Pizza-Making Vending Machines

The Let's Pizza Machine Creates Fresh Pies With the Push of a Button

— April 18, 2018 — Lifestyle
Freshly made pizza can seem like a time-consuming process, whether you're making it yourself or waiting for a delivery, but the Let's Pizza machine takes the waiting out of the equation. Developed by Italian inventor Claudio Torghele, the concept of a pizza dispensing machine came to him while traveling through the US and taking note of the various types of vending machines available. The idea of vending machines inspired Torghele to explore their uses in certain lifestyles and the inventor eventually landed on the idea of dispensing hot and fresh pizza through these convenience machines.

The Let's Pizza machine consolidates the entire pizza making process down to a few minutes and works simply through button inputs. The dough is made upon order, in 40 seconds, and the machine then shapes, applies sauce and toppings, and bakes it all in a single minute using a custom infrared oven. The Let's Pizza machine has already seen usage in Italia, with a few machines being set-up as trials in the United Kingdom and the United States.
