Understanding the Horizontal Slow Juicer: A Deep Dive into Its Design and Functionality.

In the diverse world of juicing appliances, the horizontal slow juicer stands out for its unique features and versatile functionality. Originating as a concept similar to the Omega brand, it has evolved significantly over time. This article focuses exclusively on the horizontal slow juicer, detailing its design, features, and how it has become an integral part of modern kitchens.

Design and Multifunctionality

Resembling a meat grinder in appearance, the horizontal juicer has undergone continuous improvement. The same base unit now supports various attachments for juicing, meat grinding, salad making, ice cream production, and even pasta making. This multifunctional approach ensures that each product is powerful and versatile.

The Motor: Heart of the Juicer

The essence of the horizontal juicer is its slow extraction process. Equipped with an all-copper brushless DC motor, it operates at a low speed of 85-110 RPM with a torque that aligns with a 150W power output. This design ensures the noise level is kept around 65dB, equivalent to normal speech, making it unobtrusive in a household setting.

PCB: The Control Center

If the motor is the brain, the PCB is the heart of the juicer. It controls all critical functions – power output, gear adjustments, and safety controls. Moving away from traditional temperature control modes, our design incorporates a PCB that limits usage to 20 minutes, significantly extending the product’s lifespan and preventing motor burnouts due to overheating.

Material Composition

A horizontal slow juicer comprises various parts, each crafted from specific materials for optimal performance and safety:

Body: Durable ABS plastic.
Juice Feed Bucket: Food-grade PC plastic.
Pressing Bar and Tray: Food-grade ABS.
Screw: Food-grade PMMA, a special material for this purpose.
Strainer: Robust SUS304.
Front End Cover: Food-grade ABS.
Juice and Dregs Catching Cups: Food-grade AS BPA FREE.

Product Development Timeline

Developing a new product, even with a reference sample, is a meticulous process. From the initial idea to the final ID design, it takes at least 6 months. Post-ID design, engineers work on structural design, focusing on component fit, ventilation, safety, and more. Only after successful 3D prototype testing and 1000 cycles of life testing do we proceed with mold making and mass production. The entire process typically spans 6-12 months.

Investment and Testing

The financial investment in developing a new juicer is substantial, often exceeding 200,000 to 300,000 RMB, excluding R&D costs for juicing accessories. Additionally, extensive testing on various fruits and vegetables is conducted to ensure high juice yield and consumer satisfaction.

How the Juicer Works

The horizontal juicer simulates the chewing process. The screw structure gently extracts juice from fruits and vegetables. As there’s no contact with high-temperature metal, the juice is less prone to oxidation. However, it’s recommended to consume the juice within 30 minutes for optimal health benefits.

Health Tips

It’s important to note that juicing isn’t suitable for everyone. Individuals with kidney issues or diabetes must be cautious due to the high potassium content in fruits and vegetables and the need to monitor carbohydrate intake, respectively.

In conclusion, the horizontal slow juicer is a testament to innovation in the kitchen appliance industry, offering a blend of functionality, efficiency, and health-conscious technology.
