Uht system for processed cheese

Ensure the extended shelf life and freshness of various cheese products with precise ultra-high-temperature processing, eliminating harmful microorganisms while maintaining quality under non-refrigerated conditions.

Sterilizes and Extends Shelf Life of Cheese

The UHT System from Uzermak is an advanced solution engineered to enhance shelf life and safety in cheese production. Specially designed for processed, cream, spreadable, and triangle cheese varieties, this system uses ultra-high-temperature treatment to sterilize and maintain cheese quality. With a processing capacity ranging from 300 to 4000 liters per batch, it heats cheese at 138-142°C and rapidly cools it to 85-90°C, ensuring microbial destruction and product longevity for up to six months without refrigeration. The system integrates seamlessly into production lines with automation features such as a Siemens PLC system for precise control over temperature and pressure. Constructed from AISI304-316 stainless steel, it is durable and food-safe. Key components like the holding section with Teflon inliner and flash cooling tank with tubular condenser optimize the process, while automatic valves manage product and steam routing. It’s a reliable choice for dairy producers seeking efficiency and high-speed operations in liquid and slurry cheese processing.
