A hopper is loaded with random washed silverware, about 100 at a time, then the hopper shakes and pivots to align the silverware; to be strafed by a replaceable polishing cloth, several pieces at one time, until the hopper is empty!
Restaurant businesses will now be more equipped to handle a large dinner
rush! Faster silverware polishing is an opportunity for more customers

I did a search for one. If one is for sale I could be interested. |

How about tumbling the silverware in a
giant vat of sawdust? |
|
| |
sawdust ? where do you come from? |
|
| |
I would like to understand but is it possible? |
|
| |
I come from a country that has trees and
silverware. Also, from a background in
manufacturing in which small components
were polished by tumbling in abrasives or
sawdust, depending on the material and
the finish required. |
|
| |
Tumbling in sawdust is going to be
cheaper, faster and more effective than a
complex mechanism, if you want to
process many irregular objects in parallel. |
|
| |
Ok, It could work, a synthetic kind of name brand "sawdust". My concern is that dust or saw does not go very well with serving food. |
|
| |
Thanks MaxwellBuchanan! I now need to invent sanitary sawdust or something, so I dont have to re-wash the silver. |
|
| |
As long as the cutlery is dry, sawdust
won't stick to it. Some sawdusts are
more or less adhesive than others. Pine
sawdust, for example, is awful.
Medium-coarse sawdust from dense
hardwoods, if they've been properly
seasoned in the first place, is non-
sticky and can be dusted off with a puff
of air. |
|
| |
But I'm curious - don't regular industrial
dishwashers leave cutlery shiny enough
for regular use? And in the best
restaurants, is the throughput high
enough to justify a machine? |

At the Emmerson Grill where I presently work we polish because of small water spots left, if dried without buffing them. speaking of which I gotta buff some silver, I call the process; blessing good thoughts into the cutlery. |
|
| |
Do you mean the Emerson Grill? |
|
| |
The device appears to be baked (link), though I guess that depends on what you mean when you say "silverware". I use it as a generic term for cutlery, but you may mean _silver_ silverware and I'm not sure I'd put anything valuable in one of these things. |
|
| |
I'll slam some butter knives, forks, and spoons in to the cheap metal, geared, jurry rigged maybe a litte noisy and not to worry about loosing a few utencils. About 6 to 8 inches long . Yes I just can see it now. As much silverware as I got the waitresses to do: about 20 minutes. They could have been doing something much more important, in my opinion. Think of it as the operator of a business in which simple job functions can be automated motions, everyone should check out my favorite inspirational person Fredrick Winslow Taylor! |

I don't know, I mean I've got a N in my name, and my spell checker wasn't working and I just barely graduated and I'm trying not to be nervious. |

//we polish because of small water spots
left, if dried without buffing them.// IN
that case, there's a much cheaper and
simpler solution. Just rinse in
demineralized water before drying. You
can get a laboratory-grade demineralizer
fairly cheaply. All laboratory glassware is
rinsed in demin before air-drying, and is
spotless. |

From the looks of it, some folks seem to have been around for a couple of lifetimes to have the ability to display poletheras of working knowledge. Evaluating solutions to my ponderings. The halfbakery is the best. |

Even if you had spelt plethora(s) correctly, I think you’ll find the plural is plethora. |
|
| |
Despite the fun it might be, the word "plethora" suffers no plural form. |
|
| |
But I can envision its usefulness, if merely for the fun of it: "There is a plethora of reasons to believe you are right, but there are several plethorae of reasons to believe the opposite." |
|
| |
yes, confusing is sometimes fun, unless you are at work, then confusing turns my face red. anyone having fun yet, yep.. what cha did'ja now. |
