The Most Versatile Robotic Merchandising Technology Now Available For Non-Frozen Applications

Dec. 13, 2010 - PRLog -- Danbury, CT (December 13, 2010) – Fastcorp LLC announced that it is pursuing non-frozen business opportunities in and outside the vending industry, applying its highly-adaptable robotic merchandising technology. Fastcorp LLC was purchased in 2005 and has not competed outside the frozen category until now. Fastcorp currently produces the most reliable and energy efficient frozen vending technology in the world.

In past years, versions of the patented robotic system have been used to merchandise & dispense packaged goods of all shapes, sizes and weights. Some non-frozen applications included: oversized snack products (Frito-Lay), bulk or multi-pack goods, water/beverage, inventory & consumables (e.g. gloves, safety equipment, medicines etc), CDs & DVDs, retail cologne (Paco Rabanne), and even tennis shoes just to name a few.

The newly redesigned Evolution Vendor takes the flagship design to all new heights. According to Todd Piatnik, President of Fastcorp LLC, "the sky is the limit" when it comes to vending flexibility. The core technology implements a vacuum suction method for dispensing. However, since the robot is modular and different attachments can be incorporated, the ability to vend is limited only by the imagination.

Some of the advantages offered by the Evolution are: 1) Ultimate Versatility- ability to vend most anything that fits through the delivery door up to 5 lbs. without modification, 2) Reliability- uses very few moving parts, simplifying service & maintenance while increasing mechanical dependability, 3) Ease of Operation- intuitive, menu-driven programming, 4) Unique Merchandising- eye-catching, novel robotic entertainment captivates, making a statement for your brand and products, and 5) Pack Out Capacity- markedly fewer parts increases interior space allowing for one of the highest inventory capacities relative to foot print of any vendor. The Evolution is also compatible with all the standard currency and cashless payment options as well as remote monitoring technology available on the market.

Some cutting-edge brands are already at the forefront, leveraging Fastcorp for their specific non-frozen needs. In the area of coffee solutions, Fastcorp has developed a revolutionary new single brew coffee vendor which will be introduced in early 2011. With these and other initiatives in the pipeline, Fastcorp LLC is looking to expand its lead role outside of frozen and become the technology of choice for the broader universe of kiosk and automated self-service applications.
