks. The system offers automation, with optional salinity and weight monitoring, and integrates efficiently into existing production lines. Constructed with Aisi 316L stainless steel, it ensures longevity and corrosion resistance in saline environments. Customizable setups include handling up to 40 cheese blocks across five stacked tiers, with scalable options and engineering support to meet specific spatial and functional demands.
