Large scale producers of cheese and dairy products must contend with a fermented product that is sold in blocks, sliced, soft or hard and often is sold as an ingredient like grated cheese. Cleaning cheese residue is critical given the speed with which biofilm and lactic deposits can form on belts. Grated cheese is packed in frozen bulk loads for pizza bakeries and frozen food companies or in individual packs for retail. Modular belts were traditionally used on these elevators. Several problems were solved by changing to Volta SuperDrive™. Product no longer gets trapped in the spaces between belt modules, cleaning materials and water are reduced, time was saved while cleaning very inconvenient, sometimes inaccessible locations inside the processing room.
