About Glacier Shaqada Koowaad: Mashiinka Dhaqista Cuntada

Qoraalka Buugga: Glacier waa mashiin dhaqista cuntada loogu talagalay jikooyinka guriga. Glacier wuxuu ka saaraa hadhaagga sunta dabeecadda (pesticides), biraha culus, bacrimintada iyo bakteeriyada isagoo adeegsanaya soo-saaraha ion-ka biyaha hydroxyl. Jirka mashiinka waxaa lagu soo saaraa qaab-dhismeedka duulista (injection molding) isagoo adeegsanaya ABS iyo PC, halka aag weyn oo daah-furan uu mashiinka siinayo muuqaal lakabyo leh. Polygons-ka aan la taaban karin iyo nalalka tilmaamaha ee ballaadhan waxay xasuusiyaan glacier dabiici ah, waxayna soo jiidayaan fikradaha nadaafadda iyo xasilloonida. Bogga hore waxaa ku yaal joogto gacan oo weyn oo leh badhamada hilibka, khudradda iyo miraha, taasoo suurtogelinaysa in cuntadu la geliyo gudaha oo hal taabasho ay ku bilaabmaan nadiifinta.

Unique Properties
Glacier is a kitchen food cleaner that effectively removes pesticide residuals, heavy metal, fertilizer and bacteria. The design purpose of Glacier is to express extraordinary cleanliness and high quality life attitude. The machine utilizes abstract polygons and large scale instruction lights to build a picture of natural glacier that embodies purity and steadiness. Usage of large area of transparent PC material brings rich layering and overall attractiveness to the machine body.
Dimensions & Packaging
Black or white body. Dimension: 305mm x 410mm x 285mm

Production Technology
Glacier applies ABS and PC injection modeling. It contains hydroxyl water ion generator that degrade harmful substances in food.
Design Challenge
Glacier needs to utilize minimalist shapes to convey a neat metaphor that represent its core function of cleaning, and thus exhibit an attitude for high quality life.
Research
The technology of degrading harmful substance on food has not been widely known or accepted by major population. Instead of educating potential users with academic terms and specification, Glacier relies more upon dedicated overall design to boost its first image and captivation.
Inspiration
From our observation, target users who care about food cleanliness are also prone to life quality pursuance. Thus we build the machine's main body with abstract iceberg polygons to metaphorize the cold, clean and clear glacier that represent extreme purity. Together with the rich layer design, We enable Glacier to touch user's subconsciousness for stainlessness and to visually facilitate user's imagination for quality life.
Project Duration
The project started in August 2020 in Beijing and finished in December 2020 in Shenzhen, China
Operation Flow
A large control panel is installed on front side of Glacier with bottoms indicating "meat", "fruits", "vegetables" and etc. User need only put food into the machine and touch the botton, then operate easily with instructions.
