Max. counting speed

The highest speed that device is able to count bills (coins in the relevant models, see "Product Type"). Higher speed saves time, but it also affects the price and sometimes the size of the device respectively. Its useful to note that using additional functions (for example, sorting by face), as well as in some other cases (such as dilapidated bills), the actual counting speed may slightly decrease compared to the claimed one.

As for specific figures, speeds up to 1000 bills per minute are considered relatively low, but they are often quite enough in cases where large amounts are recalculated sporadically and high speed rate is not needed. In most counters (of all types), this indicator lies in the range from 1000 to 2000 bills per minute, and higher values found only in certain models of coin counters.

Load Tray capacity

The maximum amount of bills or coins that can fit in the pocket (tray) of the counter; in other words — the largest amount of monetary units that can be counted per one run without reloading (and when reloading money, it is worth considering the capacity of the receiving tray — see below)

Note that this parameter is quite approximate — bills can have different thickness, and furthermore, coins are usually arranged randomly. However, it is still undesirable to exceed the recommendations for capacity in order to avoid overloading the gears.

Pocket capacity of rejected bills

The capacity of the pocket for rejected bills provided in the design of the counter. To be more precise, only bills sorters have this feature (see "Product Type"): it is not found in regular counters (both bills and coins).

The pocket for rejected money is a separate compartment, which receive discarded bills are received: counterfeit, heavily worn, dirty, etc. This compartment is considered as a separate function and is not counted of total number of receiving pockets (see “Number of receiving pockets). As for its capacity, it is usually rather small compared to the capacity of the loading and receiving pocket: after all, usually rejected bills make up a very small part of the total stack.

Min. bills size

The smallest bills size that the counter can normally process. Specified by length and width, both of these parameters must be at least the minimum allowable value — otherwise the device will not be able to count properly.

Note that most modern currencies use denominations of more or less standard sizes; and with such popular currencies as the dollar or the euro, any counter is almost guaranteed to be compatible. In addition, the manufacturers of counting machines usually take into account the region where they plan to use them, and the dimensions of local money. So you have to pay attention to the allowable sizes of bills mainly in cases where the counter is planned to be used for less common currencies, the size of which may differ markedly from the average.

Sorting

Types of bills sorting provided in the device. Sorting itself is found both in specialized note and in coin counters (see "Product Type"). This paragraph is describing the criteria of sorting types which can be processed. However, in devices for coins, only one criterion is used — by denomination ; so basically this list is relevant for paper money sorters. In such models, in addition, sorting by face, by orientation, by dilapidation and by date of issue can also occur. Here are the features of each of these options:

— By face. Sorting type that allows you to lay out all the bills face up. With this procedure, bills are divided into two trays, depending on which side they are up; after that, it is enough to take one of the stacks and turn it over as necessary. It should be noted that this function is most often combined with sorting by orientation (see below) — these types of sorting allow you to bring all bills exactly in one position, which is important, for example, before loading into an ATM.

— By orientation. Sorting that allows you to separate bills lying "upside down". Such bills are sent to a separate pocket, after the end of the procedure, it is enough to remove there the entire pack and turn it to the desired orientation. This feature is often combined with the sort by face d...escribed above, but can be used separately and is generally much more common. This is due to the fact that ordering both by orientation and by face is required relatively rarely — mainly when loading into an ATM and in other similar types of machine money processing; and for convenience, when counting by a person, it is not necessary to place all the bills in exactly the same way — it is enough to deploy them in one orientation.

— By denomination. Sorting of recounted money by denomination. It should be reminded that this is the only type of sorting used not only for bills, but also for coins; specific capabilities of devices with this function may be different. So, the simplest option is to separate bills that do not correspond to some denomination, or that have a denomination more or less a certain value. This operating mode is found only in models for paper money. A more advanced way is sorting by several denominations at once — for example, 1, 5 and 10, or 5, 10 and “greater than 10”. The specific number of simultaneously available denomination options may be different, it can be determined by the number of receiving pockets (see above for more details, but here we recall that in general there are more such pockets in coin devices than in bills sorters).

— Fitness sorting. A feature that allows you to identify bills with obvious signs of dilapidation: old, worn, etc. One of the most popular ways to use this feature is to select money to fill ATMs: such bills should be as new as possible. In addition, sorting by dilapidation can be useful for general purposes — to detect bills of unsatisfactory quality and exchange them for new ones at an authorized banking institution.

— By date of issue. A rather specific feature that is rarely found — mainly in professional-level devices. This is due to the fact that sorting by year of issue is usually not needed in daily work with the cash register, it is used in some special tasks — for example, identifying old (or obsolete) bills for subsequent exchange for new ones.

Touchscreen

The availability of a touch screen in the counter — similar to those used in smartphones. Such a screen provides additional convenience in operating: it is more versatile and visual than traditional control panels with buttons and switches, it can display various control elements (buttons, lists, sliders, numeric keypad, etc.) and service data in the text or graphic form. At the same time, the touch screen is more expensive than usual; for comfortable use, the display should be quite large, which further affects the cost; and it makes sense to use such displays only with an abundance of additional settings — a device with relatively simple functionality is quite enough of traditional controls. Therefore, this feature is found mainly in professional-level counting machines, although occasionally there are exceptions.

Power consumption

The power consumed by the counter in regular operation mode. Usually, the regular mode means the counting process with all additional functions; in standby mode the power consumption is significantly less.

In most cases, this spec is relatively small — even high-end models rarely consume more than 400 watts. Therefore, this parameter has practical importance primarily in specific cases — for example, when calculating the load on a voltage stabilizer or an uninterruptible power supply.
