Product Description
The Sammic AX-50 is a compact undercounter glasswasher designed for bar and food service environments where clean glassware needs to turn around quickly and consistently. It accepts a 500mm basket and sits neatly beneath a standard bar counter, making it a practical choice where space is limited but throughput expectations are steady throughout service.
In a working bar or café, the AX-50 is built to keep pace with the rhythm of a busy service without requiring constant attention from staff. The controls are icon-driven, which reduces the likelihood of operator error during a rush, and the panel carries IP65 humidity protection — a sensible specification given the wet, steamy conditions typical of an undercounter bar position. Multiple wash programmes allow operators to match cycle selection to the item being washed, which helps balance cleaning performance against cycle time as demand shifts across a service period.
From an operational standpoint, the key practical advantages are:
- Icon-based controls that are straightforward to learn and use under pressure
- Selectable wash cycles suited to different glassware types, supporting glass clarity
- IP65-rated control panel designed to withstand humid undercounter conditions
- Compact footprint that installs beneath a standard bar counter without modification
- Consistent wash results that support hygiene standards during busy service periods
Installation requires a cold water supply, a drain connection, and an appropriate electrical supply. A qualified installer should confirm that your existing services are compatible before fitting. Adequate clearance for ventilation and routine maintenance access should be factored in when positioning the unit. For very high-volume venues or sites running continuous service across multiple bar areas, a higher-capacity machine may be worth considering before committing to this model.
The AX-50 is well suited to independent bars, hotel bar areas, cafés, and smaller hospitality venues where a dependable, easy-to-operate glasswasher is needed without the footprint or outlay of a larger machine. It represents a practical mid-range choice for operators who need reliable daily performance from a compact unit.
If you are weighing this model against your service volume or want to talk through your installation setup before ordering, our team is glad to help you work it out.

Frequently Asked Questions
- The AX-50 performs well in independent bars, hotel bar areas, and café environments with steady, moderate throughput. For venues running continuous service across multiple areas or with consistently very high glass volumes, a higher-capacity machine is likely to be a more appropriate fit — it is worth discussing your expected throughput with us before deciding.
- The unit requires a cold water supply, a drain connection, and an appropriate electrical supply. A qualified installer should assess your existing services prior to fitting, and you should ensure there is adequate clearance beneath and around the unit for ventilation and routine maintenance access.
- The icon-based control panel is designed to be picked up quickly, which makes it practical in environments with high staff turnover or where operatives change across shifts. The IP65-rated panel also means the controls hold up well in the wet, steamy conditions common in bar undercounter positions.
