Double Zero Multi-Purpose Vat – Dairy Sector

Dairy sector, Design and development of processing machinery:
DE.MA. srl designs and develops, Double Zero multi-purpose vats in various capacities

The Double Zero multi-purpose vat is a versatile machine for dairies, designed to ensure maximum efficiency and precision in the processing of milk and curd. Thanks to its distinctive double-zero configuration, this solution enables optimal management of the different stages of processing, ensuring uniformity and consistent quality of the final product.

The Double Zero multi-purpose vat for cheese production allows continuous execution of coagulation, curd cutting, cooking, whey drainage and mixing operations, reducing mechanical stress on the curd mass and improving overall process yield. Communication between the two vats ensures smooth product movement, without interruptions or transfers.

Manufactured entirely from AISI 304 / 316 stainless steel, the Double Zero multi-purpose vat is built to the highest hygienic standards, with ground TIG welds and surfaces designed to facilitate cleaning and sanitisation. Integrated heating and cooling systems ensure precise thermal control, while automation enables intuitive management of recipes and processing parameters.

Designed for both artisanal and industrial dairies, the Double Zero multi-purpose vat represents a reliable, flexible and high-performance solution for those seeking build quality, process control and production versatility in a single machine.

The following aspects were considered during the design and manufacturing stages:

  • Technology of the products to be processed;
  • Quantity of milk to be processed;
  • Production room layout and space constraints;
  • Numerous improvements over previous multi-purpose vats, particularly in terms of hygiene and safety during curd processing;
  • Flexibility of use;
  • Flexible software allowing multiple operating configurations;
