Like all our machines, the UNICA is made within the guidelines of the DIR CEE 83/392, 92/46, 91/368, DPR 54/97 and conforms to the strict American standards set up by the USDA. This means:
- easy dismantling of all parts coming into contact with the product;
- easy cleaning of these same parts;
- use of legally approved materials only;
- protection against infiltration by motorization lubricants;
- absence of slack points and/or product infiltrations.

The whole machine is made of stainless steel AISI 304.  In addition, the parts coming into contact with the processed substances are covered with a PTFE membrane (Dupont Teflon) synthesized at high temperatures.  Or, alternatively, they are made of comestible plastic materials falling under the guidelines stipulated by law for materials coming into contact with alimentary products.  Unica, the machine with the plunging-arm spinning system, was designed and modelled to adapt to any moulding system.  First, the curds are introduced into the manual cutting section. In this section, the curd blocks are put into the cylindrical feed-box and here they undergo a cutting action by three adjustable blades (in order to obtain slices of different thickness in relation to the desired type of process).  Once cut, the paste is inserted into the spinning hopper into which, thanks to the dipping arm, it is delicately threaded.  The threading speed is easily adjustable using the controls found on the general control panel; hence, adapting to any and all productive requirements with regard to the degree of humidity.  The hot water needed for the threading must be furnished by the internal onsite installations to the dairy product using piping and suitable electro pumps; or,  by using the hot water opening that may be installed on the machine (optional).  The whey is discharged through lateral holes mounted on the tank and is sent to a collecting tank from which it is sucked out by an electro pump.  The threading and moulding section are rendered independent through a watertight door that insures against any type of contamination between the two sections. The door is easily manageable using a guillotine system.  Subsequent to the spinning section, the curd drops directly into the moulding section, which in this machine is fitted to the threading section.  The M50B99 mould forms a single body with the threading section.
