iCombi Pro.
The new gold standard.
That’s me. The new kid in town. I’m experienced. I plan ahead, I learn from you, I never forget anything, I pay attention, I adjust. Once I know the results you’re looking for, I adjust humidity, air speed and temperature automatically. In other words, I’m intelligent enough to dynamically react to your needs. Left the cooking cabinet door open too long? Steaks thicker than usual? Extra-large batch of French fries? I’ll adjust on my own, so that you’ll get the results you want. Over and over and over again. Extremely efficiently. After all, that’s the point of my intelligence. What do you get out of it? Unbelievable freedom. And the peace of mind that you’re going to reach your goals. Just the way you picture them.
Density Control
Efficiency re-imagined: Forget space-hogging appliances. Let the iCombi Pro handle all of that. Within less than 11 square feet of space. Meat, fish, poultry, vegetables, baked goods. À-la-carte, catering, delivery service, casual dining. Together, the intelligent assistants can really get a lot done. iDensityControl’s high-performance air circulation and dehumidification offers around 50% greater productivity and reduces cooking times by about 10%.* And delivers uniform results from one end of the tray to the other. Meanwhile, the intuitive control concept provides ideal user support and minimizes errors, so production keeps going and going and going.

The iCombi Pro’s iDensityControl system is all about climate management: the ways the sensors inside the cooking cabinet interact, the active dehumidification features, the air flow-optimizing cooking cabinet geometry. In short, everything that creates the perfect climate to give you exceptional productivity and exceptional results.
- Cooking Cabinet Thermocouples: The thermocouples detect current cooking cabinet conditions once every second, making sure that the necessary quantities of energy (the right combination of heat and moisture) are delivered optimally to the food. This creates a cooking cabinet climate tailor-made to your products, ensuring uniform quality and great taste - not to mention shorter cooking times.
- Dehumidification power: We’ve increased the diameter of our dehumidification ducts by up to 130% (depending on the model), making dehumidification even more efficient. Powerful vacuum technology draws moisture out of the cooking cabinet faster and more effectively, giving you crisp crusts, crunchy breading, and perfect grill marks - with absolute precision to keep the food from drying out.
- Cooking Cabinet Geometry: The new cooking cabinet geometry optimizes air flow so that energy is distributed uniformly from corner to corner, directing more energy into the food. The result? Greater uniformity, faster cooking times, perfect browning. In other words: good results. Over and over again. From the first rack to the last. On up to 45 breaded cutlets at once in an iCombi Pro 6 Half Size, in fact.
- Fresh Steam: 100% hygienic fresh steam, precise steam temperatures and maximum steam saturation for the best possible food quality - from 86° to 266°F, on full loads or small quantities, in any size appliance, whether it’s salmon, dim sum, or flan. Even delicate dishes won’t dry out. Even more practical: the steam generator is automatically descaled during the cleaning process.
- Fans: The cooking system adjusts fan speeds and direction of rotation intelligently to fit product types, conditions, and quantities. It yields an individual pattern of motion that intelligently modulates air, transporting energy wherever it’s needed. The fans can even rotate in opposing directions if needed - at speeds of up to 75 mph. The iCombi Pro now has additional fans, providing optimum heat distribution and uniform results, guaranteeing exceptional quality from corner to corner.
- Power Reserves: Now that’s power: hot air at temperatures of up to 575°F makes pizza crusts crisp and gives steaks mouthwatering grill marks. Even frozen convenience products like chicken nuggets and French fries turn out uniformly browned and tender-crisp - because even when you load large quantities of frozen food into the cooking cabinet, the iCombi Pro has enough reserve power to bring the cooking cabinet up to temperature in no time. Of course, the iCombi Pro is constructed of materials with plenty of “reserve power” as well: nothing wears out or warps, even with heavy use.
iCookingSuite
You have a goal. Pursue it relentlessly with the iCombi Pro’s cooking intelligence. Example: sometimes you need five steaks ready at once; other times, it’s a hundred. Either way, they all need to be the same quality. The iCombi Pro does it by continuously comparing the status of the products with the intended targets, calculating cooking progress and intelligently adjusting the temperature. Maybe your dinner guests have arrived early, and your grilled vegetables aren’t done yet? Just switch from single loads to mixed loads. The iCombi Pro will regulate its cooking parameters so that you can cook both at the same time. What if you change your mind about the results you want? No problem. Open up the cooking process and change the goal. The iCombi Pro will optimize temperatures and times accordingly. The results will speak for themselves. And you can repeat them perfectly every time, no matter who’s operating the cooking system.
Intelligent cooking to help you cross your personal finish line over and over. Simple, reliable, efficient.
The iCookingSuite is the iCombi Pro’s cooking intelligence. At the beginning of the cooking process, you indicate the results you want, such as browning or degree of doneness. Intelligent sensors detect the size of the food, the amount of food, and what condition it’s in. While the cooking path is in progress, the system regularly adjusts key parameters like cooking cabinet temperature, climate, air speed and cooking time, to make sure you get the results you’re looking for. If you need, you can intervene mid-process and change your target results. The controls are a breeze to operate, and you don't have to supervise the process. You’ll save time, energy, and raw materials while producing delicious food over and over again.
Operation Modes and preparation methods
Thanks to iCookingSuite, food production has never been easier: you’ll get the cooking results you want while working more productively than ever, because food is prepared as gently as possible. Just choose a food on the display, adjust parameters like browning (light to dark) and doneness (rare to well-done), and the iCombi Pro will get to work immediately. Meat, fish, poultry, baked goods, or sides. American, Japanese, Chinese, Indian, Brazilian, Mexican, Italian, or Greek. The iCombi Pro can do an unbelievable variety of dishes from around the world, at the touch of a button. And if you want to get your results even more quickly and easily, look no further than the iCookingSuite Navigator: You specify what you want to cook (hamburgers? roast chicken? oatmeal cookies?) and the correct cooking pathway starts right up. All you have to do is load the iCombi Pro. It’s that easy!If your goal is to use your iCombi Pro like a grill, a skillet, or a pizza oven, you can also select specific preparation methods. Want to grill steak? Choose “Grilling” as a preparation method and you’re ready to go. It’s super-easy, and you’ll get identical results every time, no matter who’s at the controls.
Intelligence that gets results
So many different dishes! How does the iCombi Pro do it? iCookingSuite plays a central role in this process as well: intelligent sensors within the cooking cabinet help the system detect the size and condition of the products, as well as the size of the load. The system’s cooking intelligence uses that data to determine the best route to the results you want; as cooking progresses, it automatically adjusts key parameters like temperature, cooking cabinet climate, fan speed, and cooking time. Second by second. And the Messenger notifies you of every adjustment, so you’ll always know what’s going on.
Another key milestone in cooking intelligence is detecting browning. Browning is based on the Maillard reaction, which is the name for the chemical reaction that causes browning and gives food its distinct taste, texture and color. The Maillard reaction typically occurs in roasting, baking, or grilling. In order to understand how browning develops, we had to analyze the Maillard reaction. RATIONAL spent years researching and decoding the formula for that reaction, and then translating it into an intelligent algorithm for the iCombi Pro. We call it the “cooking world formula.” That formula is how iCookingSuite intelligently keeps everything under control, making sure that you always get the results you want. Without wasting time or energy.
The New Flexibility
Thanks to its intelligence, the iCombi Pro is extraordinarily reliable and powerful -- and it’s also incredibly flexible. Need to change your target results? Add your own personal touch? Shorten your cooking time? Slide in some potatoes au gratin alongside your roast beef? You can do all of that and more now. Simply change your target browning level, or make your own adjustments to parameters like cooking cabinet temperature or humidity levels. Based on the cooking world formula parameters, the iCombi Pro will immediately make the necessary adjustments. So go ahead and brown your roast a little darker - the iCombi Pro will make sure it still has the right consistency.
MyDisplay With MyDisplay, the control panel only shows information that’s immediately relevant to the user. For example, if the restaurant produces chicken wings, breaded cutlets, and baked potatoes every day, you can have pictures of those three foods shown right on the control panel. Just tap the picture to start the iCombi Pro, and the system will notify you when you need to take action. You can also set MyDisplay up through ConnectedCooking, and then transmit your settings to all networked cooking systems - a particularly practical solution for customers with multiple locations.
iProductionManager
Life in the kitchen: a stressful, hectic rush to finish everything on time and at the same time. Whether you're using software or a pen and paper, it’s a logistical challenge. Well, it was. Because now the iCombi Pro can handle all of that with iProductionManager. Just add dishes onto the display and it will show you which of them can be cooked together. After that, all you have to do is specify whether you want to maximize speed or energy efficiency. The system monitors each tray separately, adjusting cooking times intelligently to the quantities and the results you want. You decide whether you want everything ready at once, or whether you’d prefer to start cooking everything at the same time. Either way, the iCombi Pro will tell you when to put each dish into the cooking cabinet - and voilà: Your food’s ready.
Save yourself logistical worries, streamline your production, and minimize your labour cost. Without sacrificing quality. Life in the kitchen of the future: calm, cool, and collected.
iCareSystem
Grilling a lot of food leaves a lot of stubborn residue, which keeps you from using the iCombi Pro to prepare other dishes. Or it would, if not for the iCareSystem. The ultra-fast interim cleaning feature gets everything ship-shape in 12 minutes or less, so you can move right on to the broccoli without worrying about unpleasant smells or flavour transfer. And at the end of the day, when you’re ready to do a full clean, the iCombi Pro will tell you whether it's slightly, moderately, or significantly dirty. You decide whether to clean in standard or eco mode. With Descaling. Overnight. With 50%* less chemicals. Phosphate free and always super clean The iCombi Pro will remember your preferences and display a corresponding program the next time around.
* compared to the previous model.
The iCareSystem saves water, time, and cleaning agents. And it really shines when it comes to hygiene, operating costs, and the environment.
