User-friendly anti-theft vending systems<br />
for retail outlets<br />
Focus and drive<br />
The advantages<br />
For many years, <strong>HARTING</strong> has ranked as a lead-<br />
ing specialist in retail vending systems for tobacco<br />
products<br />
A unique combination of tradition and innovation de-<br />
livers maximum benefits to retailers and customers.<br />
<strong>HARTING</strong> Systems will continue to drive the devel-<br />
opment, production and sales of its <strong>SMOKYTHEK</strong><br />
systems.<br />
<strong>SMOKYTHEK</strong> vending machines are an indispens-<br />
able asset at the checkout desk.<br />
The <strong>SMOKYTHEK</strong> under-counter model is the logical<br />
enhancement to the popular countertop model next to<br />
the cash register.<br />
The depth, width and height dimensions of these new<br />
versions were selected for compatibility with checkout<br />
conveyor systems.<br />
The under-counter system is suitable for all standard<br />
checkout counters. It is installed under the conveyor<br />
belt and is firmly attached to the counter base.<br />
Similar to other <strong>SMOKYTHEK</strong> systems, tobacco<br />
products are delivered onto the checkout conveyor belt<br />
right next to the cashier.<br />
The under-counter model frees up space in the check-<br />
out area, and there is no need for a large frame with<br />
candy rack. The consumer experiences a lean and<br />
orderly checkout zone.<br />
The shelves at the checkout can be configured to handle<br />
candy, razor blades, batteries and other small items,<br />
and they can be adapted to individual stores needs.
The high level of customer acceptance and depend-<br />
able service in continuous operation underline<br />
<strong>SMOKYTHEK</strong>’s leadership position in the market.<br />
Colors can be matched to the store design.<br />
The number of package units (capacity) and the number<br />
of selections (variations/ products) varies depending<br />
on the model and configuration the customer chooses.<br />
<strong>SMOKYTHEK</strong><br />
The theft rate for high price-density items in the retail industry<br />
continues to rise and has now reached unacceptable levels. The list of<br />
items affected includes tobacco products, batteries, cosmetics and razor<br />
blades, and their placement in stores may even be at risk.<br />
The <strong>SMOKYTHEK</strong> offers excellent anti-theft protection in a retail store<br />
environment. Without taking up valuable sales space that can be used for<br />
impulse items, customers can operate the intuitive controls to place goods<br />
directly on the checkout conveyor. Sales personnel can use a hand terminal<br />
to block access to tobacco products by minors.<br />

The <strong>SMOKYTHEK</strong> under-counter version<br />
The new <strong>SMOKYTHEK</strong> under-counter version uses<br />
material handling technology that is similar to the<br />
s olution used on its “older brother”. The tobacco<br />
products are stored underneath the checkout con-<br />
veyor.<br />
The selection panel is mounted on the packet lift directly<br />
at the checkout counter.<br />
Once a customer presses the button for his or her favorite<br />
brand, the <strong>SMOKYTHEK</strong> under-counter version delivers<br />
the pack to the checkout conveyor right next to the cashier.<br />
In close cooperation with the checkout counter supplier we will match color and appearance, so that the customer<br />
perceives the counter as an attractive, uniform piece of furniture.<br />
The entire checkout area has a clear-cut, orderly appearance.<br />
Product features<br />
■ compact, modular component design<br />
■ flexible column configuration<br />
(cigarette packs, tobacco pouches)<br />
■ sheet metal column walls in the door<br />
■ columns in the machine can be pulled<br />
out to facilitate filling<br />
■ stronger lock, doors integrated to an even<br />
front and stainless steel piano hinges<br />
instead of conventional hinges increase<br />
protection against theft<br />
■ space is reserved for a card reader to<br />
protect minors<br />
■ software for locking the selection panel to<br />
protect minors is available
Innovations<br />
Pushbuttons with a familiar design facilitate selection by end customers.<br />
The dimensions of the selection panel were significantly reduced, and only the most important information was<br />
retained to save space in the compact checkout zone.<br />
Color codes indicate system status:<br />
■ red = <strong>SMOKYTHEK</strong> is locked<br />
■ yellow = <strong>SMOKYTHEK</strong> operation in progress<br />
■ green = <strong>SMOKYTHEK</strong> is unlocked<br />
The placeholder for the card reader is also located on the selection panel. An electronic<br />
solution will be available to meet expected legal tobacco sale requirements.<br />
The <strong>SMOKYTHEK</strong> under-counter version draws on cutting-edge hardware and software tech-<br />
nology. The hardware has serial and USB ports to provide connectivity to state-of-the-art com-<br />
ponents including touch screens, laptops, etc.<br />
More memory is available to hold statis-<br />
tical data. The system features simple,<br />
practical connectivity to the cash<br />
register. Sales data, barcodes and chute<br />
information can be read and analyzed.<br />

The selection unit<br />
Since the development of the under-counter version, a state-<br />
of-the-art, future-proof selection unit has been available on all<br />
<strong>SMOKYTHEK</strong> versions.<br />
Besides the familiar selection unit with pushbuttons, customers<br />
can also choose a touch screen option for product selection.<br />
When the unit is idle, advertising can be displayed on the PC-based<br />
monitor at the point of sale.<br />
■ Product selection buttons<br />
■ Pushbuttons with product emblem<br />
■ Touch screen selection available<br />
■ Additional advertising space at the POS

The left and right layout of the<br />
<strong>SMOKYTHEK</strong> under-counter ver-<br />
sion is available in all sizes.<br />
The <strong>SMOKYTHEK</strong> under-counter<br />
version is mounted under the check-<br />
out conveyor and fits the checkout<br />
counter.<br />

<strong>SMOKYTHEK</strong> under-counter ver-<br />
sion is mounted in, or up against<br />

Stereo – twice the benefits<br />
The familiar <strong>SMOKYTHEK</strong> SMT 30, SMT 60 and SMT 88 models are<br />
available in stereo versions.<br />
The <strong>SMOKYTHEK</strong> stereo version dispenses cigarettes on two sides.<br />
It is the ideal solution at tandem checkout desks and in small stores where a<br />
single <strong>SMOKYTHEK</strong> can service two separate checkout desks.<br />
On separate checkout desks, the cigarettes are delivered to the checkout<br />
conveyor on one side and to a basket on the other side. On tandem checkout<br />
desks, the cigarettes are placed on both checkout conveyors.<br />
Slides are provided to compensate for small gaps between the checkout<br />
conveyors.<br />
Advantages<br />
■ can be used at tandem and separate checkout counters<br />
■ cigarettes can be dispensed at two checkouts with only one<br />
<strong>SMOKYTHEK</strong><br />
■ only one stock of cigarettes is required<br />
■ significantly less capital is tied up<br />
■ new selection panel available for the SMT 88<br />

Low profile checkout zone with the <strong>SMOKYTHEK</strong><br />
The further development of the low-profile selection panel creates new, additional applications for the<br />
familiar <strong>SMOKYTHEK</strong>.<br />
The compact dimensions of the base counter save space at the checkout counter and create a more orderly work-<br />
space for checkout personnel.<br />
The selection panel used to be mounted on the candy rack, but it is now attached to the body of the <strong>SMOKYTHEK</strong><br />
SMT 88 base cabinet.<br />
The new base cabinet selection panel has only 84 buttons, which is less that the <strong>SMOKYTHEK</strong> SMT 88, but it<br />
can hold the same amount of packs (1,000).<br />
A matching candy rack is available to hold attractive impulse items at the POS.<br />
<strong>SMOKYTHEK</strong> 88 with selection<br />
panel on the base cabinet<br />
Advantages<br />
■ large product variety on a very low profile selection<br />
panel<br />
■ maximal height of 1.10 m in the checkout area<br />
■ can be used with all existing checkout counters<br />
■ order single or stereo version<br />
■ individual 1.30 – 1.40 m candy rack available for<br />
the <strong>SMOKYTHEK</strong><br />
■ matching side shelving available with the same<br />
height
The shelving system<br />
Customers can still have a comprehensive selection at hand of candy, razor blades,<br />
batteries and other small items in the checkout area. The <strong>HARTING</strong> shelving system adds<br />
the finishing touch to the presentation of impulse articles in this zone.<br />
The shelving system is mounted as an extension to the <strong>SMOKYTHEK</strong> at the checkout conveyor.<br />
The basic models are 1.30 m and 1.40 m high and 0.80 m wide.<br />
This maximum overall height provides the optimal solution for tomorrow’s checkout area.<br />
Customers can choose the number and depth of the shelves. The depth can be varied in 5 cm<br />
increments.<br />

There are a few shelves on the front next to the<br />
selection panel and more shelves on the back which<br />
can be used to display a wide variety of products.<br />
The new multi-purpose rack offers space for<br />
impulse items on both sides of the checkout.<br />
Hook rails mounted on the end provide space for<br />
displays and for hanging items.
