High‑precision portioning to protect yield and ensure exact block weight
The Pasta Filata Cheese Portioner 07/01049‑10 is a high‑precision dosing and cutting system designed to deliver exact and repeatable cheese portions, protecting profit margins by eliminating weight variability and product giveaway.
The unit is engineered to process formats ranging from 0.55 lb to 6.6 lb (250 g to 3 kg), making it suitable for both retail and institutional cheese applications. Designed to receive direct discharge from a stretcher or cooker, the portioner acts as a critical interface between processing and packaging.
The cheese mass enters a receiving hopper with a double steam jacket, ensuring constant temperature and plasticity throughout the portioning process. Two counter‑rotating helical augers transport the product toward the outlet nozzle under smooth, laminar flow conditions, preventing mechanical damage and air incorporation.
At the outlet, a stainless steel guillotine blade, synchronized with the extrusion flow and governed by an adjustable control system, performs clean and precise cuts, delivering portions ready for direct placement into molds or packaging systems.
Production versatility
Interchangeable outlet tubes and adjustable operating parameters allow seamless production of small cylindrical units for retail markets or larger blocks for foodservice and industrial applications—all with a single machine.
Active thermal management
The integrated steam jacket maintains stable mass temperature, preventing premature cooling that can lead to granular textures and ensuring a glossy, elastic final product.
High‑precision cutting
The synchronized cutting system guarantees total weight standardization, minimizing over‑portioning and directly protecting product yield and profitability.
Double‑auger transport
The helical auger design provides constant, air‑free feeding, resulting in compact, defect‑free cheese blocks with consistent internal structure.
Designed to receive direct discharge from the stretcher, the Portioner acts as the critical link between processing and packaging. The mass enters a reception hopper with double steam jacket to maintain temperature and plasticity. Two helical screws transport the cheese to the outlet nozzle with gentle laminar flow, avoiding mechanical damage. A stainless steel cutter controlled by an adjustable control system performs clean, precise cuts, delivering portions ready to be deposited in their respective molds.
Technical Features
Production Versatility: Interchangeable tubes and adjustable parameters to produce from small 250g cylindrical cheeses (retail) to large 13kg institutional blocks in the automatic version.
Active Thermal Management: Steam jacket in the reception chamber maintains constant mass temperature, preventing grainy textures and ensuring a bright, elastic final product.
High-Precision Cutting System: Guillotine cutter synchronized with extrusion flow for total weight standardization, protecting profit margins by eliminating unaccounted product.
Double Screw Transport: Helical design ensures constant push and continuous air-free feeding, producing solid, compact blocks with no internal defects.
Protect your profit margin by ensuring each block has the exact weight. Eliminate losses from excess product and maintain stable mass temperature to guarantee perfect texture at packaging.
