The machine automatically fills and caps four different sized tubs with
three different sized lids with minimal line set up time in between the
different products.
This machine was designed, manufactured, developed and commissioned by
Brook Engineering for a cheese making company, demonstrating a
successful contribution to the Food Industry.
Filling Station
The line accommodates three types of Bocconcini containers and one
Ricotta container. The container sizes vary significantly from smallest
at 220g to largest at 1kg. Tubs with Bocconcini are manually loaded with
the cheese already in the tubs, the machine fills the tubs with water,
then places a lid on the tub, presses the lid down and puts a use by
date on. Ricotta tubs are automatically loaded on the line and
automatically filled with cheese rather than water. The machine is PLC
controlled, uses pneumatic actuators, and is constructed to withstand
the harsh chemical washdown environment, low temperature and humid
conditions.
