Coffee preparation
The espresso machine and surrounding equipment form part of the coordinated preparation workflow.
Milk and pouring
Pitcher handling and controlled pouring are application development areas.
Service sequence
Preparation, transfer and presentation steps are evaluated as a complete task sequence.
Project workflow and application scope
A service automation application intended to integrate a robot arm with ordering, beverage preparation, dispensing, delivery and cleaning. Development and pilot work focus on coordinated equipment management and consistent service.
Intended benefit
Make service workflows traceable, use capacity more effectively at peak times and support consistent product quality.
Application areas
- Coffee chains and service locations
- Hotels, campuses and shopping centres
- Standard recipes and equipment coordination
