Introduction and Overview
The traditional method of washing the dishes are in the kitchen sink and it has been replaced by automatic dishwashing machines. Machine warewashing is an essential part of kitchen hygiene.
It is very important for an organization to understand the flow and the number of table wares. These contribute to the majority of the items being washed in the dishwasher because the way the tableware is being handled directly or indirectly influence the entire dishwashing operation. Industrial warewash machine are being used in large and small kitchen of a restaurants, large healthcare facilities or nursing homes and in very large kitchen in the in-flight catering services. The machines are also used for cleaning bakery crates, pots and pans, items used in operating rooms and in laboratory utensils. This essentially means that we are not only washing dishes and therefore we are mostly talking about ware washing and not about dishwashing
What is the objective of Machine Warewashing?
We consider a long list of things which influences the process of Machine Warewashing (MWW) such as design and maintenance of the machine, selection of appropriate type and model, desired results, cost competitiveness etc.
Below are the main objectives of Machine warewashings
Good wash results
Reliability of equipment
Efficient System
Economical
How do we achieve optimum wash result?
Optimum wash results can be achieved while we use the four factor of a sinner cycle in tune with each other.
Wash/rinse water temperatures has significant influence on wash results as well as achieving the hygiene results
Hot Water Wash and Sanitizing machine:
Note: It is in any case wrong to want to achieve high capacity per hour through very short contact times.
Optimum pump pressure during wash cycle, total coverage wares during wash system through flooding action, special wash jets
Basic System Requirements
It is essentially important to review the following requirements before deciding a machine:
Correct machine selection
Correct specifications
Water Conditions
How can we achieve efficient machine operations?
Principally it is important to understand how a mechanic ware washing machine works as you got to deal with it every day. The mechanical action in a machine has a major role in providing optimum wash results, productivity and cost of washing.
Any washing being manual or mechanical will have below basic steps
