Loading:
•
Remove bins, one at a time. Open each bin and move product to the top
of the bin. Place new product below the older product so that the older
product will be vended first.
•
Product should always be level inside the bins. Alternate product direction
when loading cone bins.
•
Wrapper seams must always face down.
•
Styrofoam spacers should be used to prevent small products from shifting
in the bins.
•
No product should have more than ½-inch of space from left to right and
from front to back within each bin.
General Considerations:
•
Fastcorp recommends that a bin plan-o-gram form be filled out and
attached to the inside of the machine. The product name, price and bin
number can also be written directly on each bin. We also recommend that
the machine is programmed to leave one product at the bottom of each
bin to make it easier for the route driver to match products with a location
inside the freezer when servicing the machine.
•
Keep a copy of each machine’s bin plan-o-gram on file as a reference and
as a backup if necessary.
•
Each bin can be used as a tall bin or a short bin depending on where it is
placed inside the freezer. Short bins are approximately half the height of a
tall bin and are located over the compressor. Cut a tall bin at the
perforation and it becomes a short bin.
•
Always load product from the bottom up so that the oldest product will be
vended first (FIFO: first in, first out).
•
The standard bin configuration will accommodate most novelty products.
Spacers and inserts are provided for products such as ice cream cones,
ice cream sandwiches, push ups, etc. Alternative bin shapes and sizes
are available to accommodate most products.
•
Always keep an extra set of bins on hand to be used in the event of a
meltdown. Bins can be removed and replaced quickly.
•
There should not be more than one half of an inch distance from left to
right and front to back between the product and the bin. Use smaller bins
or proper spacers to ensure consistent product retrieval.
•
Fastcorp recommends placing the best selling items at the center of the
freezer. This shortens the robot travel distance and will reduce vend cycle
time.
