5 Basic Operating Principles
The powered machine is normally in the stand-by mode. When a button is pressed, a vend cycle starts. If a sale
price is preset, before pressing the selection the required amount of money must be inserted by means of coins.
According to the selection required and to the version of the machine, the vend cycle is composed by some of the
following procedures.
5.1 Preparation of hot drinks from instant ingredients
This procedure is usually carried out after the cup is correctly positioned under the outlet pipes of the beverage.
More than one procedure of this sort can be carried out simultaneously or in sequence during a vend cycle.
This procedure is usually carried out after the cup is correctly positioned under the outlet pipes of the beverage.
More than one procedure of this sort can be carried out simultaneously or in sequence during a vend cycle.
1) One of the boiler pump is activated for a pre-set time to transfer the quantity of the required water into the correct
mixing bowl;
For “I” version
2) If present, the mixer motor is activated;
3) The geared motor activates the screw feeder, in the canister of the corresponding ingredient, which pours the
correct quantity of ingredient in the mixing bowl. More than one canister of ingredients can dispense
simultaneously for the same mixing bowl;
4) The boiler pump is switched off;
5) If present, the motor of the mixing bowl is switched off..
1) When the solenoid valve corresponding is activated, the preset quantity of water is poured to dissolve the
ingredients;
For “E” version
2) The water coming from the water refilling tank, in which the water level is kept constant, is conveyed under
pressure in the boiler by means of a pump;
3) If present, the mixer motor is activated;
4) The geared motor activates the screw feeder, in the canister of the corresponding ingredient, which pours the
correct quantity of ingredient in the mixing bowl. More than one canister of ingredients can be activated
simultaneously for the same mixing bowl;
5) If present, the motor of the mixing bowl is switched off.
5.2 Preparation of the Espresso coffee
This process is carried out in the models equipped with the espresso coffee group after the selection button
corresponding to coffee beans selections has been pressed. The execution priority between this process and the
process for the preparation from instant ingredients is preset by the programme of the machine and varies
according to the selection chosen.
1) The coffee grounds are ejected into the waste bucket (this procedure can be carried out also after 10 minutes
of inactivity of the coffee group);
2) The coffee group moves to the correct position to receive coffee dose;
3) The coffee grinder is activated for a time programmed by software;
4) The coffee group moves to the infusion position: this occurs when the coffee group motor is started. The cup
and the lower filter are moved upwards to close the brewer and press the compress of ground coffee;*
5) The water coming from the water-refilling tank, in which the water level is kept constant, is conveyed under
pressure in the boiler by means of a pump. After the activation of a solenoid valve, the same quantity of
warmed water is then conveyed to the coffee group;
6) The coffee group ends the cycle.
* Procedures marked by asterisk may be carried out in a different order according to the electronic setting of

The modification of throws is a delicate operation as the good operation of the machine can be affected. As a
general rule, it is recommended to keep in mind that when instant ingredients are dissolved in water, a brief interval
to rinse the mixing bowl must be foreseen at the end of the powdered ingredient vending. This is provided by
programming a dispensing time for water about 2 sec. longer than the dispensing time for the instant ingredients.
