The CRYOVAC® brand Cheese Block Packaging System brings the efficiency and consistency of automation to North American dairy operations.

 

Sold together, this 3-piece equipment group is designed to handle CRYOVAC® gusseted cheese pouches, that come ready to be inserted into a stainless steel cassette.

The CL20 Cheese Block Loader receives 40# blocks from forming towers and inserts them into gusseted pouches. The RG20 Bag Re-gusset Equipment folds and prepares the bags for vacuum sealing. And the UBT Block Turner provides smooth rotation of bagged, block cheese by 90 or 180 degrees using a third of the space that standard conveyors require.

Automating the process of bagging 40# block cheese reduces labor risks associated with repetitive motion and high stress positions while moving heavy objects. Mechanical processes create consistent product positioning in each bag, which helps ensure consistent sealing and product protection for optimized yield.

  • Resource allocation improvement
  • Labor injury risk reduction by eliminating repetitive or high stress positions

Frequently Asked Questions

Automated bag loading is critical when handling large, heavy food products such as 40# block cheese. Lifting or pulling a bag manually over these heavy, somewhat unwieldy products during a typical production shift creates the risk for employee injury. In addition, using mechanical means to insert products into bags provides a cleaner and more consistent position of the product in the bag itself, which then makes it easier to automate the next step of the packaging process.
