Salting mellowing conveyor for cheese curd
In cheese production, achieving the right salt content is crucial for flavor, texture, and preservation. Traditional methods can lead to inconsistent results, high salt waste, and excessive moisture retention. Producers face the challenge of uniformly salting cheese curd while minimizing salt usage and waste.
Ensure precise salt distribution and retention
The Tetra Pak® Salting Mellowing Conveyor 2 is a continuous salting system designed for granular or milled cheese curd. This conveyor, when used with the Tetra Pak® Salt-Dispenser 2, ensures accurate salt application, optimal salt retention, and reduced whey with high salt content. It features application-specific agitators that provide even salt distribution and effective stirring to remove excess whey. The system is adaptable with variable belt widths, lengths, and speeds to produce a wide variety of cheese recipes. Constructed with high-quality materials to withstand corrosive environments, it promises durability and reliability. The conveyor can be isolated during CIP to enable shorter cleaning times and maximize production efficiency. Suitable for all cheese types, it has a capacity of up to 16300 kg/hr (36000 lbs/hr).
