Industrial grade 4G router self-service coffee machine wireless networking solution

With the rapid development of the business, the emergence of the self-service coffee grinder, its convenient and affordable, plus the taste is not lost to the traditional coffee shop, is currently impacting the traditional Starbucks coffee shop model with a rapid market share. The application of self-service coffee machines is also becoming more and more extensive, such as city stations, hotels, airports, residential communities, entertainment public places, office buildings, shopping malls, schools and other places. The convenient service and management are gradually deepening into work life. However, in the course of use, there are often problems such as shortage of coffee beans and bad machines. At the same time, the management of the self-service coffee machine does not understand the fault condition and the processing affects the operation of the coffee machine, and other defects make the smart coffee machine. Networking and intelligence are already inevitable trends. At the same time, the management of automatic coffee machines has gradually become wireless management.

Through the Internet and wireless network platforms, Xiamen Caimao will remotely control the wireless networking of self-service coffee machines, and automatically query, feedback and automatic information processing of self-service coffee machine sales information, improve efficiency and save enterprise personnel management costs. Thereby improving service efficiency.

First, the system introduction

The system uses the industrial 4G router to provide wireless network transmission for the self-service coffee machine, and realizes the networking function of the self-service coffee machine and the different back-end platforms of the user. The system mainly replaces the front-end automatic coffee machine, the network transmission device and the cloud platform.

Second, the system constitutes

The self-service coffee machine business unit is composed of a self-service coffee machine terminal and a business management platform.

The communication application unit is composed of a self-service coffee machine-dedicated industrial 4G router, a cloud platform, a 4G SIM card, and a lower-level machine (a snack vending machine, a box vending machine, a self-service coffee machine).

The solution uses the carrier 3G/4G wireless network to connect and exchange data between the self-service vending machines and the management platform of the central server through the wireless router to realize remote management and monitoring. And through the VPN and VPDN, the data is transmitted securely. So that the central platform can timely and accurately grasp the fault situation, sales situation, and even video surveillance of each self-service vending machine.

The solution topology is as follows

Third, communication transmission function

1. Realize self-service coffee machine 3G/4G wireless networking, so that it has stable communication capabilities.

2. Real-time safe transmission of data such as material inventory and payment information of self-service coffee machine.

3, to achieve coffee machine switch, adjust the price of goods and other remote control operations.

4. Real-time remote monitoring of the running status of routers and coffee machines.

5, to achieve remote fault diagnosis, accurate alarms, remote repair of communication faults.


Products used: CM520 series wireless router

Fourth, product features

Full support for each operator's network standard, 3G/4G free choice

The system is flexible and convenient, and the platform capacity is large, which easily meets the system expansion.

The CM520 series of industrial grade 4G routers use industrial-grade 32-bit communication processors, software multi-level detection and hardware multiple protection mechanisms to improve device stability.

Secure data transmission is ensured by using IPSec VPN, L2TP, SSL VPN, and CA certificate.

Device remote management system is adopted to facilitate equipment management.

Fifth. System value

1. Industrial quality 4G routers ensure stable communication networks. Domestic industrial communication product manufacturing experience and electromagnetic optimization technology ensure that the wireless device 7*24h runs stably, effectively improving system stability and safety.

2. Enhance the ability of customers to operate on a large scale. The cloud platform supports terminal access, and remote operation and maintenance is easy to get, helping operators to upgrade their scale operations.

3. Shorten the project cycle: 4G routers support the current commercial network standard (Mobile Unicom 2G/3G/4G, Telecom 4G), no equipment selection troubles, and effectively shorten the project time.

4. Saving operation and maintenance costs: SIM card packages can be arbitrarily replaced during project operation, eliminating the need to replace wireless devices, helping operators to effectively reduce operating costs.

5. Get more profitable channels. Through the system's value-added service unit, the profitability of advertising, information services, APP distribution and other channels can be realized.
