Some money counters can reliably count stacks of mixed bills in addition to basic counting features. It also avoids counting problems from happening when a bill of incorrect denomination is accidentally inserted into the stack. Stacks of mixed bills can even be separated into single-denomination piles by some devices.
You would expect a super-fast note count from your chosen money counting machine during busy transaction times. The cash counting machine you choose must be capable of counting at least 1000 notes every minute. Other more expensive devices can count 100 bills in 4 seconds. It’s quite a performance.

You already know that money counter machines are 100% accurate, but what other features do they have to make them even more trustworthy? Well, one such feature is the double-note detection which is built into most machines.

This electronic type of double note detection works thanks to infrared sensors of the machine.
Types of Money Counting Machines
Money counters machines differ by counting speed, hopper capacity, size, weight, and features like counterfeit detection and mixed bill detection. Basic bill counters provide a total count of the notes placed in the hopper, whereas advanced models can detect bills of different denominations to give a total value. The more sophisticated cash machines can detect counterfeit bills using technologies like UV and magnetic sensors.
Banknote counters also differ based on the design for loading and counting bills into the unit. The two main designs include back-loading style and top-loading style. As the name suggests, the back-load design requires you to feed bills into the hopper from the back of the machine. In the case of the top-loading design, you have to feed cash into the hopper from the front of the unit.
