i-Tank
The i-Tank insulated tank reduces the influence of external temperatures on the product inside the tank. This patented technology improves refrigeration efficiency and limits external condensation, helping to ensure a more stable and uniform product texture, and maintaining high performance and controlled consumption.
Optimal performance and reduced fuel consumption, even in the most extreme weather conditions.
n-UV LED Sanitization System
The n-UV LED sanitization system is an innovative lighting system that sanitizes the product in the tank, reducing the bacterial load that can proliferate on the inevitable residues that remain attached to the walls or deposited near the dispensing point.
-99,9%
Reduction of bacteria in 6 hours
Hybrid consistency management
Hybrid consistency management allows you to control the consistency of the product in the tank regardless of its fill level, and helps to keep preparations in optimal conditions for administration, while promoting energy savings.
Drinks with the perfect texture, always ready to serve
How our equipment is made
From prototype to verification tests, from testing to machine certification, every stage of product development is followed with the utmost attention in order to offer the market truly competitive products with impeccable technology and refined aesthetics.
stage1
Preliminary study, i.e., validation of the idea and feasibility analysis
stage2
Product development, i.e., technical design, performance testing, definition of testing procedures
stage3
Product industrialization, or optimization of production at scale
SPM Product design: the added value of technology
Product design is a crucial element of SPM equipment, which is carefully designed to meet the functional needs and aesthetic expectations of customers, ensuring quality and compliance.
In the quest for the perfect union between technology and style, certain principles inspire SPM designers and planners:
Problem
⏤Solution
given the challenge, respond effectively and pleasantly
User
⏤Market
the customer and the competitive landscape are the compass
Form
⏤Function
coexist in the ideal user experience
Innovation
⏤Ergonomics
Creativity at the service of usability and reliability
Competitive analysis. Do it better!
To receive project validation, our equipment passes through the climate chamber, where it undergoes specific tests to ensure performance under stress and energy consumption in extreme climatic conditions.
The tests focus primarily on validating the durability and performance of the electronic components and the refrigeration circuit, varying the temperature and humidity parameters of the insulated climatic chamber.
An example?
The I-Pro 2 slush machine produces slush with the perfect consistency in just over an hour and a half—half the time it would take the best competing machine at 38°C—saving an average of 20% in energy (kW/h).
