With outstanding products consecutively winning IFA Product Technical Innovation Award, Midea achieved great success again in Germany

BERLIN, Sept. 1, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- As a leading global player in consumer appliances, Midea has won the fame for its leading-edge technology in 2017 IFA Product Technical Innovation Award. Midea Rice Cooker MB-PFZ3503 (http://www.tiaward.cn/news/detail/280) was awarded with Multi-stage IH Heating Technology Gold Award, meanwhile its Beverly JSQ30-16HI (http://www.tiaward.cn/news/detail/281) received the Zero Cooling Water Technology Innovation Gold Award.

Established through the joint effort of IDG and GIC, IFA Product Technical Innovation Award called the international award for global enterprises of consumer electronics, has started in full swing.  As for IFA - this has become the central platform for producers and traders of consumer electronics worldwide to display their products, increase communications, and find out potential cooperation opportunities. Meanwhile, it also serves as the platform for consumer electronics industry to exchange information and obtain consulting services.

It is unsurprising that Midea is a big winner in the award, which shows its outstanding technology in the products.

Beverly JSQ30-16HI8 which also has a name- Lintom I8 is the unique product, not only for its trans-boundary design but also for its captious requirements on time and temperature. Being critical to the value of time to create great fortune, in 2014, Midea promoted the generation I Zero-cold Water product without the return water pipe. 

With 3 years of effort, over 900 days, today, Midea is providing the brand new Zero-cold Water product - Lintom I8, with strong power - it can heat the water faster; compared with the traditional product, the time of heating water to setting temperature is shortened by 40%.

For a house of 150m², it only costs 2 minutes to supply hot water for the whole house. It can reduce the waiting time for 220 minutes every month. Midea hopes to shorten the waiting time, and the customer can do other things and save more time.

Lintom I8 adopts the turbocharged cycle engine and aerospace ceramic shaft with the vortex impeller layout, the included angle of vortex impeller keeps at 60°, and the rotation speed reaches 3000rpm/min. Midea strives for a smooth procedure of hot water flow and precision of every component, after 17 months of adjusting and commissioning.

Besides thinking on the value of time, Midea is also thinking about the significance of temperature and also how to keep hot water in constant supply. The change of external water pressure and air pressure, the water supply and stops during showers, which makes the fluctuation of water temperature, and results in an uncomfortable feeling for people. It is shown from research, the temperature difference sensed by human skin is 2°C, if it exceeds 2°C, the pores of skin will contract or open, which will cause an uncomfortable feeling. Midea has been dedicated to the research and development of stepless constant temperature cabin technology, and is capable of providing hot water of constant temperature with the perfect feeling to human skin, and the temperature difference is controlled at +/- 0.5°C

As to Rice Cooker MB-PFZ3503, it applied 5 core technologies to ensure each rice grain is evenly heated in the cooking process, and further promotes the taste quality of rice.

- IH heating technology with high-speed, broadband frequency, partition control. Drive the bottom and side areas for independent heating, alternative heating, and high-speed joint heating, and implement different heating control and combinations in the cooking process, so as to reduce the possibility of rice blocks formed in the intensive heating area. And meanwhile, in the boiling process, drive the bottom and side areas for alternative and interactive heating, guide bi-directional stirring and rolling, and finally promote the balanced heating and water absorption of rice grains.

- Bumping control technology by instant voltage transformation. Control the change of pressure flow inside the pot, and during the initial boiling period for rice cooking, as the rated voltage is certain times higher than the normal level, it will instantly release the pressure through large-diameter exhaust vent. And due to the sharp decrease of pressure, the boiling temperature of the rice inside the pot will decrease, which will cause the rice and water inside the pot generating drastic collapse-type boiling. In the next stage this technology helps to realize the objective of reaching balanced temperature field as well as the fluffy, ventilate, and balanced heating of rice.

- M-Smart system - smart unlimited technology. Automatically match rice type, select different tastes, and act as the cooking process reminder. Possess the smart identification of rice type, internally set with a bulk of rice type cooking curve, and automatically match the best cooking program.

- Shell integrated punch forming technology. Implement seamless connection, the blank will be subject to overall wiredrawing after fine polishing, and then formed after being subject to anodic oxidation colouring treatment, chemical polishing and other technologies, and it possesses advantages, such as high gloss, high strength and corrosion resistance, which can be enough to make it a masterpiece.

- Vacuum pot technology. It is exclusively designed with a bottom boiling ring, which can make the heat form intensive convection, also making the bubbles generate and float evenly and densely, and finally the rice be evenly heated; it adopts vacuum layer design and vacuum layer manufacturing, which can effectively prevent the heat from being lost at the side of the liner, and realize constant heat preservation under power-off condition.
