At Agathangelou, we specialise in providing advanced solutions for the dairy industry. Our expertise in cheese pressing for semi-hard and soft cheese ensures optimal texture and quality for your products. With decades of experience and innovative engineering, we help dairy producers optimise their processes and achieve consistent results.
Our pressing systems are engineered to ensure an efficient and automated process for semi-hard cheese such as Halloumi/Grilled Cheese and soft cheese such as Paneer. Once the curd is filled into the moulds, an automated lid placement system secures the moulds, which are then transported into the press using pneumatic pushers. The pressing phase ensures uniform curd compression, resulting in consistent cheese texture. After pressing, the moulds are flipped, the cheese is demoulded, and the moulds undergo a high-pressure cleaning process. The curd blocks are then manually positioned into cooling trays, followed by semi-automatic phases for folding, cutting, and stacking in preparation for the cooking and cooling stages. This streamlined system minimizes manual handling, enhances efficiency, and maintains product quality.
- Consistent Quality and Texture: Ensures uniformity in each batch, improving product reliability.
- Extended Shelf-Life and Preservation: Reduces moisture content, which helps in extending the shelf-life of the cheese.
