Features

One of the most common threats to laundry quality is staff selecting the wrong wash cycle. UniMac addresses this issue with UniLinc Touch—one of the most intuitive and user-friendly control systems on the market—designed to virtually eliminate cycle selection errors.

  • Multilingual Interface – With support for 34 languages, UniLinc Touch ensures that all staff members, regardless of language proficiency, can operate machines correctly.

  • Clear, Code-Free Display – The system uses real words instead of error codes, removing ambiguity and reducing the likelihood of mistakes.

  • Streamlined Training – The intuitive interface simplifies employee training and functions like a virtual laundry manager, improving labor efficiency—especially helpful in high-turnover environments.

  • Unified Controls – The same control system is featured on both washer-extractors and tumble dryers, providing operational consistency.

  • Flexible and Future-Ready – Built to support evolving business needs, UniLinc Touch offers long-term adaptability.

  • Delayed Start Feature – Operators can schedule a 30-minute advanced start, giving facilities a productive head start on the day’s workload.

UniMac’s softmount washer-extractors are designed to simplify the installation process while saving on overall setup costs. With a freestanding design, these machines can be installed quickly, often with same-day operation, making them ideal for second-floor laundries or facilities without access to concrete foundations. Heavy-duty coil springs and strategically placed shock absorbers create a tuned suspension system that effectively handles out-of-balance loads, eliminating the need for special structural requirements.

The UY Series is engineered for maximum efficiency, helping facilities cut two major operational expenses: labor and utilities. Equipped with the Laundry Management System (LMS) powered by PROform Control, operators gain full control over machine settings and wash program updates. Features like location-based monitoring, maintenance alerts, and email notifications, accessible via wired or wireless connections, make it easier than ever to manage operations and boost productivity.

UniMac softmount washers are constructed with uncompromising quality to withstand the demands of commercial laundry environments. Durable stainless steel front, top, and side panels, along with reinforced side structures and a formed steel frame, ensure long-lasting durability. A modular bearing housing simplifies serviceability, while the inverter drive system enhances performance with higher torque, reduced noise, faster extraction speeds, lower energy consumption, and improved balance.
