CN Soft Serve
CN Soft Serve
Engineered with smart remote telemetry and dual independent cylinders to serve high footfall locations across Santiago, Valparaíso, and Concepción.
An in-depth perspective on why dual-hopper technology is reshaping the retail and food service sectors in the Southern Cone.
Chile possesses one of Latin America's most sophisticated and brand-driven consumer landscapes. Driven by a robust HoReCa (Hotel, Restaurant, and Café) sector and a growing culture of unattended convenience retail, businesses in Santiago, Antofagasta, and Valparaíso demand high-efficiency, multi-flavor outputs. Standard single-hopper models limit operators to a single flavor profile, increasing risk in seasonal markets where consumer trends rotate rapidly.
Our Dual-Hopper Model Ice Cream Machines resolve this by introducing independent cylinder controls. This allows owners to serve classic soft serve bases (like vanilla and chocolate) simultaneously, or experiment with local favorites like *Mote con Huesillo* flavored bases alongside dairy-free alternatives. This flexibility is vital in urban centers where premium, lactose-free, or vegan offerings are capturing high margins.
Globally, the soft-serve market is rapidly shifting toward automated vending systems. In North America and Europe, operators are moving away from manual counters to reduce labor overheads and enforce strict product sanitation. Our export statistics reflect this trend, with 26% of our annual production directed to North America and 20% to South America, with Chile acting as a primary regional hub.
In Chile specifically, high real estate costs in locations like the *Costanera Center* mean every square meter must be optimized for maximum return on investment (ROI). Dual-hopper vending units fit neatly into compact spaces while offering payment compatibility (such as Transbank, Webpay, and local POS systems), transforming passive pedestrian traffic into high-margin automated sales.
How our dual-hopper and refrigeration systems guarantee consistency in Chile's varied climate zones.
Unlike budget single-compressor systems that struggle under back-to-back dispensing cycles, our dual-hopper machinery features individual compressor cooling. This design assigns dedicated evaporators and freezing cylinders to each hopper. If one hopper is shut down for sanitization or maintenance, the other remains fully operational. Utilizing world-class refrigeration components (compatible with international certifications including CE, UL, PSE, and KC), these machines maintain ideal product consistency even during peak summer weeks in Santiago or the dry heat of northern mining regions.
The secret to a high-margin soft-serve operation lies in the "overrun" — the volume of air introduced into the liquid ice cream mix. Our machines feature integrated electronic gear pumps (swell pumps) that yield a consistent overrun of up to 40% to 60%. This results in a creamier texture, enhances taste perception, and significantly lowers product cost per serving. For Chilean operators using UHT liquid mixes or powdered concentrates, this translates to maximum profitability per bag.
11 years of engineering excellence backed by international standards to ensure worry-free customs clearance and operational safety in Chile.

High-ROI, self-service, and touchscreen-enabled configurations designed for modern retail environments throughout Chile.
Integrating seamlessly into the local banking and regulatory infrastructure to ensure rapid launch and compliant operation.
Chile's card payment landscape is heavily consolidated under Transbank and modern Webpay integrations. Unattended ice cream machines require responsive SDK connectivity to avoid purchase abandonment. Our software controllers feature open SDK protocols compatible with credit card terminal protocols (such as Nayax or local custom POS terminals), enabling quick, secure payments.
Track ingredient levels, sales metrics, and compressor temps across your entire fleet from an office in Santiago. Our systems support real-time 4G telemetry modules, sending automated refill alerts to field technicians to optimize routing and maximize uptime.
Chile uses a 220V/50Hz electrical system. All machines imported are factory-configured for this voltage standard, eliminating the need for expensive phase converters. Additionally, we integrate automatic voltage stabilizers to protect control boards from voltage fluctuations common in high-load industrial zones.
In Chile, compliance with local health regulations (SEREMI de Salud) is mandatory. Our food-contact components are manufactured from premium, food-safe 304 stainless steel. The integrated auto-pasteurization cycle heats remaining mix inside the cylinder to eliminate bacterial growth, minimizing manual wash frequencies and keeping operations fully compliant with health codes.
