Fixed-weight portion cutter for cheese bars

For cheese manufacturers requiring precision, this equipment ensures consistent fixed-weight portions, enhancing product uniformity and maximizing yield efficiency.

Precisely Cuts and Portions Various Cheeses

The CUT 32 from ALPMA Alpenland Maschinenbau GmbH is a precision-engineered cheese portioning machine designed for dairy producers and food processing companies. What sets the CUT 32 apart is its ability to deliver highly accurate fixed-weight portions of various cheeses, from soft to hard types, using high-speed automated cutting and weighing technology.

The machine operates by first weighing and measuring each cheese block, then precisely cutting it into wedges, slabs, or cubes, catering to end-products like Swiss cheese wedges, Gouda slabs, and paneer cubes. With a processing capacity of up to 150 strokes per minute, the CUT 32 integrates seamlessly into existing production lines, automatically transporting portions to downstream packaging machines.

Equipped with optional density scanning for Swiss-type cheeses, it optimizes yield and quality. This machine is a high-speed solution tailored to the demanding environments of dairy and food production, ensuring maximum throughput and consistent product quality.
