(pressebox) (Langen, 23.11.2015) Wanzl Metallwarenfabrik GmbH and maxcrc GmbH are happy to announce a new vending unit management solution ETISS NG, which synergizes top-quality hardware components with ETISS software that controls the hardware and automates all activities relating to vending units.

One vending unit, or thousands of them, distributed across one or more countries and working under control of a central server, are capable of automating and orchestrating many routine sale operations like trolley management in airports, restricting access with turnstiles in amusement parks, selling drinks and other goods in gyms and many more.

The vending unit is a sturdy stainless-steel case with various internal components like a modern computer, payment devices and business-specific external components like trolley rails and turnstiles. Customers can decide for individual configurations of each vending unit. Options like RFID reader, , bank note acceptors, coin acceptors or even credit card terminals can be incorporated .. An additional heater or a ventilation will grant operational functioning in various climate conditions. A printer for receipts, especially when credit cards are in place, or an illuminated topper for better recognizability can be added as well.

The vending unit software can be hosted on different platforms including Windows, Linux, OS X and Android. The display is touch sensitive, enabling the customers and service workers to use their fingers to interact with the system. The kiosk interface based on vector graphics always produces a picture of crystal-quality, regardless of the screen size.

The vending units are controlled through the ETISS server, to which you can connect with the ETISS client application in order to perform different tasks like configuring and monitoring the vending units, managing users, building reports, and many more. You can connect to any vending unit remotely and see the current information on the screen. Or you can remotely access the host operating system without breaking the operating mode of the vending unit. You can even be notified by an email or SMS message when some important event at a vending station occurs. In other words, you have complete control over the system.

Because vending units, the server and client applications are typically connected to each other via  Internet, encrypted communication comes off-the-shelf. The vending units themselves are behind the firewall with no open outgoing ports. Each vending unit and its payment components are physically well-protected against vandalism by the use of locks and sensors.  Thus, in ETISS NG, the security is taken as  highest priority.
