A bill counter with batch counting allows operators to program a desired number of notes and organize cash into predetermined quantities. This function is valuable when preparing money for tills, departments, customers or bank deposits. Users can select a batch number and allow the machine to stop automatically after reaching the programmed quantity. Other functions may include continuous counting, addition mode, automatic start and adjustable speed. Applications include supermarkets, banks, retail stores, cash offices, hotels and wholesalers. Batch counting reduces the repetitive task of manually separating notes into groups and can help employees prepare organized cash bundles more efficiently.
