A product’s successis based firstly on its exceptional quality, here: a “natural” flavor and a creamy and smooth “mouthfeel”. Compared to traditional manual and time-intensive methods,whey is today separated with the aid of GEA centrifuges at 10,000 times the force of gravity in order to obtain the desired product – with a quality and taste that equals the original in its full-bodied creaminess.
Customer benefits
Depending on the individual process, our centrifuges offer decisive advantages, for example compared with the membrane filtration process:
- Constant flow rate
- Constant product characteristics (e.g. with respect to texture or total solids)
- Option of direct filling after concentration
- Easy integration into existing process line
- Quick and easy adaptation of total solids
- Option of integration into an existing CIP line
- Long operating times (minimum 16 hours) compared with alternative processes
- No addition of stabilizers and powders required
Highly efficient and flexible production
GEA nozzle separators are used in the production of
- Quark (standard or Thermo Quark process, from buttermilk, from recombined milk)
- Fresh cheese
- Strained yoghurt (Labaneh)

The product is fed into the machine via a closed system. The whey is discharged under pressure via a centripetal pump and the fresh cheese is released via the nozzles to a solids catcher and floats further down to the cheese hopper.
