Accelerated Cooking Products

Accelerated Cooking Products: Our name reflects what we manufacture, but our impact goes further. ACP technology enables leading restaurants worldwide to deliver their signature quality in less time, streamline equipment needs, simplify operations through automation, reduce training, lower costs, and increase customer satisfaction and throughput.

Our solutions help drive the growing availability of high‑quality food across more locations than ever before. Behind that expansion is our commitment to equipment that supports consistent, efficient, and delicious results.

ACP’s heritage dates back to 1947, when Raytheon® introduced the first microwave oven, the Model 1161. In 1965, Raytheon acquired Amana Refrigeration, and two years later launched the first affordable microwave oven—the Amana Radarange®—marking a major milestone in modern foodservice technology.

ACP is 100% dedicated to the professional foodservice industry. We manufacture Amana® Commercial and Menumaster® Commercial microwave, steam, and specialty ovens, as well as XpressChef® high-speed, rapid-cook ovens. Our ovens have been ranked best-in-class for over twenty-five years, and are preferred in areas of performance, reliability, service, construction, ease-of-use, and safety.

ACP ovens are designed, engineered, fabricated, and assembled in the USA. We are the only US based manufacturer of both commercial high speed and microwave ovens. At our headquarters in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, we continue to expand our manufacturing footprint.

ACP is a member of Welbilt® – an Ali Group company – that provides the world’s top chefs, and premier chain operators or growing independents with industry-leading equipment and solutions. With availability in more than 100 countries, and an extensive global network of partners, Welbilt and its leading brands, are present around the world to provide excellence through innovation.
