Ultrasonic Fixed Weight Cutting of Cheese

In the field of cheese deep processing, cutting accuracy and quantitative accuracy directly determine product quality and production efficiency. In traditional processing, manual cutting often faces problems such as uneven cutting surfaces, sticking of soft cheese blades, and chipping of hard cheese edges, with a raw material loss rate of over 8%; Manual weighing is affected by operational experience, with errors often exceeding ± 5g and an hourly processing capacity of less than 300 units, making it difficult to adapt to large-scale production needs. The combination of ultrasonic automatic cheese cutting equipment and cheese fixed weight machine has accurately solved these industry pain points and built a standardized processing system.

Ultrasonic automatic cheese cutting equipment: precise adaptation to multi texture cheese

The device is based on ultrasonic high-frequency vibration technology, which converts electrical energy into high-frequency mechanical vibrations of 40kHz-60kHz through a built-in transducer, and transmits them to a food grade stainless steel blade through a variable amplitude rod. Unlike traditional mechanical cutting, high-frequency vibration creates a micrometer sized gap between the blade and the cheese contact surface, reducing cutting resistance by more than 70% and avoiding sticking at the root. It is particularly suitable for non-destructive cutting of soft cheeses such as Brie and Mascarpone, with smooth and brushed cut surfaces.

For different textures of cheese, the device can flexibly adjust parameters through the touch screen: for soft cheese, the vibration frequency can be adjusted to below 45kHz, and the cutting speed can be set to 10mm/s to reduce deformation; Hard cheeses such as Cheddar and Gundam increase their frequency to above 55kHz, combined with diamond coated cutting heads to enhance wear resistance, and the cutting error is controlled within ± 0.1mm. The equipment is equipped with an automatic feeding conveyor belt, which can adjust the guiding mechanism according to the size of the cheese pieces. The processing capacity can reach 1500 pieces per hour, which is 5 times more efficient than manual labor. The body is made of 304 stainless steel seamless welding, with an IP67 waterproof rating design. The blade and conveyor belt can be quickly disassembled and cleaned, fully meeting the safety standards for food contact utensils.

Cheese fixed weight machine: achieving precise quantification at the gram level

The fixed weight machine relies on high-precision weighing sensors (with an accuracy of 0.1g) and is linked with a PLC control system to form a fully automatic process of “grabbing weighing trimming discharging”. After the operator sets the target weight, the equipment grabs the cheese through a vacuum suction cup or flexible gripper, and the sensor provides real-time weight data. If it is overweight, the micro cutting head is activated to trim the excess part. If it is underweight, the material is automatically replenished, and the final product weight error is stable within ± 0.3g.

The equipment has strong adaptability: a single claw grasping mechanism is used for block cheese, and a multi station conveyor belt is equipped for strip cheese. The granular cheese can be precisely controlled by vibrating the feeding hopper. Its processing efficiency can reach 1200 parts per hour, and it supports the storage of 100 sets of formulas. When switching between products of different specifications, it only takes 30 seconds to retrieve parameters. The components that come into contact with food are made of food grade PTFE material, which can be disassembled without tools and quickly reset after cleaning, effectively avoiding cross contamination. It is worth mentioning that the equipment can be seamlessly linked with ultrasonic cutting equipment, and the cut cheese enters the weighing process directly through the conveyor belt, forming an integrated “cutting quantitative” production line.

The core value of collaborative applications

The combination of two devices has reduced the cheese processing loss rate from 8% to below 2% and reduced labor costs by 60%. For pre packaged food enterprises, the cut cheese chunks can be directly used as toppings for pizza and pasta, ensuring a uniform taste for each product; For the baking industry, precise quantification of cheese ingredients can enhance the stability of pastry flavor. After introducing this set of equipment, small and medium-sized processing enterprises can quickly adapt to diversified order requirements, and the weight statistics, loss analysis and other reports generated by the equipment provide data support for quality traceability.

From technological upgrading to efficiency improvement, ultrasonic automatic cutting and fixed weight equipment are driving the transformation of cheese processing from “experience operation” to “standardized production”, injecting new momentum into the high-quality development of the industry.

About Cheersonic

Cheersonic manufactures the leading portioning equipment for bakeries producing fresh and frozen desserts. Since 1998 bakers have used Cheersonic machines to cut, slice and portion cheesecake, pie, layer cake, loaves, butter, cheese, pizza, sandwichs, and more. Cheersonic offers ultrasonic cutting solutions that support start-up bakeries and high production commercial facilities alike. Small standalone machines can be used in manual baking facilities and large inline robotic solutions aid in high speed production.

Cheersonic offers many ultrasonic slicing models, both inline and offline applications, with production speeds of 80 to 1,500 cakes or pies per hour.

Cheersonic’ latest offline introductions include ultrasonic cutting with or without divider inserts between each slice. This improves the quality of the cut and makes for a much better product presentation for the customer. In addition, robotic arm improves the speed, efficiency, and accuracy of the cutting process, producing professional looking products every time.
