Monoblocks for vending and parcel machines
Home » Applications » Vending machines
Vending machines and refrigerated parcel lockers run 24/7, often outdoors. Ultra-compact AiCool cassette monoblocks fit into the lower sections of the units and allow immediate service intervention (hot-swap), minimising downtime.
Compact cassette construction
Vending machines leave little room for the refrigeration circuit. AiCool cassette monoblocks are exceptionally compact and fit neatly into the lower sections of the units, without reducing the machine's sales capacity.
The integrated slide-in system lets you fit and, if needed, replace the unit quickly at the operator's site, without shipping the whole machine to a service centre.
24/7 reliability and hot swap
Vending machines and parcel lockers run non-stop, so every minute of availability counts. A hot-swap design (quick module replacement on site) minimises downtime and stock losses, while continuous operation keeps products at a safe temperature.
Eco-friendly R290 refrigerant and energy-efficient components cut power costs, which matter a great deal to a machine network operator running 24/7.
