S-Series
Sorters
Accurate validation, sorting and batching of banknotes and coins

THE PROBLEM
Manual sorting slows cash processing
Processing cash by hand takes time and pulls staff away from other tasks. It’s easy for notes and coins to be miscounted, mixed between denominations or recorded incorrectly, leading to discrepancies that take time to resolve. The process can feel repetitive and pressured, especially at busy times, causing longer queues at point-of-sale and leaving room for counterfeit or damaged cash to go unnoticed. It also increases exposure to shrinkage through errors and theft.
THE SOLUTION
Automated cash sorting for accurate processing and compliance
The S-Series Sorters are designed to process, validate and sort banknotes and coins quickly and accurately. Using advanced sensors, image capture and multi detection technology, they sort denomination, currency and orientation, while automatically rejecting counterfeit, damaged or unfit notes or coins.
Cash is sorted and batched as it is processed, reducing manual handling and improving accuracy across cash operations.
High-speed consistent sorting
The S-Series sorts banknotes and coins at high speeds, supporting medium to large cash volumes. Banknotes can be processed at up to 1,200 notes per minute, with coins sorted at up to 950 coins per minute. Cash is validated during processing to identify different currencies, detect counterfeits and assess fitness for recirculation or rejection.
Multi-pocket configurations allow sorting by denomination, fitness and orientation in a single pass, reducing handling and improving throughput.
Accurate validation and control
Advanced sensors and detection technology validate notes and coins during processing, identifying counterfeit, damaged or foreign items. Selected models support serial number recognition and image capture, providing additional verification and supporting audit trails.
Transaction logs and audit trails support compliance requirements for cash-in-transit (CIT), cash centres and central banks, enabling secure handling and faster collection and delivery.
Pre-set configurations automate batching, dispensing and denomination sorting, while accurate totals and reporting provide clear records for reconciliation and day-to-day cash management.
Flexible, high-volume operation
The S-Series is designed for use across retail back offices, banking, foreign exchange, casinos, CIT operations, cash centres and central banks. Systems support high-volume processing with secure handling and compliance requirements.
Machines can be configured for multiple currencies, with modular designs and pocket configurations that adapt to different operational needs and volumes.
