Cheese Draining Tables Upgrade Production Processes in Dairy Cheese Processing Plants
In dairy cheese processing, draining is a critical pre-processing step that determines the cheese's moisture content, taste, and shape. If draining is delayed, bacteria can easily grow in the curds; uneven draining results in a loose texture and unbalanced flavor. If the draining table is stationary, the curds must be repeatedly moved manually, which is labor-intensive and can lead to raw material loss. Traditional fixed draining tables are difficult to move, drain poorly, and clean, making them difficult to adapt to the flexible production schedules of cheese processing plants. The Cheese Draining Table, with its core combination of "flexible mobility + efficient draining," completely addresses these pain points, creating a smoother and more efficient production chain for cheese processing plants!

I. Unlocking a New Way to Efficient Draining
The core advantage of the Cheese Draining Table lies in its in-depth integration of a precise draining structure and a flexible, mobile design. Its operating principles are centered around three key principles: uniform drainage, convenient transport, and safety and hygiene.
The table features a multi-layered filter system made of food-grade 304 stainless steel. The upper layer features a 1-2mm precision filter that precisely intercepts curds and prevents the loss of fine curds. The lower layer is a diversion filter that guides drained water quickly toward the drain. The inclined filter design utilizes gravity to accelerate water drainage, increasing draining speed by 40% compared to traditional horizontal filters. It also prevents water from accumulating on the table and minimizing the risk of bacterial growth.
Efficient Drainage: A raised water barrier is located along the edge of the table to prevent water from spilling and contaminating the floor during the draining process. A concealed drain hole in the center of the table, equipped with a removable silicone drain hose, connects directly to the workshop drainage system and can also be flexibly connected to a collection bucket for drained liquid recovery, achieving zero waste of raw materials.
Flexible Mobility: The table's base is equipped with four heavy-duty, silent universal wheels with brake locks, allowing for 360° maneuverability when pushed, making it easy to move between the curd processing area, pressing area, and holding area, eliminating the need for manual curd handling. Once positioned, simply apply the brakes to instantly lock the table, providing the same stability as a fixed draining table and ensuring a safe and orderly draining process.
II. Five Core Advantages Adapting to the Diverse Needs of Cheese Processing Plants
1. Flexible Mobility, Significant Labor Cost Savings
Traditional fixed draining tables require two to three people to transport curd from the processing area to the draining table and then from the draining table to the pressing area, each move taking 15-20 minutes. The Cheese Draining Table, on the other hand, can be rolled directly to the curd processing area. Workers simply pour the curd onto the table and push it to the desired area, a single-person operation. For example, a medium-sized processing plant that processes 500 kg of curd per day can eliminate one handling worker per day, saving 60,000 to 80,000 yuan in labor costs annually. This also prevents the 5%-8% loss of raw materials caused by curd spillage during handling.
2. Efficient Draining, Improving Production Speed
Leveraging multiple layers of inclined filters and a highly efficient drainage structure, the Cheese Draining Table significantly improves draining efficiency: soft cheese curds can be drained in 30 minutes, and semi-hard cheese curds can be drained in under an hour. The moisture content of the drained curds is kept within ±2%, paving the way for a stable pressing process. For a processing plant producing 200 kg of cheese per day, this can reduce draining time by 2-3 hours, helping companies increase their daily production batches and more easily cope with peak orders.
3. Easy Cleaning, Reduced Hygiene Management Costs
The equipment features a "detachable and waterproof" design, significantly improving cleaning efficiency. The filter can be removed directly, allowing residual curd to be removed with a high-pressure water jet, eliminating the need for specialized cleaning agents. The tabletop and water retaining edge are seamlessly welded, eliminating dead corners and allowing for easy cleaning with a simple wipe. The universal wheels are covered with waterproof rubber to prevent whey from seeping in and rusting, eliminating the need to remove the wheels for cleaning. Compared to traditional fixed draining tables, the Cheese Draining Table only takes 20 minutes to clean, saving 1-2 hours of cleaning time per day and reducing the risk of product contamination caused by incomplete cleaning.
4. Versatile Adaptability to Meet Diverse Product Production
The Cheese Draining Table supports the draining needs of various cheese categories: the tabletop size is customizable, with small sizes suitable for draining small batches of soft cheese and large sizes for mass production of semi-hard cheese. The filter pore size is interchangeable, with fine pores for finer curds and coarse pores for larger curds. In addition, the tabletop can also be used temporarily as a curd storage table, allowing it to be rolled to the cold storage area for temporary storage. This eliminates the need for additional storage equipment, reducing equipment investment costs.
5. Durability and long-term investment
The core components of the equipment are made of highly durable materials: the tabletop and filter are made of 304 stainless steel, which is corrosion-resistant and deformation-resistant, with a service life of 8-10 years. The universal wheels are made of highly elastic rubber with high wear resistance, capable of bearing a total weight of 500kg. Even with an average of 10 moves per day, the wheels still have a service life of 3-5 years. The brake system uses metal brake pads for stable braking.
III. Multi-scenario Adaptability, Assisting Processing Plants of Different Sizes to Upgrade
The Cheese Draining Table provides flexible solutions to meet the needs of cheese processing plants of different sizes:
Small workshops: We recommend the small tabletop model. A single unit can meet daily draining needs. The universal wheels are suitable for narrow workshops and can be easily moved between the processing area and the cold storage area, eliminating the need for additional handling equipment and reducing startup costs.
Medium-sized processing plants: Choose the medium-sized tabletop model, which supports dual-station simultaneous draining. Two or three units can be used, each designed for different cheese types, to seamlessly integrate the draining and pressing processes within your production line, improving production efficiency.
Large-sized plants: Customizable extra-long tabletop models precisely connect to curd lines and pressing equipment. Universal casters allow for flexible adjustment of the tabletop position, adapting to batch production lines, reducing transfer time between processes and ensuring production continuity.
