- Typical capacity
- For this class of equipment, throughput can vary significantly, typically processing several hundred kilograms of cheese per hour depending on block size and desired cut.
- Power supply
- Commonly found on units of this type, power requirements are typically single-phase 230V or three-phase 400V, with power consumption generally low for manual or semi-automatic models.
- Cutting mechanism
- Units often feature wire, blade, or ultrasonic cutting systems, selected based on cheese type and desired cut quality.
- Material construction
- Typically constructed from food-grade stainless steel (e.g., 304 or 316) for hygiene and durability, suitable for washdown environments.
- Footprint
- Tabletop models typically range from 600mm x 600mm, while larger standalone units can be up to 1500mm x 1000mm, requiring adequate space for operation and material handling.
- Suitable cheese types
- Designed for cutting various cheese types, from soft to very hard, though specific cutting tools may be required for optimal results with different consistencies.
