Bottle Return Machines Features

Automatic Weighing and Compression

After the user deposits a plastic bottle or aluminum can, the device collects data through scanning, counting, and weighing. The screen displays the weight, quantity, and corresponding price of the recyclables. A built-in electric compressor compresses the recyclables to reduce their volume.

Opening Methods

This device supports several opening methods, including card swiping, QR code scanning, facial recognition, button operation, and sensor activation.

Back-end Management

The accompanying intelligent operation and maintenance management platform enables 24/7 real-time monitoring of the equipment. Operators can view information such as equipment online status, operating location, fault alarms, waste type, waste weight, collection records, points cashback, and scheduled door-to-door collection orders.
