Characteristics of DOBOT Robotic Coffee Machine
The Dobot Robotic Coffee Machine is a fully automated coffee machine featuring a six-axis collaborative robot. It brews high-quality fragrant coffee in just 45 seconds without requiring manual supervision. Capable of operating 24/7, it tackles challenges like high labor costs, limited prime store space, and inconsistent quality found in traditional coffee shops. It offers a new business paradigm for the development of retail automation.
Saving Space
The entire coffee machine occupies less than 2.5 ㎡, making it suitable for placement in various crowded locations. This saves on rental costs and allows for flexible mobility.
Quick Production
Using collaborative robots, which make coffee with precise and fast movements, it is possible to brew a fresh cup of coffee in as little as 45 seconds—30% faster than a typical barista.
Customized Options
It offers customized options such as hot/cold drinks, sugary/unsweetened drinks, and more than 20 types of coffee and other beverages to choose from, meeting the diverse needs of consumers.
Cost Reduction
With 24-hour operation and no need for manual supervision, the coffee machine significantly reduces labor costs. It consumes only 5 kW of power, substantially lower than the traditional coffee shop's 60-150 kW. This not only makes it environmentally friendly but also helps in effectively reducing overall operating costs.

Precautions
-
Once the machine is delivered to the customer's location, the system must integrate with the customer's corporate or private account to facilitate the transfer of revenue to the customer's account.
-
The machine's operation backend and mini-programs require daily maintenance. The machine comes pre-installed with a 4G data card, which incurs 4G data fees and platform management fees. Therefore, a fixed 1% fee will be deducted from each transaction (not less than RMB 0.1 per order). The prices of different coffee flavors are set by the merchants themselves.
-
The current mini-programs for consumers and operators are standard versions. If clients require a customized consumer mini-program, the fee is RMB 30,000. The same fee applies for a customized operation-oriented mini-program.
-
If clients need to reorder cups or lids after depleting their stock, particularly since the lids are customized for robotic placement, they can contact our supply chain team for bulk purchases. The specifications for both cold and hot coffee cups are 10 ounces. In theory, you can source your own supply chain, but it is advisable to test them first (considering factors such as cup stability).
-
Pay special attention to the size of the coffee machine to avoid issues such as the equipment being unable to fit through the customer's door or cargo elevator due to insufficient prior communication.
