Why automatic dosing is essential
In a self-service laundry the customer does not control the dose. Automatic dosing ensures that every cycle receives the exact amount of detergent and fabric softener, regardless of the load type, time of day or the user's judgement.
Without automation, manual dosing leads to 15–30% variation between cycles. That translates into inconsistent results, uncontrolled costs and unpredictable complaints.
Types of system
| System | Operation | Precision | Cost |
|---|---|---|---|
| Peristaltic pumps | Volume-calibrated strokes | High (±2%) | Medium |
| Venturi / suction | Suction driven by water pressure | Medium (±5–10%) | Low |
| Gravity / volumetric | Fixed doses per compartment | Low (±15–20%) | Very low |
| Intelligent systems with telemetry | Automatic load/soil adjustment | Very high (±1%) | High |
