Solutions · Pilot and development plants

From product idea to documented process

We develop flexible pilot and small-scale plants for developing, testing and producing cheese on a smaller scale.

In brief – for those making the investment decision

Potential operational effect

Development and testing without tying up capacity in the production line.

Basis for calculation

  • Number of trials per year
  • Batch sizes
  • Production time freed up
  • Changeover time
  • Staffing

Risk and other value

Repeatable trials with process data that can serve as the basis for scale-up – and the possibility of fewer trials in ongoing production.

The expected effect is calculated from your baseline and depends on product, process, capacity and operation.

The starting point

Real processes on a smaller scale

The plant makes it possible to repeat and document trials without tying up a full production line.

The functions are developed to reflect the production the results will later be used in. That is the difference between a trial that can be scaled up and a trial that only holds true in the laboratory.

  • Repeatable trials
  • Documented process data
  • Smaller batch sizes
  • Flexible operation

Possible scope

What the plant can include

The scope is agreed based on what you need to develop and document – from individual process steps to a complete cheese plant on a small scale.

  • Pasteurization or heat treatment
  • Small-scale cheese vat
  • Dosing of cultures and ingredients
  • Coagulation, cutting and stirring
  • Draining, mold filling and pressing
  • Tanks, pumps, valves and piping
  • CIP (cleaning-in-place), automation and data logging

In practice

A complete small-scale cheese plant

Novonesis

HSV Combi has delivered a complete small-scale cheese plant to Novonesis. The plant makes it possible to test new cultures and rennet in a realistic cheese process and to produce full-size cheeses of up to 20 kg.

How we start

Start with what you need to investigate

Tell us which processes the trials need to cover and which production the results will later be used in. We build the scope up from there.
