Under the edge of e-commerce retail, traditional retail has lost its vigour and has begun to show some decline. According to relevant data, in the whole year of 2016, 46 companies closed 185 stores in department stores, shopping centers and hypermarkets, 56 stores were closed in department stores and shopping centers, and 129 stores were closed in hypermarkets.
At a time when traditional brick-and-mortar retail is dying and the e-commerce industry will also face the "ceiling effect", "new retail" with the concept of "Internet + retail" has begun to rise in recent years. Enterprises including Alibaba, JD.com, Nongfu Spring and other companies are all planning new retail, and they have integrated with the offline industry to fully open up online and offline, opening up a "new retail era".
Relying on "Internet + retail", vending machines have become a major role in the new retail scene. Thanks to vending machines, labor costs and expensive rents have been greatly saved. At the same time, relying on the efficiency and intelligence of Internet technology, it has become a key area of concern and intervention in various industries.
Since vending machines have become an important scene of "new retail" in the future, it will help make our shopping more convenient. So what kind of equipment is a vending machine?
A vending machine is generally composed of a coin device, an indicating device, and a storage and vending device. The coin device is the core of the vending machine, and its main function is to confirm the authenticity of the coins, sort the coins, and calculate the amount. If the amount invested reaches the value of the purchased item, a sell signal is sent and the remaining money is found. The indicating device is used to indicate the variety of the commodity selected by the customer. The storage and vending device stores the commodity, receives the selling instruction signal, and delivers the commodity selected by the customer to the delivery port.
It is not difficult to imagine that to implement the above series of control functions, it is necessary to rely on a powerful and reliable control system. The stability of the control system is to a large extent carried on the solid and reliable control hardware.
In view of the 24-hour continuous operation of the vending machine, it is obvious that ordinary control hardware with poor tolerance cannot guarantee the sturdy working state of the vending machine. Vending machines, nowadays more and more rely on more reliable industrial-grade embedded industrial computers to support the intelligent control system of vending machines
