Cheese Pre-Presses – PLEVNIK Cheese Mass Draining and Pre-Pressing Equipment

The range of cheese pre-presses by PLEVNIK is designed to support efficient draining, pre-pressing, cutting, and molding of cheese mass in professional dairy processing environments. These systems offer flexible and reliable solutions for cheesemakers producing a wide variety of cheese types, from soft to semi-hard and hard cheeses.

The PRP-R multipurpose pre-press is engineered to perform several key processing steps within a single unit. It receives the cheese mass, drains whey, applies compressed-air pre-pressing, allows manual cutting of the cheese mass into the desired block sizes, and presses the mass into cheese molds. Its versatile design makes it suitable for small-batch production of semi-hard and hard cheeses, soft cheese production, and whey drainage operations, offering excellent ease of use and process control.

The second pre-press configuration features a drainage conveyor belt combined with movable bridges and cutting blades positioned at the front of the vessel. The movable bridges can be arranged along the table according to the volume of cheese mass being processed, allowing simple and flexible manual pre-press adjustment. The integrated conveyor belt enables cutting and transporting cheese blocks, significantly improving workflow efficiency and production speed.
