Vertical Shredded or Cubed Cheese Packer (MAP)

This unit operates on a continuous vertical flow principle optimized for pressure-sensitive products. The cheese is conveyed through a Teflon-lined stainless steel forming tube that minimizes friction and prevents obstructions. During the packaging cycle, the system injects a controlled gas mixture (N2/CO2) displacing residual oxygen before the final seal. Dosing is managed through a two-stage gate system (coarse flow and fine flow), allowing the exact target weight to be reached without compacting high-moisture or analog cheeses, ensuring the product reaches the end customer loose and fresh.

• •Double-Gate Dosing System: Controls product flow to the scale by restricting passage in the final phase. This allows high weight precision (reducing giveaway) without applying mechanical pressure that would clump the cheese.
• •Modified Atmosphere Packaging (MAP) Technology: Replaces the air inside the package with inert gases to inhibit microbial growth and oxidation. This significantly extends the commercial shelf life of the product in the supermarket and allows expansion of its distribution radius.
• •Teflon-Lined Forming Tube: Reduces the friction coefficient during product fall. Prevents high-fat or high-moisture cheeses from sticking to the walls, reducing downtime for cleaning and guaranteeing constant flow.
• •PLC Interface with Touchscreen and Remote Support: Allows the operator to adjust recipes, sealing temperatures and speeds intuitively. Remote connectivity enables rapid diagnostics by engineering, reducing on-site corrective maintenance costs.
• •Stainless Steel Construction (AISI 304/316L): Meets the most stringent international sanitary standards. Facilitates cleaning and sanitization processes, offering high resistance to corrosion from cleaning chemicals or dairy brine salinity.
• •Vulcanized Belt Film Drive: Ensures automatic centering and constant traction of the packaging material, avoiding film waste from misalignment and guaranteeing high-quality hermetic seals.
