<p>Filter for use in the processing of pasty foods, especially in processed cheese production, having a closed housing (12) with a feed inlet (16) for the product to be filtered, a drain (20) for the filtered product, an output for the filtered-out residue, and a filter insert (14) that is located between the feed inlet (16) and drain (20) with a cylindrical filter wall through which the product flows in the radial direction from the inside to the outside, whereby a pivotable core element (30) is provided that is located coaxially in the filter insert (14), whereby between the core element (14) and the filter wall a defined annulus (36) is formed, the core element (30) being dimensioned in such a way that the annulus (36) that forms enables a constant flow of the product, and on the outer periphery of the core element (30) there being at least one scraper (38) that scrapes on the inner surface of the filter wall as the core element (30) turns for removing the residue.</p> |
