Cheese depositing on buns
Industrial production of cheese buns is hard to do. It is a costly part of many production lines. Many producers have been looking for alternatives to the traditional cheese waterfall systems. FoodJet's cheese depositors offer a solution for significant cost savings.
What goes wrong with traditional machines?
Many production lines presently use a water spraying system before a cheese waterfall. The idea is to make the shredded cheese stick better to the product because of the water. Nevertheless, you see a lot of things that go wrong:
- Cheese does not stick to the water adhesive and falls off
- In many cases, more than 50% of the cheese is returned by a carousel system
- Material falls off in the freezing tunnel, causing major cleaning issues
- Products do not look nice in the packaging as most of the cheese has already fallen off before
Cheese depositor alternative
FoodJet offers a liquid cheese alternative that has proven to be a major leap forward in many aspects. You replace your water spraying system with a system that applies liquid cheese. This cheese will function as an adhesive for the following waterfall system. This investment creates a fantastic ROI:
- All cheese that falls on your products will remain there. So you can significantly reduce the number of cheese flakes.
- Cleaning costs downstream are simplified tremendously.
- Client appreciation of the final product has increased
