IntelliVend® position detection controls are used for contact free dispensing of hot and cold beverages and ice.  Through the use of our Patented infrared technology, the control is able to detect the location of a container placed in a dispensing machine and accurately fill the container.  The control uses this advanced sensing technology to generate precise fills every time, regardless of container size or level of pre-fill. This no-touch dispense system is currently in production for use in the dispensing industry.

Contact us if you would like to adapt this revolutionary technology to your equipment. We can provide you with a video on CR-ROM that provides a complete functional demonstration of the technology.
