About Imetec Pro I25 Profesionálny kávovar

Imetec Pro I25 je profesionálny kávovar navrhnutý pre bary a reštaurácie. Dve nezávislé kávové skupiny udržiavajú prevádzku v chode: ak sa jedna skupina zastaví, druhá pokračuje v práci. Patentovaný sparovací okruh využíva pri každej extrakcii čerstvú vodu, aby sa zabránilo jej stagnácii. Riadenie Thermopulse PID stabilizuje teplotu sparovania a patentovaný systém proti vodnému kameňu chráni vnútorné okruhy. Telo je vyrobené z laserom rezaných a ohýbaných plechov z nehrdzavejúcej ocele. Centrálny otvor oddeľuje ovládaciu zónu od mechanického jadra a otvára výhľad smerom k zákazníkovi.

Production Technology
The machine is manufactured using a robust structure based primarily on laser-cut and precision-bent stainless steel sheets, ensuring strength, durability, and ease of assembly. This approach reduces the number of components while maintaining high structural rigidity. Only a limited number of parts are produced in injection-molded ABS, mainly for functional interfaces and protective elements. This balanced combination of metal fabrication and minimal polymer components optimizes production efficiency, improves serviceability, and ensures long-term reliability in demanding professional environments.
Design Challenge
The project faced the challenge of preserving the original design vision while adapting it to the constraints of industrial production technologies. The dynamic form and central opening required careful engineering to be realized through sheet metal cutting and bending without compromising structural integrity. Continuous collaboration between design and engineering allowed the team to maintain the distinctive aesthetic while ensuring manufacturability, reliability, and efficiency in a professional coffee machine.
Research
The project was developed through close collaboration between the industrial design team, an experienced technical team specialized in professional coffee machines, and a dedicated graphical interface design team. This multidisciplinary approach enabled the integration of advanced brewing technologies, optimized mechanical architecture, and an intuitive user interface. Continuous exchanges between engineering, design, and UX development ensured functional reliability, efficiency, and a coherent interaction experience for professional baristas.
Inspiration
The design is inspired by a sense of dynamic tension and openness, expressing both technological precision and human interaction. The central opening is a defining element: it visually separates the user interface and control area from the mechanical core of the machine, clarifying functions while improving accessibility. At the same time, this architectural gesture creates a visual opening toward the customer, enhancing the relationship between barista, machine and client.
Project Duration
from October 2024 to October 2025 in Italy
Operation Flow
The machine integrates several patented technologies to ensure reliability and performance in professional environments. A patented brewing system uses fresh water for every extraction, eliminating stagnation and guaranteeing consistent flavor. The Thermopulse PID temperature control stabilizes brewing conditions, while a patented anti-scale system protects internal circuits and extends durability. Independent coffee groups ensure operational continuity, and intelligent energy management optimizes power consumption during use.
