Processes and Mixes Cheese Varieties Efficiently
The CS-10 from Uzermak is a versatile steam cooker and cheese stretcher designed for efficient batch processing in dairy and food industries. Its robust AISI304 stainless steel construction ensures durability, while the counter-rotating augers, capable of a maximum speed of 160 rpm, provide homogenous mixing and stretching. Ideal for producing mozzarella, cheddar, and various processed cheeses, it also excels in creating vegan and plant-based alternatives. With a batch capacity of 8-12 kg, the CS-10 employs both direct and indirect steam heating, offering precise control via its PLC system and touch screen interface. This machine integrates seamlessly into laboratory-scale operations, with safety sensors and automatic temperature control to enhance productivity and reduce downtime. Optional features, such as AISI316 stainless steel and a steam generator, add to its adaptability across different production environments.
