Big Christmas banquets create mountains of dirty dishes, glasses, crockery and cookware. Clearing and washing up post-banquet can be a huge task, with the requirements varying from one commercial kitchen to another. Winterhalter’s MTR range of rack conveyor dishwashers enables banquet caterers to turn around dirty plates and glasses quickly and easily, while also saving energy, costs and resources.
The versatility, performance and reliability of Winterhalter’s MTR range is a big bonus with banqueting, delivering hygienically sparkling results on everyday and more delicate, finer tableware, without the need to switch between various programmes or use separate detergents. This flexibility extends to glassware, with no need to wash glasses separately.
The MTR’s wash arms are specially designed for the speedy throughput while at the same time achieving outstanding wash results. Even the smallest MTR2 is capable of processing up to 155 racks per hour while the largest MTR4 can now process up to 350 racks per hour.
The MTR is a modular system comprising of different zones: the loading zone, the pre-wash zone, the main wash zone, the rinse zone, the drying zone and the unloading zone. The MTR can be programmed so that pumps and fans in each zone are only operated if loaded racks are inside it, reducing energy costs and resources. The optional detergent saving device, which channels some of the rinse water back into the prewash zone, reduces detergent use by up to 50%.
Accessible to all
To save time the MTR machines have time-controlled start-up, which allows the machine to fill and heat up automatically before staff even start their shift. Easy to remove components make for trouble-free maintenance.
MTR machines are easy to use, thanks to a SmartTouch multifunctional, multilingual touchscreen that tells operators all they need to know using easy-to-read text and symbols to help eliminate operator errors – especially useful for temporary or new staff, who can operate the machine with little training. The touchscreen allows for comprehensive monitoring at all times, storing HACCP and relevant hygiene data, and even monitoring external water treatments, such as the RoMatik 420, to enable quick responses to error messages and reducing downtime.
As well as washing banqueting dishes perfectly the MTR machines keep themselves clean, too. The automatic self-cleaning programme guarantees a hygienic interior at all times, ensuring perfect wash results and reducing the need for manual cleaning. Meanwhile the smooth, seamless interior surfaces of the dishwasher means there are no nooks or crannies to trap dirt or bacteria.
To minimise operating costs the Mediamat wash water filtration cleans the tank water of floating particles – reducing water, power, and detergent consumption throughout the operating cycle.
Further savings are achieved with an exhaust air heat recovery system that uses the energy of the machine’s warm exhaust air to heat up the cold incoming water. As well as reducing energy consumption this also reduces the ambient temperature of the warewash area, making a more pleasant working environment.

More speed, same outstanding wash
Hospital catering operations create huge quantities of dirty dishes that need to be washed fast so they are ready for the next mealtime. However hospitals cannot risk compromising on hygiene for the sake of a quick turnaround.
To address this problem Winterhalter, the warewashing specialist, has re-engineered the wash arms on its MTR range of rack conveyor dishwashers so the speed of throughput can be considerably increased while at the same time achieving outstanding wash results.
The MTR range takes care of all the dishwashing needs of a high volume kitchen. The machines are simple to use, energy efficient, economical to run and are designed to offer the ultimate in hygiene, performance and reliability.
The new speeds make the smallest MTR2 capable of processing up to 155 racks per hour while the largest MTR4 can now process up to 350 racks per hour.
To mimimise operating costs the Mediamat washwater filtration removes contaminating particles permanently from the tank water - reducing water, power, and detergent consumption throughout the operating cycle. Winterhalter’s OptiWash feature adjusts the rinse aid intake, jet pressure and jet angle for the maximum wash effectiveness.
Further savings are achieved with an exhaust air heat recovery system that uses the energy of the machine’s warm exhaust air to pre-heat incoming water.
The MTR is a modular system comprising of different zones: the loading zone, the pre-wash zone, the main wash zone, the rinse zone, the drying zone and the unloading zone. A contents-controlled zone activation system only operates pumps and fans in each zone if loaded racks are actually present.
The MTR machines are a big hit with staff as a time-controlled start-up allows the machine to fill and heat up automatically before they start their shift. Meanwhile Autoclean - an automatic self-cleaning system - ensures the machine is cleaned with hot fresh water at the end of the washing day, minimising the need for manual cleaning.
A SmartTouch multifunctional, multilingual touch screen has self-explanatory symbols and animations to help eliminate operator errors – this is especially useful for temporary, new or foreign staff, who may not be familiar with the machine. The SelfControl hygiene log stores all HACCP and relevant hygiene data in the machine to be retrieved at any convenient time.
Winterhalter provides a total solution for warewashing, from pre-sales advice to after-sales service, training and maintenance. Alongside its market-leading dish and glasswashers, the company’s range includes utensil washers, advanced water treatment machines, cleaning chemicals and detergents.
