PizzaForno's Storage, Cooking, and Delivery System Jump to section
PizzaForno redefines automated pizza vending by seamlessly integrating advanced refrigeration, intelligent inventory management, and precision baking. Each pizza is stored at an optimal 37°F (3°C), then cooked to perfection in our proprietary convection oven—ensuring a fresh, hot meal every time.
“There are so many great places for a PizzaForno machine thanks to our three different unit options. The ATM unit, at just 40 square feet, is perfect for integrating into an existing business. The indoor kiosk, measuring 42 square feet, is ideal for transit hubs, cafeterias, hospitals, and dorms. The outdoor unit, at 85 square feet, is virtually indestructible and can be placed almost anywhere outdoors. It can also be easily relocated with the help of a flatbed truck.” - Will Moyer, Co-Founder and President of PizzaForno
The PizzaForno Difference: Revolutionizing Automated Pizza Vending Jump to section
PizzaForno is transforming the automated pizza vending industry with an advanced storage, cooking, and delivery system. This unparalleled combination of technology ensures every pizza served is a perfect blend of flavor and convenience.
Ensuring Freshness: Optimal Storage Conditions Jump to section
At the core of PizzaForno’s system is a state-of-the-art refrigeration unit, maintained at 37°F (3°C) and capable of storing up to 70 pizzas. This ensures a wide variety of flavors are kept fresh and ready. Each pizza is tracked using a FIFO (First-In, First-Out) system based on its use-by date—up to 96 hours.
Efficient Inventory Management: Real-Time Stock Control Jump to section
Our inventory system uses cellular technology to monitor stock levels in real time, enabling seamless, efficient operations. It automatically tracks and rotates pizzas based on their use-by dates to ensure consistent quality. To reduce waste and maintain freshness, the system can be configured to automatically discount pizzas set to expire within 24 hours, while any that exceed their shelf life are removed from available inventory—ensuring customers always receive the freshest product possible.
Precision in Pizza Preparation: Automated Robotic Baking Jump to section
Precision is central to our system. When a customer makes a selection, a robotic plate activates to retrieve the chosen pizza from cold storage and move it to the pulsed-air convection oven, accurately positioning it for cooking. This ensures optimal heat distribution and consistent results.
Quality Assurance: Specialized Baking Mechanism Jump to section
PizzaForno’s specialized baking system carefully places the pizza, along with its box, into a high-efficiency pulsed-air convection oven. As the pizza enters the oven, the top of the box is lifted open while the bottom slides in. This advanced convection technology bakes each pizza in just 3 to 4 minutes, delivering perfectly cooked toppings and a crisp, flavorful crust with a consistently even bake every time.
Diverse Flavors: Customizable Baking Parameters Jump to section
PizzaForno machines are pre-configured with precise baking settings for each pizza variety. When a customer makes a selection, the system automatically adjusts the oven’s temperature and bake time to match the specific requirements of that recipe, ensuring optimal taste and consistency. After baking, the pizza is dispensed directly to the customer through the front slot beneath the ordering screen. This process ensures every customer receives a hot, freshly baked pizza with maximum convenience and satisfaction.
