- 15 - Abstract Cheese curd is compressed into blocks by feeding the curd into the top of a hollow tower having a perforated lining while the tower is at a sub-atmospheric pressure to form a pillar of curd supported on a guillotine blade at the bottom of the tower, the guillotine blade is then withdrawn, the pillar of curd lowered by an elevator, and the guillotine blade returned to the closed position so as to cut off a block of curd from the bottom of the pillar of curd. The tower comprises a tubular casing, and the perforated lining comprises a pre-formed tube formed as an integral structure prior to the fitting of the tube into the tower. The tube is spaced from the wall of the tower to form a drainage passage for whey pressed out from the curd in the pillar by the weight of superimposed curd, the whey passing into the drainage passage through apertures in the tube.
