What problems does this solve for operators? The iCareSystem AutoDose allows foodservice professionals to focus on what they love — cooking and hospitality — and less on staffing issues and equipment maintenance. By automating cleaning cycles, iCareSystem AutoDose ensures dependable and precise upkeep, reducing equipment malfunctions and enhancing kitchen efficiency. Additionally, this innovation extends equipment lifespan, freeing chefs and staff to concentrate on culinary creativity and customer service, rather than routine appliance care. Plus, it reduces team training requirements, which is especially beneficial for businesses with high employee turnover.
What helps this stand out in the market? The iCareSystem AutoDose stands out as a unique, fully automated cleaning system for iHexagon and tabletop iCombi Pro units, a feature not found in competing products.
With iCareSystem AutoDose, cleaning is completely autonomous, if desired. It starts according to a predetermined schedule and takes exactly the right dose from the integrated, solid cleaner. The system uses only the exact amount necessary for optimal hygiene. This innovation ensures precise maintenance, maintains hazard analysis and critical control point (HACCP) data integrity and extends equipment lifespan.
What current equipment or material trends does this product incorporate? More and more, automation is showing up in commercial kitchens. The iCareSystem AutoDose cleaning system — available on iCombi Pro tabletop model and iHexagon cooking systems — follows this
trend by enabling overnight automated cleanings, adding a virtual third shift to the kitchen. This automation not only extends the lifespan of the cooking system by ensuring regular maintenance and reducing wear, but it also frees up kitchen staff to focus on more meaningful tasks.
What information should dealers be sure to share when discussing this product with operators? The iCareSystem AutoDose is a transformative innovation for all foodservice operators, regardless of segment. Available with the iHexagon and tabletop iCombi Pro cooking systems, the fully integrated iCareSystem AutoDose system automatically administers the correct dosage of cleaning agents during each cycle. This reduces labor needs for routine maintenance, meaning that kitchen team members no longer need to handle cleaning chemicals, freeing them to focus on other kitchen tasks. It also saves on cost, as the automatic dispenser eliminates the need to round up, as with cleaner tabs.
