This machine has completely transformed our operations. It's incredibly fast and the counterfeit detection is spot-on. We've seen a significant reduction in discrepancies and our tellers can now focus on customer service instead of tedious counting. It's a game-changer for our banking operations in Nairobi."

๐ก How It Works
Operating the Avansa MaxCount 2800 is straightforward. Simply place a stack of banknotes into the hopper. The machine automatically draws in and counts the notes at high speed, simultaneously scanning for counterfeit currency using its integrated UV, MG, and IR detection systems. You can utilise functions like batching (counting a specific number of notes), adding (cumulating counts), or value counting for mixed denominations, all displayed clearly on the intuitive interface. When a suspected counterfeit note is detected, the machine stops, alerts the operator, and identifies the suspicious note for removal.
