Manufacturer Challenges the CH-300 Solves

High Development Costs

The CH-300 streamlines development by eliminating point-to-point wiring and offering a pre-engineered, configurable platform. OEMs save on design time, reduce assembly labor, and cut overall R&D expenses.

Product Differentiation

With advanced recipe programming, intuitive displays, and HACCP-ready connectivity, the CH-300 helps OEMs build smarter appliances that stand out from competitors while boosting brand value.

Inconsistent Food Quality

Precise electronic timing and temperature control ensure consistent cooking results every time. Commercial kitchen manufacturers can deliver appliances that improve food quality, reduce waste,  and improve customer satisfaction.

Appliance Downtime

Built-in diagnostics, service maintenance scheduling, and auto-repair alarms extend appliance life,  reduce service calls, increase reliability,  and customer loyalty.

Complex Global Integration

The CH-300’s compact design, tab-selectable voltage, and RoHS compliance reduce the number of SKUs and inventory costs, making global deployment easier.

Time-Consuming Training

User-friendly programming keys, an intuitive encoder knob, and clear status displays reduce operator errors and shorten training time for new users.
