CFI innovates in the field of controlled proofing, a crucial stage in the bread-making process thanks to the new C-TouCh control.

Combining ergonomics and versatility, it has been developed using capacitive technology, allowing high precision in the management of proofing programmes. It thus offers many advantages for direct and deferred work.

Perfectly integrated at "human height" in the door of the proofing chambers and units, the C-TouCh control adapts to its user's processes and habits.

C-Touch: accessible state-of-the-art technology

The interface of the C-Touch control has been developed using "capacitive technology".

• Widely recognised and used in the telephony field where ergonomics is key, capacitive screens considerably simplify browsing and programming of appliances. Use of this process, back-lighting of keys and its large control panel, make use of the C-Touch control simple and intuitive.
• It is thus extremely simple to manage all the functions and parameters of controlled proofing (temperature, humidity) with one finger touch. Browsing from one programme to another, creating or modifying recipes, becomes child's play. Its perfectly flat and easy to clean surface is made in a shock-resistant material.
• Its design blends harmoniously into our range of controlled proofing appliances. The C-Touch is always at hand and creates a genuine multi-sensory environment.

Its performance makes it a genuine management tool, both in terms of organisation and economy. The C-Touch control helps to save energy and reduce the operating cost of each appliance in comparison with other electromechanical controls. This energy saving reaches 23% compared with an electromechanical control and is guaranteed by the precision and anticipation of its regulation system.

The C-Touch control makes all its multifunctional qualities available to you:

Two major types of programme are possible :
• Deferred programmes (automatic): proofing controlled up to 72 hours with proofing in stages, slow proofing per stage with a progressive increase in temperature and ventilation. Automatic cooling at the end of the cycle for each programme.
• Direct programmes (manual): Positive storage (automatic defrosting); direct and slow proofing at constant temperature and humidity rates.

The C-Touch includes technical bread-making recipes as standard and guarantees product integrity and quality thanks to its precise and adaptive management of temperature, humidity but also air flow depending on the programme chosen.

The C-Touch ensures optimised air holes in the dough, aroma and flavour, while making 23% energy savings in comparison with electromechanical controls.

Controlled proofing chambers and units

• Quality construction
• The enclosure consists of panels assembled by eccentric and centring hooks.
• Insulating panels are in "ecological" polyurethane foam: the expansion agent is water-based.
• Injection is at high pressure with guaranteed density of 45kg/m3. High pressure has the power to form extremely fine particles which increases the insulating power of the foam produced
• Interior and exterior panels are clad front and back in 6/10 electro-galvanised sheeting, covered in a food-safe high resistant 120 micron PVC film.
• Optional stainless steel version.
• Very high resistance in an aggressive environment and atmosphere.
• R404A ecological refrigerating system.

AF C-TouCh range: C-Touch proofing unit

For its versatility, the C-Touch control can be integrated in the whole controlled proofing unit range. The family of controlled proofing units in the AF range offers a very wide choice of definitions:

• AFV Patisserie controlled intermediate proofer
