Executive Summary
An unmanned retail capsule beverage machine is a smart terminal that prepares drinks on demand using sealed capsules. By combining capsule preservation, automated brewing, mobile payment, and IoT management, these machines can operate 24/7 without staff, offering coffee, tea, milk tea, juice, and more.
1. How It Works
The workflow consists of four steps:
- Capsule recognition: The machine reads the capsule's QR code, RFID, or mechanical identifier.
- Automatic preparation: Water temperature, pressure, extraction time, and mixing are controlled automatically.
- On-site production: A fresh drink is ready in 30 seconds to 2 minutes.
- Payment and operations: Users pay by mobile scan; the backend monitors inventory, sales, and device status.
2. Key Advantages
