Material Composition | Commercial kitchens, high-traffic restaurants | Stainless Steel 316 (ASTM A240) ▲▲ vs Stainless Steel 304 (ASTM A240) vs Food-grade plastic (ASTM D6475) | ▲▲ Advanced: Corrosion-resistant for acidic/salty foods (e.g., sushi vinegar). Base: Durable for daily use. Industry: Cost-effective but limited durability. | ▲▲ Advanced: Higher cost. Industry: Prone to scratches and chemical damage. |
Machine Dimensions | Space-constrained kitchens, home use | 45x30x20 cm (Base) ▲ vs 40x28x18 cm (Advanced) vs 50x35x25 cm (Industry) | ▲ Advanced: Compact for small spaces. Base: Standard size for moderate setups. Industry: Larger capacity but bulky. | ▲▲ Advanced: Sacrifices some capacity for compactness. Industry: Requires dedicated storage space. |
Roller Automation | High-volume sushi production | Variable-speed rollers (up to 10 RPM) ▲▲ vs Fixed-speed rollers (5 RPM) vs Manual rollers (0 RPM) | ▲▲ Advanced: 10 RPM ▲▲ (handles 120 rolls/hour). Base: 5 RPM (60 rolls/hour). Industry: Manual operation (15 rolls/hour). | ▲▲ Advanced: Requires training for speed adjustments. Industry: Labor-intensive. |
Customization | Specialty sushi shops, dietary needs | 5+ adjustable parameters (size, pressure, shape) ▲▲ vs 3 parameters (Base) vs Fixed settings (Industry) | ▲▲ Advanced: Custom sushi sizes (e.g., 4–6 cm diameter). Base: Basic adjustments for standard rolls. Industry: No customization. | ▲▲ Advanced: Steeper learning curve. Industry: Inflexible for creative dishes. |
Control Interface | Professional chefs, home users | Touchscreen + presets (Advanced) ▲▲ vs Digital buttons (Base) vs Manual dials (Industry) | ▲▲ Advanced: Pre-set modes (e.g., "California Roll" ▲▲). Base: Adjustable via numbered buttons. Industry: Manual calibration only. | ▲▲ Advanced: Higher maintenance cost. Industry: Error-prone for novices. |
Production Efficiency | Catering events, busy lunch hours | 120 sushi rolls/hour ▲▲ vs 60 rolls/hour (Base) vs 15 rolls/hour (Industry) | ▲▲ Advanced: 120 rolls/hour ▲▲ (meets peak demand). Base: 60 rolls/hour (moderate throughput). Industry: Manual speed limits output. | ▲▲ Advanced: Requires bulk rice preparation upfront. Industry: Time-intensive for large orders. |
