In modern commercial kitchens, every second counts: temperature, time and consistency must be perfectly coordinated – even under the most demanding conditions. Appliances such as combi steamers, mixers and cooking stations operate in an environment characterised by heat, steam and cleaning agents. At the same time, users expect intuitive, fast and hygienic operation.

This is precisely where the Encoder 582 from ddm hopt+schuler comes into its own. It combines a display and control element in a compact module, enabling particularly space-saving integration into professional kitchen appliances. The combination of rotary and push functions ensures precise and convenient control, even when wearing gloves or with wet hands. Thanks to its robust design with IP65 protection, the encoder remains reliable even with regular cleaning and in humid environments.

The integrated display can be customised, shows clearly structured menus and guides the user intuitively through all functions. From temperature control and cooking times to individual programmes.

The Encoder 582 thus contributes to making modern kitchen technology more intelligent, hygienic and durable. It combines function, design and efficiency in a single control element and offers manufacturers a robust and elegant solution for professional use.
