How Do Coin Counters Work?

July 5, 2021 by Post

Coin counters are highly accurate machines that have the ability to quickly process coin currencies according to their diameter. They can cut time in half and remove the human effort of coin counting, saving you a lot of time. In general, they all tend to come with similar features that give you ease of use and convenience. You can learn more about how they work so you can understand how they can benefit financial management processes.

How Coin Counters and Sorters Work

Coin counters are great for sorting out money without the hassle of making errors. They help save time and don’t require recounting coins. Mixed coin counters have automatic sensors that can detect the unique shape of each coin.

Magnetic Detection

Some of these devices have a magnetic test that allows them to detect the difference between each coin. Each type of coin has a different magnetic quality to it because of the type of metal they are created with. When the machine exposes the coin to a magnetic field, the device can then sense the dimension of the coin and its value.

Sorting According to Size

Coins all come in separate currencies of pennies, dimes, nickels, and quarters. Each of them has a specific thickness, diameter, and weight. Their rotating discs allow coins to fall through the slots and be organized based on their size. Some coin counters have optical sensors that can identify coins with lasers. The ones with built-in scales are calibrated to weigh several types of coin currencies all at once. They are then sorted based on weight.

Organization of Coins

Coin counters typically have a hopper near the top where you place a batch of coins. The coins are placed in the hopper before it is processed into the coin counter. The hopper then sends the coins down to the container bins, where they are received and accurately sorted. Some coin counters have auto-wrappers which place the coins in plastic tubes before they are aligned and placed into wraps. Others simply have plastic tubes so you can wrap them yourself.

Accurate Counting

These machines are built with a digital display that shows the denomination of the coins counted. Even though the coin counters are incredibly fast, they are hardly inaccurate and come with features that allow them to run smoothly. They are built with anti-jamming technology that removes coins that are jammed away from the sorting mechanism. A jam detection circuit will identify when this is happening. The coin counter may temporarily stop during a jam to remove the stuck coin before continuing. This helps make the machine less error-prone and saves time, but also this activity prevents the machine from being destroyed in the process. Some coin counters have error codes that flash when any mistakes happen, though they are typically rare.

Learn More About the Mechanisms of Coin Counting

Not all coin counters are the same. They come in great variety and with different features that allow it to sort coins according to your financial needs. Some can count up to 3,000 or more coins at any given time, while others sort only 200 maximum. If you have a small to medium-sized business that takes cash regularly, you can learn more to help you choose the right one
