ABSTRACT:
A molds is filled with cheese by an apparatus that includes an extruder which injects cheese through the opening in the mold. A plunger is located adjacent to the mold and is contacted by moveable wall of the mold as cheese fills a mold cavity. An actuator may be provided to varying the position of the plunger in order to accommodate different size molds. A sensor coupled to the plunger measures the force exerted by the cheese against the moveable wall. Aa controller receives a force signal from the sensor and produces an output signal when the force reaches a predetermined level. The output signal activates a knife blade which cuts off further injection of cheese into the mold cavity.
