FEPAK 1500 T U clean

Linija FEPAK 1500 T UP clean is an automatic line with a capacity of 1500 packages per hour, with a volume of up to one liter of FETA cheese, composed of three units:
Dozopak – taking of containers, UV disinfection, injection of antistatic agents, dosing of concentrate with rennet through a static mixer, dosing of antifoam, taking out of containers to the tunnel.
Coagulation tunnel – the endless conveyor transports the containers in up to 30 minutes, provides overpressure (HEPA), maintains the required temperature (optional), brings the containers to Monopak.
Monopak – lowering the containers into the nests, cutting, membrane placement and salting (optional), UV disinfection of lids, puting of AL lids with pre welding, welding of AL lids, installation of snap lids, compaction of snap lids, ink jet dating and removal of containers on the turntable.

The inlet conveyor is a step conveyor that carries the containers on the belt with pushers (thorns) through the dosing module and ends at the end of the inlet to the coagulation chamber. Loading containers on the inlet conveyor is a pneumatically guided separator that accepts the container from the cartridge and places it on the inlet conveyor belt. The UV lamp is located in a semi-enclosed chamber above the conveyor belt, and acts with UV rays on the containers moving below it.

The antistatic application station applies a thin layer of anti-adhesive to the inside of the container using atomizing nozzles. The anti-stick agent is supplied under pressure from the container volume of 10 liters.

The station for dosing the mixture into containers consists of separate containers for retentate – 40 liters. and rennet – 15 lt., which are brought in separate ways in a static mixer, and from there in two heads for filling two containers at the same time. The filling heads are equipped against dripping after filling the containers.

The anti-foaming station adds anti-foam liquid with the help of atomizing nozzles. The anti-foam agent is supplied under pressure from a 10-liter container.

HEPA filters are located on the armor that covers the volume in which there are nozzles for applying antistatics, filling heads, nozzles for applying antifoam and part of the inlet conveyor to the entrance to the chamber.

The belt is washed with water, automatically, via nozzles.

The switch of filled containers at the entrance to the chamber, transfers the filled containers from the inlet conveyor to the conveyor through the chamber, using a pneumatic drive. It is attached to the lattice construction of the chamber. The chamber is a lattice construction shielded to provide the possibility of creating over pressure of clean air created by HEPA filters. The lattice construction is designed to enable the installation of conveyors, Hepa filters, switch assemblies at the inlet and outlet of the chamber and other equipment. A continuous conveyor with an infinite belt transports the containers through the chamber from the inlet to the outlet, for the time required to coagulate the mixture in the containers. The pusher of the filled containers from the chamber transfers the filled containers from the conveyor belt through the chamber to the outlet conveyor which carries the containers to the closing module. The switch drive is pneumatic. It is attached to the lattice construction of the chamber. Step conveyor transports the containers to the transfer station to the conveyor of the closing module. Three HEPA filters are arranged above the conveyor belt, on the chamber construction so as to provide an over pressure of clean air throughout the chamber volume. Chamber heaters (optional) are located inside the chamber and maintain the temperature required for coagulation of the mixture in the containers.

The belt is washed with water, automatically, via nozzles.

The station for transferring containers to the conveyor of the closing module is a pneumatically guided gripper receiving the containers from the outlet conveyor and places the closing module on the conveyor belt.

The closing module conveyor is a step conveyor with openings for containers in the conveyor belt conveying the containers through the closing module.

The cheese cutting station is made with chrome and highly polished knives with which no cleaning is required during the process and the movement of the knife is driven pneumatically.

The parchment paper application station is a rotating head that uses a vacuum effect to take food parchment paper from the container and place it on a vessel (optional).

The salting station is a device that dispenses the prescribed amount of salt on parchment paper and the spillage of salt outside the container is prevented by a constructive solution (optional).

The station for applying and welding aluminum lids is a rotating head that uses a vacuum effect to take the AL lid from the vessel and place it on the container, and then partial welding is performed for the container.

The Al lid welding station performs the final welding of the AL lid for the container.

The station for applying the snap-on lids of the container is a rotating head which uses a vacuum effect to take the snap-on lid from the container and place it on the container.

The station for pressing the snap-on lids of the vessel is a pneumatically guided press and presses the lid on the container.

The ink jet printer dates from the side of the container.

Lifting of containers and disposal on the conveyor of the finished product is performed by synchronized operation of the lifter of the container and ejector and is deposited on the receiving turntable or conveyor of the finished product.

HEPA filters cover the complete line from taking the containers to closing them.
