About Klix Advanta Varuautomat

Klix Advanta kombinerar ren design, ett modernt användargränssnitt med ett brett utbud av drycker och Lavazza i hjärtat! Advanta är designad för att omdefiniera varuautomatupplevelsen. Den ger form och uttryck åt teknologi och varumärkesvärden genom exceptionell smak och en balans mellan effektivitet och elegans. Den patenterade in cup-teknologin levererar drycker utan korskontaminering. Ingredienserna är förseglade i den innovativa ekokoppen. Tillverkad av hållbart framtaget papper och belagd med vattenbaserad barriär är den den första papperskoppen utan plastbeläggning.

Production Technology: The main cabinet is made from folded sheet metal, so the formal expression is concentrated on the front of the machine and towards the user. Here, the main surface creates a sensual volume, and the user interaction takes place in a clearly defined central island. The door is a hybrid construction with metal frame, large pressure formed panels, injection moulded inserts and a big touch interface. The Klix eco cup is at the core. It is the first paper cup without polyethylene lining.
Design Challenge: It is not easy to design a vending machine. Technical requirements and material choices have a huge impact on many design decisions.
Research: Development process through conceptual and formal research, 3D modelling, physical mock-ups, prototyping.
Inspiration: We set out to redefine and reshape the classic vending machine through a new approach and a premium taste experience. A new vision and a perfect balance of efficiency and elegance. Giving shape and expression to the innovative technology, sustainable paper cups and the values of the brand. Klix Advanta is the latest generation of our bestselling system and brings a modern user experience and contemporary design to the existing range. Klix Advanta is an expertly designed vending machine that sets new high standards for quality breaks from a multi-drink system.
Project Duration: The project was designed in Turin, Italy. The complete product development from initial concept to final product took about three years.
Operation Flow: From the factory floor to warehouses and office spaces - Klix Advanta offers a reliable and quick refreshing break every time. Supporting any location with a wide drinks range to suit every taste. The big touch interface and the dispenser are positioned in a way that makes it widely accessible. Advanta has also been designed with the operators needs in mind. They can easily restock all the drinks and change offerings to suit the needs of different workplaces quickly. The machine can be operated on free-vend and offers three different payment options: cashless, contactless, coin payment. All within a modern and attractively branded shape.
