Robochef to be launched in the UK

The future of food processing could be in the substantial hands of a five-tonne industrial robot that can heat, mix and combine food products.

Developed in the UK by OAL in conjunction with the National Centre for Food Manufacturing at the University of Lincoln, the APRIL system has impressed with its ability to make chef-quality food on an industrial scale.

“OAL is transforming the food manufacturing industry through their technology. The APRIL system will kickstart the industry’s move towards fully automated production lines, allowing food to be produced quicker, with less waste and greater precision,” said Mark Reeve, chairman of the Eastern Agri-Tech Growth Initiative.

The system will be officially launched in the UK on 28 April.
