How Commercial Money Counters Work

These clever machines use a combination of rollers, sensors and sophisticated software to make short work of cash counting. Banknotes are fed through a hopper system where high-precision sensors measure each note's dimensions, weight, and security features. Most models use UV, magnetic, and infrared detection to verify authenticity—spotting forgeries that might fool the human eye. As notes pass through, the counter tallies them at speeds ranging from 600-1500 notes per minute, with some premium models offering multi-currency support. Many units can also sort notes by denomination, orientation, or condition—making bank deposits and cash handling incredibly efficient!

Clean the sensors weekly with compressed air to prevent dust build-up and maintain accuracy. For mixed denominations, use value counting mode rather than piece counting.
