Abstract
A system when coupled with a material inputting, material holding, and washing device is a fully automated robotized cooking system. Computer control what material is inputted in the Cooking Chambers, the correct time and degree of heat, required amount of rotation, placing the cooked item in the bowl, and washing the Cooking Chamber. The device have horizontal rotation, like a ferris wheel, that keep each Cooking Chambers horizontally until rotation is required. The Pivoter pivot the Cooking Chambers up or down at any position in the rotation. There can be up to 6 Cooking Chambers independently operating at the same time. This invention can cook up to six different food items at the same time twenty four hours a day.
