Maintenance-free linear guide for automatic medication dispenser

Medication dispenser for up to 800 boxes

This vending machine dispenses over-the-counter medicines even when all pharmacies are closed. Up to 800 boxes can be managed.
The user requests the medication via touchscreen, pays for it in cash or cashless and then receives it in the dispensing compartment.
The drylin® linear guide ensures that the packs actually end up there. These have the advantage that they do not require external lubrication and are therefore practically maintenance-free.
