CHAKKA MAKING & BLENDING MACHINE
A chakka making and blending machine is the heart of shrikhand production β it separates whey from set curd to form chakka, then blends it with sugar and flavour into smooth, market-ready shrikhand. At ATMAN Group, we donβt just sell you the machine; we engineer it into a complete, balanced cultured-dairy line and commission it on your floor. As a single-window turnkey dairy plant executor since 2008 β with AMUL-trained engineering leadership behind us β we size, supply, install and validate chakka and blending as part of the whole process, not as a standalone box.
What the Machine Does
Set curd is dewheyed to produce chakka (strained curd), then blended with sugar and flavours β cardamom, saffron, dry fruit or fruit pulp β to a smooth, uniform body. It governs three commercial outcomes: whey separation and yield (which drive cost), texture and mouthfeel (which drive repeat purchase), and sweetness/flavour consistency (which protect your brand).
Types We Engineer
- Basket centrifuge β batch chakka separation, flexible for small and mid scale.
- Quarg / quark separator β continuous, high-throughput dewheying for commercial lines.
- Planetary / ribbon shrikhand blenders β smooth, uniform blending with sugar and flavour.
- Sugar & flavour dosing units β precise, repeatable recipes across SKUs.
All contact parts are hygienic SS-304 stainless steel, built to FSSAI and 3-A sanitary practice, with CIP-compatible design so cleaning is validated, not guessed.
Capacity & Output
We match chakka and blending capacity to your target daily output β from basket-centrifuge units for regional brands and FPOs, through to continuous quarg separators for commercial and cooperative scale. Sized in balance with your fermentation and filling stages so no stage becomes a bottleneck.
Where It Fits in Your Line
This is what separates a machine seller from a turnkey executor. Chakka and blending only perform as well as the set curd feeding them and the filling that follows. ATMAN engineers the complete flow β culturing and set, chakka separation, blending and dosing, chilling and cup filling β as one integrated, CIP-linked system with matched capacities and synchronized batch tracking, with recoverable whey as a byproduct stream.
Why Buy from a Turnkey Executor, Not Just a Machine Supplier
- Yield-first engineering β separation and blending tuned to your curd and recipe, not a generic spec sheet.
- Single-window accountability β design β supply β installation β commissioning β after-sales under one contract.
- Proven at scale β delivered within larger turnkey dairy projects for cooperative federations and NDDB-commissioned builds.
- Compliance-ready β FSSAI, BIS-rated electricals, food-grade materials, statutory audits pass first time.
- ISO 9001:2015 certified quality processes with documented, traceable specs.
Frequently Asked Questions
Basket centrifuge or quarg separator β which?
Basket centrifuge suits batch and mid scale; a quarg separator gives continuous, higher-throughput chakka for commercial lines. We size to your output.
What happens to the separated whey?
Itβs recoverable β it can feed a whey-processing stream (we also build whey plants).
Can you handle multiple flavours?
Yes β dosing is configured for your flavour and SKU range.
