The lives of modern workers are becoming increasingly busy, and with advancements in technology, there is a higher demand for a high-quality lifestyle. This has given rise to a new economic phenomenon called the “lazy economy”.

The “lazy economy” does not mean what it seems on the surface, but rather represents a lifestyle concept that focuses on efficiency and serves as a prelude to upgraded consumption. Perhaps, the driving force behind all technological advancements is the desire to be more efficient and save time.

Well-known examples such as floor-cleaning robots, delivery robots, self-driving technology, and more, are all products of the “lazy economy”.

Against this backdrop, a revolution in gastronomy is unfolding - the rise of cooking robots.

Q:

 Why Do we Need Cooking Robots?”

According to the definition of “robot” on Baidu Baike, a robot is an intelligent machine that can work semi-autonomously or autonomously.

It possesses basic characteristics such as perception, decision-making, and execution, and can assist or even replace humans in completing dangerous, heavy, and complex tasks, thus improving work efficiency and quality, serving human life, and expanding or extending the scope of human activities and capabilities.

In the catering industry, cooking robots will become a powerful tool to improve industry efficiency, taking charge in the kitchen.

The most recent notable appearance of cooking robots was at the Beijing Winter Olympics cafeteria.

While the Winter Olympics were in full swing, the cooking robots also successfully made their debut in unmanned restaurants, consistently producing delicious dishes with great taste, aroma, and presentation every 3 minutes on average. Whether it's Chinese clay pot rice or Western-style pasta, cooking robots have proven their capabilities.

T-Chef products

As a leading company in the cooking robot industry, T-Chef offers highly automated products that use technology to empower the catering industry and address the needs of practitioners in the current stage.

The main problems addressed by cooking robots are as follows:

1. Labor issues

They mainly solve the problem of substituting for back-end staff members. For example, difficulties in hiring chefs for restaurants, high difficulty in managing chefs, and the cost of chef employment due to store development.

In the past, every stove in the back kitchen needed a skilled chef to complete the workflow from ingredients to serving. The cooking robot can save at least half of the manpower. Even novices who do not know how to cook can operate 3-4 machines with ease after simple training and cook delicious dishes.

2.Food quality control during service

During peak dining periods, many restaurants, especially large chain restaurants, struggle to maintain consistent food quality.

T-Chef cooking robots can achieve standardized cooking processes, efficiently meeting customer dining demands during peak hours. On one hand, this saves customers' waiting time, enhancing customer satisfaction. On the other hand, it increases table turnover and improves restaurant profitability.

In order to meet the constantly changing taste preferences of customers, restaurants need to regularly update their menu offerings.

To address this issue, T-Chef collaborates with renowned culinary masters to establish a culinary research and development center.
