Carlstadt, NJ, April 14th 2020 - Recommendations from medical experts for how to interact with your surroundings continue to evolve amidst the constantly changing landscape of the Coronavirus crisis. Health officials in the US have asked everyone to wear masks when going out in public to reduce the spread of the disease as various studies estimate 18-33% of people carrying the virus are asymptomatic, meaning they can have the virus and spread it without ever knowing they had the virus. In an effort to provide medical facilities, manufacturing plants and other workplaces deemed essential with a safe way to access personal protection equipment (PPE) at work, Betson Enterprises, leading worldwide distributor of arcade, location-based amusement, and vending machine equipment, and AMS Vendors, a leading independent US vending machine manufacturer, announced the release of the AMS Touchless Medical machine.
The AMS Touchless Medical machine showcases a clean design without peripheral components such as bill validators, coin mechanisms or credit card readers, resulting in a truly touchless™ experience that requires no physical interaction with the machine, save for retrieving the medical and PPE equipment.
Instant telemetry, live VMS and cashless capabilities are built-in to ensure long restock cycles, few service calls, and reduced human interactions with the machine while providing operators the ability to stock high-priced medical equipment, manage pricing remotely, and communicate with consumers directly. The Touchless Medical machine can also have custom graphics applied to suit account branding needs.
The machine relies on Vagabond’s embedded vīv commerce platform for all purchases. By eliminating the need for additional components, the AMS Touchless Medical machine features space for a 6th selection coil, increasing the retail space of the machine by 20% without increasing footprint. Service calls are reduced by up to 90% because there are no peripheral components on the machine to break, which also eliminates touchpoints and human exposure to germs.
The AMS Touchless Medical machine is designed to meet the needs of employers and workers at workplaces deemed essential by providing a way for medical equipment and PPE to be purchased on-site while providing a cost-effective solution that eliminates almost all physical interactions with machines. This ensures workers are comfortable accessing what they need to stay safe and healthy while on the job.
