Fresh Orange Juice Vending Machine

What it does

The machine holds whole oranges in a refrigerated drawer, and squeezes them only when somebody pays. Roughly four oranges go into every cup, the cup is sealed with film as it is dispensed, and the juicing head runs an automatic wash cycle between service intervals.

Because nothing is pre-made, there is no concentrate, no added sugar and no dilution — which is exactly why these machines do well in hospitals, corporate lobbies, gyms and premium retail, where a visible fresh-squeeze process is most of the sell.

The machines pictured here are ours. We run a fleet of them ourselves under our own Squeeze Station brand, which means the advice you get on siting, fruit supply, cup costs, wash cycles and service intervals comes from operating these machines daily — not from a specification sheet.

Ordering options: One machine platform, ordered with your choice of exterior wrap, payment module and screen content.

Key features

• Squeeze-to-order extrusion headPresses whole fruit only after payment. Even pulp, full-bodied juice, nothing held in a tank.
• Three-layer refrigerated fruit storeChilled drawer with three feed channels working together, so fruit loads evenly and does not jam.
• Cup sealing filmSeals each cup as it dispenses. Cheaper per cup than lidded cups, and customers can carry several away at once.
• Automatic wash cycleThe juicing path rinses itself on a schedule, which is what keeps a fresh-juice machine viable in an unattended location.
• Drawer-based service accessRefrigeration and fruit loading are on pull-out drawers, so restocking and maintenance do not need a technician.
