If we take the general definition, the technological equipment - a set of mechanisms involved in the establishment of final goods and services.
In other words, almost everything that surrounds us, can be attributed to it.Networks, servers, etc. - of the IT-equipment;scanners, ultrasound machines - part of the medical.In practice, however, when it comes to technological equipment, it means everything that is somehow related to the food industry and trade, since it is in these areas it has found the widest application.We consider this area in more detail.
first bread, then circuses
Technological equipment - is the center of any process of creating food.We proceed from the general to the particular, and for the study of its basic types according to the application:
- heat;
- mechanical;
- neutral;
- refrigeration.
Thermal
From the name itself it is clear what function performs this type of equipment for the production of food.
to be treated as usual ovens, stoves, boilers Food cooking, fryers and specific for the average steam tables (designed to maintain the desired temperature of the final product), macaroni, rotary ovens and combi steamers.
Mechanical
If you simplify, you refer to it all does work, without heating or cooling product.In other words, it's mixers, mixers, cutting machines and grinding machines, dishwashers, scales, and so on.
Neutral Neutral technological equipment - a certified furniture from stainless steel, without which it can not do either in production or in the kitchen in terms of catering.Despite the fact that these designs for the simplest thing, they must meet the same requirements as to more complicated positions.The integrity of the prescribed certificates neutral equipment should be inviolable.For example, if an end user will voluntarily in the bath washing tap hole, breaking the primary technology, this could be the reason for the penalty during the scan.
Refrigeration
Again, the name is clear.The equipment for production includes all kinds of plants for cooling and storing food.These include chamber refrigerators and freezers, cupboards and chests with similar functionality, camera shock freezing, which may, depending on the model, in the short term to bring the final product from + 70 ° to -18 ° C or -40 ° C.
Because of the complexity of installation and size of devices, many manufacturing plants when they sell their products to the end-face, the contract prescribed mandatory presence of a representative at the time when will be the installation of the process equipment, otherwise they do not carry the warranty,which again it will be stated in an official document, a binding deal.
Considered area of industry has always brought considerable profit.In this regard, the process of creating food complicates and improved along with the way mankind accumulating knowledge and skills.Of course, it played a significant role in this society itself that is aimed primarily at consumption.Man after a hard day want to visit the store and buy a loaf of bread at least, without complicating your life pastries.Technological equipment aimed specifically at reducing the distance between the customer and the product.Do not grind the flour, grow leaven, knead and bake bread - everything is up to you, just buy the finished product.
How to sell?
Urbanization leaving no chance of small shops that do business on the notebook.Of course, these organizations still exist, but their number has decreased significantly, giving way to sophisticated automated systems that record the deed of sale.In other words, commercial technical equipment - a set of mechanisms that allow to conduct reception, vacation, registration, storage and exhibition of products, minimizing the human factor.Items of trade and food processing equipment are similar, but there are some differences.Try to understand the art on the example of the supermarket.
example from everyday life
The main difference - in the scale of objects and functions of the first and second category.
products in a supermarket is stored on shelves for displaying goods that are characterized by ease of use for customers.
items that need cooling, again arranged so as to optimize the process of acquiring.A striking example - the open refrigerator, Bonnets and slides.In production they would be out of place, since they always something to be dropped, because all the open space.But for the self-service system is ideal.
balance on the trading floor are of the nature of the consumer in the first place.They have by no means the capacity of that at work.But the exploitation of technological equipment in this incarnation is facilitated to the maximum.The client approached, weighed, and went away.
as trade and technological equipment seems so specific apparatus as fiscal register (or in case of PFC battery life).Without it, in terms of legislation of the Russian Federation activities of the organization is not possible, as it had through cash receipt records accomplished the deed of sale.The package includes EKLZ fiscal record - a special tape that has a function of memory.EKLZ includes all wiring committed at the box office for a year and is available to the tax office.
In addition, a kind of trade and technological equipment - it is also the position for the production of "fast food".Totally to the food industry to create devices include cotton candy, popcorn, hot dogs, etc. Can not be, because they are purchased by end customers to directly benefiting.
Prospects
Needless to say that the main process equipment is bound to grow and become more complex?It is not out of date as a phenomenon, and will increasingly improve.People need food and technologies is undeniable, as a step back to the symbiosis of hunting and gathering impossible.In other words, scheduled specific reverse progression - the easier people will accrue to the production of end products, regardless of their composition and structure, the more difficult it will be technological equipment on which they are made.
Is it worth it?
Because of the importance of the final product, which is the basis of human life, the production process equipment exposed to the most severe control at all stages of creation.Owners of businesses that are just starting to work in the field of trade and the food industry need to understand that saying "miser pays twice" refers to him in the first place.If you save on equipment, there is a considerable risk of frequent breakages originally defective "iron", which hammered the sand in the wheels of production.Needless to episodic surge of greed, loss of benefits in the future?
