Portions and Cuts Cheeses Precisely

The PHI 350 from Groba B.V. is a versatile cheese portioning machine designed to meet the specific needs of dairy producers, cheese manufacturers, and food processing companies. What distinguishes the PHI 350 is its customizable portioning set, which includes a cutting frame and a die section tailored to customer specifications, allowing for precise portioning of a variety of cheeses, from traditional forms like round, square, and rectangular to specialized cuts such as feta cubes and Swedish portions.

Ideal for food and dairy industries, it supports processing operations in both manual and customer-specific modes, ensuring compatibility with existing production lines. The PHI 350 integrates seamlessly into cheese processing workflows and accommodates up to 50 cheese portions in one operation.

Enhancing user convenience, the machine allows for easy exchange of portioning sets, and offers additional options like cutting frame heating, a light curtain for safety, and a manual centering unit.
