N&W Announces New ‘Entry Level’ Machines

N&W has announced the introduction of three new machines: Festival Classic, (food) Tango, (snacks) and Opera (drinks). The company says it can now offer operators  ‘entry level’ models that deliver the peerless performance expected of N&W machines, but at a lower cost. According to N&W, ‘the cost of upgrading to the new generation of efficient, environmentally friendly, ‘smart’ vending machines has just fallen.’

TANGO
Opera and Tango

Opera: Highlights

Necta have used a mixture of already well established technology along with new innovations from the Canto to create free-standing drinks machine, Opera.

As a low cost alternative to Canto, Opera delivers excellent performance and value for money, thanks to its application of innovative technology. It has a high capacity (up to 500 cups), despite its compact footprint, and it benefits from N&W’s patented FB Sigma brewing system and FREEMIX technology for instant drinks. Colour coded internal parts for ease of maintenance and operation, making Opera a welcome addition to the Necta family.

Tango: Highlights

Tango’s ‘simple and elegant’ aesthetics conform to Necta’s much admired design line. Tango has a new, intuitive end user interface, a numeric LED touch sensitive keypad and a large window also illuminated by LEDs, delivering with optimum product visibility.  There’s an outward opening delivery bin to complete an effortless purchasing process.

Tango completes N&W’s offer in the S&F spiral and free standing segments with this economical, entry-level model. Developed on the proven Samba platform, and available in all snack and combination models, Tango can be banked with Opera to provide an efficient, attractive and affordable refreshment solution.

Festival Classic: Highlights

Festival Classic is built to offer a wide selection of products, particularly fresh food, to a high standard – it is a smart solution for places needing to offer catering services 24/7. It’s less a vending machine, more an automatic canteen. The inherent flexibility of the machine’s configuration allows users to choose between snacks, drinks, fresh dishes, fruit and yoghurt and plated meals (up to 9 inches).

Its simple software menu makes engineering visits quicker and easier, there’s one selling price per drum. Festival Classic has Independent Drum Operation: the machine will continue to operate even if a drum has been damaged or removed for cleaning. It’s energy efficient, too with smart, economical LED lighting and an EVA  ‘A’ Energy Rating.

N&W MD Dave Ward told PV ‘with the introduction of our new, entry-level models, Festival Classic, Tango and Opera, we now have a complete product range, ready to maximise any vending opportunity. Now, it’s easier than ever before for operators to upgrade the vending park and you don’t have to fob off your end-users with a refurb!’
