Title: Can my CVC-224 vend glass bottles?
Post by: NipRing on March 17, 2010, 06:34:57 pm
Any size? Right now its all cans but i though i saw somewhere (wish i could remember where!) reading that its the timing of the augers that would allow for bottle dispensing.  There a place by me that stocks Mexican Coke and Sprite in 8oz, 12oz, and 16oz bottles.
Thanks
Bill

Choicevends will vend both bottles and cans ( or both at the same time although different selections) it's all in how you set the augers, there usually a decal stuck on the inside of the loading door that shows how to set the timing marks that are stamped on the bottom of the timing gears that drive the augers, I used to own several CV's at one time & I'm sorry to say I don't have any documents to help you further.

that's my old posting, don't know where you got it, but without my setup document, it's useless...this is picture of the gear setup diagram on my old CV's inside door, towards the lower left side of the door...not a clear picture, but maybe someone in the peanut gallery will recognize it & chip in some more info or a better quality picture

Yeah, i dont know where I actually found that. When I first got the machine i scoured the web for info and i grabbed anything that looked important/related. Cant remember where i found that though.

I'm having a little trouble understanding it. I'd like to set one of the double helix columns for bottles. But i dont see "Double column" on that sheet.  :Oo:
