Counterfeit
detection is easy with Cummins currency processing!
Small or large, basic or highly-sophisticated, Cummins offers the widest range of counterfeit detection available in the industry
today.
Catch More Counterfeits
An ever-increasing number of counterfeit bills are becoming more advanced than their predecessors. These bills often include most of the same characteristics as real US currency, including watermarks, magnetic ink, color shifting ink, and security threads.
The Industry's Most Advanced Counterfeit Detection
Using cutting-edge sensors, Cummins JetScans catch many sophisticated counterfeit bills that other systems miss.
Six different modes of detection sensing – with varying levels of sophistication – are available to meet the specific needs of currency processors:
1.
Scan
Sensors -- Identifies the true value of clip cornered bills. Low quality counterfeits are also challenged as "no calls".
2.
Magnetic Sensing -- Basic magnetic sensing compares magnetic ink levels to different pre-set levels for each denomination. Thus, high value bills can be carefully screened while $1 or $5 settings can be low or off. Additional magnetic properties are monitored with more advanced sensors available in certain JetScan models.
3.
Fluorescence Sensing -- Tests each bill's paper and stops when a bill fluoresces differently than real currency.
4.
Enhanced Ultraviolet -- Ultraviolet (UV) sensing validates paper authenticity. Different degrees of UV detection are incorporated into certain JetScan models with higher counterfeit detection capabilities.
5.
Infrared Sensors -- The latest technology in combating counterfeits tests the printing quality of each bill.
6.
IQ™
Sensing Technology -- Advanced analytic software
combined with cutting edge sensors catches counterfeit
notes that other systems miss.
Tabletop 2-Pocket Sorter
Compact, low-cost two pocket models offer different levels of
counterfeit sensitivity and can include fitness sorting in the same unit, for maximum value and processing productivity.
Multi-Pocket
Sorters
Models ranging from 4-pocket vertical sorters to 8-pocket tabletop sorters to production-level currency sorters, are available with different sensor levels depending on your specific
counterfeit detecting needs.
