Better Cheese Plus Huge Energy Savings

Dec. 3, 2012
Drive technology meets nature in artisan cheese production.

Gunn’s Hill Cheese in Woodstock, Canada, is in no doubt about the value of their Danfoss (www.danfoss.com) VLT frequency converters when making their artisan cheeses. “Without the drives I wouldn’t be making good cheese,” reported Shep Ysselstein, the owner of Gunn’s Hill.

With energy savings of up to 50 percent, VLT drives provide the efficiency, reliability and most importantly the quality that Shep Ysselstein is looking for.

In challenging old school ideas about fixed speed pumps and motors in processing equipment, this cheese maker has demonstrated how the use of frequency converters in dairy production can maximize efficiency.
