Advanced Autotune Calibration Algorithm
Original Necta photocells have a fixed sensitivity threshold — set once in the factory and never changed. In real-world use, this quickly becomes a problem:
- transmitter diodes weaken over time (burn out) → the infrared beam becomes too weak (the most common failure in the left/transmitter photocell)
- dust, dirt, and spilled liquids in the dispenser area interfere with the reading
- strong daylight (which also contains infrared) “blinds” the sensor
Result? The photocell system disables itself and you lose control over correct product dispensing.
We went one step further.
Instead of a rigid threshold, we developed the Advanced Autotune Calibration algorithm. The photocell automatically calibrates itself to current conditions — it measures the actual beam strength, compensates for diode wear and contamination. Thanks to this:
- it works reliably even with a heavily worn transmitter (left) photocell
- it flawlessly detects small items (e.g. candy, small chocolate bar)
- it eliminates randomness — every sale is reliable, no false refunds
How to spot a cheap replacement and avoid getting ripped off
We tested most aftermarket replacements available on the market. Almost all have serious design flaws:
- no protective coating → they start corroding after the first spilled cola in the delivery bin
- much slower barrier scanning (original: 160 µs; cheap copies: often 1–2 ms and more)
- random detection of small products → customer gets the item + money back
Classic symptom of a poor replacement
You vend a small item → sometimes it works fine, sometimes the machine doesn’t see the falling product and refunds the money. This is not a fault — it’s simply poor design that can’t keep up.
Our right photocell scans at exactly the same speed as the original Necta — 16 line pairs in 160 µs. A falling coin? Always detected.
