A counting machine is a machine that uses high powered technology to count Bank Currency Notes and sometimes coins.
The first Bank Note Counting Machine was invented by Zhi Tian Sie, in 1958. Zhi, a Chinese Banker invented the Counting Machine, after entering into a competition which he finished at 3rd place.
Bank Note Counting Machines generally provide a total number of the currency notes deposited in it. In some cases, it also stacks the notes together in bunches for bundling and wrapping purposes.
How Counting Machines work
All counting machines have slots where currency notes are placed. When these notes are placed successfully, the Counting Machine works by using a fast repetitive motion to lift the Bank notes deposited in it.
Doing this pushes the Notes forward, and the light beam disruption sensor keeps a count of the number of times the disruption occurred. The total number of disruptions in turn yields the total number of notes counted.
Also, Counting Machines don’t just count Bank Notes; they also detect fake currency Notes using the ultraviolet and infrared detection mechanisms incorporated into most of the recently produced note counting machines.
