Odenberg Blockmaster: A unique wraparound cheese packer specifically designed for the 40lb(20kg), cheese blockThe Odenberg Blockmaster Packer has been specially developed to overcome the shape and finish problems associated with cheese block production. The consequent benefits to the customer are reduced off-cuts, improved appearance and shape. Good design and quality construction, combined with research into customer requirements ensures that these benefits are consistently achieved. In particular, the special use of a high compression technique and a unique method of case forming means that the cheese case is kept under tension during the entire wrapping operation. This tension is subsequently maintained long enough to ensure that no malformation of the blocks occurs during storage. The system consists of a product infeed conveyor, a case blank magazine, an optional liner magazine and a series of interlocking stations in which the successive stages of the packing operation take place. Using a unique high compression technique, the blocks are squared during the various stages of the wrapping operation and curd flow to the corners is encouraged. This process eliminates a dished surface on the block, resulting in minimum trim loss. The Blockmaster is a fully self contained, automatic machine with its own independent control and on-board PLC controller. FeaturesThe Blockmaster has been constructed to incorporate a number of features which ensure that it is flexible, reliable, cost effective and easy to operate and maintain. Some of these features include:
