At the Crailsheim-Dinkelb\u00fchl dairy, 427,00 litres of raw milk are processed into cheese every day. The products have a high moisture content, which must be taken into account during production and the packaging process. A vacuum system from Busch Vacuum Solutions now ensures stable production and faster cycle times.<\/strong><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

An endless white conveyor belt constantly moves through the production hall in Crailsheim, Baden-W\u00fcrttemberg. Three recesses next to each other are constantly filled with blocks of white cheese by skilful hands. A colourfully printed film is placed over the packaging before it is evacuated, sealed and cut to size. In the meantime, a robot has already erected the cardboard boxes into which a Vacuum gripper arm gently lifts in the freshly packaged cheese<\/strong>. It is then sold under brand names or as a private label in supermarkets and discount stores throughout Germany.<\/p>

The Crailsheim-Dinkelsb\u00fchl milk plant was founded back in 1927. During the peak season from April to August, the co-operative's 232 employees work in three shifts, otherwise in two shifts. Each year they process 158 million litres of cow's milk from 335 farms in the region into 21,300 tonnes of cheese<\/strong>. In various fat and creaminess levels, in brine, diced in oil, with herbs, chilli or olives, as semi-hard cheese, natural or smoked. They have been honoured with nine gold and two silver awards from the German Agricultural Society DLG. <\/p>
