Description
The G-Snack EV8 Evolution Design Line combi machine is an insight to the future of vending systems... SandenVendo presents the vending machine sure to become the center of attention. An innovative concept, adding a further evolution to the popular G-Snack range. A spacious and brightly illuminated showcase enhances the product display and the overall machine aesthetics is based on the well known and loved Design Line styling. The EV8 Evolution snacks vending machine is the medium sized model in the range and suitable for merchandising snacks, drinks, food or retail products with an internal temperature range of 2 - 18°C. It also includes health switch control for perishable or temperature sensitive items. This vending machine is produced by SandenVendo who are a leading Japanese vending machine manufacturer.
The new G-Snack Evolution vending machine includes an elevator dispense system as standard and has a capacious motorised central delivery eyelet, providing an ergonomic, attractive and intelligent design. The central delivery port avoids the need for consumers to bend down to receive their items from the lower bin area as with most standard systems on the market.
The EV8 Evolution combi vending machine is supplied as standard from our website as a spiral only model using the unique and highly flexible SandenVendo clip and ratchet system. The EV8 also has modular dispense flexibility and can be upgraded and fitted with pusher and/or conveyor dispense systems at an additional cost. A mix of spiral, pusher and conveyor dispense systems can all be fitted to the same machine. This is a new and great feature for clients with more demanding product requirements, especially for retail applications where product flexibility and adjustability are key factors for consideration when selecting an automated retail hardware solution. These planogram configurations are more specialist, so please ask us for further information and a member of our team will be pleased to assist you. Once the planogram layout has been defined we can then provide you with a quotation and lead time.
The EV8 vending machine has been updated for 2022 to include the latest state-of-the-art hydrocarbon R290 environmentally friendly chiller unit. The non-toxic hydrocarbons are an eco-friendly alternative to the CFC/HCFC/HFC fluorocarbons which contribute to ozone damage.
Details
The G-Snack Evolution EV8 Evolution vending machines from SandenVendo are extremely capable and versatile. The Design Line styling also adds to aesthetics and includes a smoked polycarbonate control panel fascia. With an integral speedy elevator system this ensures products are delivered safely and reliably while also allowing fragile or delicate items to be stocked at any height. Pusher and conveyor dispense systems can also be included at an additional cost for more challenging product vending requirements.
An innovative capacitive keypad with back lit numerals provide high visibility in light and dark places. New user friendly features offer a large display in blue characters with a new easy door latching system. New software features of shelf detection and secure vending system make the vending machine complete.
Increasing reliability further, this snack vending machine is supplied as standard with optical sensors which are triggered when a product breaks an invisible beam. If the beam is not broken, the snack machine will try again; ensuring a successful vend. Pusher and conveyor dispense systems can also be included at an additional cost for more challenging product vending requirements.
The EV8 Evolution snack and food vending machine is the smallest model in the G-Snack range. As standard this machine is supplied with 6 shelves fitted. Each shelf includes 8 single motor selections providing a maximum total of 48 selections. For clients with smaller height products who require increased capacity, an additional shelf can be added to the machine to increase the maximum total of selections to 56. Motor selections can also be paired and dual driven to suit wider products.
As a snack only vending machine, the standard configuration is usually three rows of chocolate bars at the bottom and three rows of crisps or bagged sweets at the top. Alternatively, as a combination vending machine, the planogram is usually configured with one row (bottom) for 500ml PET bottles, one row (second shelf) for 330ml or 250ml cans, two rows for chocolate bars, and two rows (top two shelves) for crisps or bagged sweets. Customisable planograms can be also be provided and there is provision for non-food/drink related setups for retail products.
The temperature is controlled thermostatically, with a range of 2 - 18°C. The G-Snack also features a safety health control which prevents sales, should the machine remain above the allowed temperature for over 30 minutes.

Some clients prefer to finance their equipment via fixed term lease rental agreements rather than outright purchase.
Intelligent Vending offers finance via leading specialists in the UK. The finance companies we use provide a client tailored service and excellent rates for low risk and well established companies. Any rates and terms for the lease rental agreements are negotiated directly with the finance company in the strictest confidence and a number of possible funders are considered to ensure best possible rates. Both Intelligent Vending and the finance companies we use are governed by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA).
Unlike many suppliers in our industry, we have a policy where ‘our clients’ are offered first refusal for the title of the equipment at the end of their lease rental term. If the client wishes to obtain the title, a settlement value is agreed with the finance company and they are invoiced directly by them.
A point to remember with lease rental is that the finance agreement is only available for equipment elements. Any service/labour (i.e. such as maintenance contracts), branding and bespoke developments are excluded and these would be invoiced separately.
The below indicative figures should be used as a guide only to see how this works. They are based on a company that has been trading over 3 years and is deemed of low risk by the finance company.

Title Ownership
Our clients are offered first refusal to obtain ownership (i.e. title) of the equipment at the end of the lease term, providing that all terms and conditions have been met throughout the agreement.
The cost for acquiring title typically equates to circa one to two additional months payment based on total equipment value, although this varies and is subject to terms as levied by the specific finance provider used for the agreement.
* Leasing figures quoted are subject to status and assume that the applicant's business has been trading in excess of 3 years, is profitable and is deemed of low risk. Alternative quotations available on request - we will always endeavour to provide the best rates possible.
