Standard’s Modular Series change machines were originally designed to for “simple function” coin dispensing. But don’t let that term fool you. These change machines excellent for coin and token dispense, and the technology allows for a variety of ‘plug & play’ options to help customize solutions to your specific business’ needs. For example, by adding the CPi (Mars) Talos series Bill Recyclers in place of the bill acceptors – you can effectively convert the change machine to a low-volume bill exchanger.

Recyclers are programmed and then loaded with $5 bills. Each recycler will hold 25-30 bills in the recycler “barrel.” When a customer inserts a $20 bill, the machine is programmed to dispense three $5 bills – that are dispensed from the bill acceptor opening one-at-a-time – while the coin hoppers dispense twenty quarters. The concept behind the recyclers in a change machine is that your customers using $5 bills to purchase quarters will replenish your recycler throughout the day. In combination with the four coin hoppers that will hold up to 12,800 Quarters ($3,200 total capacity), you have plenty of coin capacity in a front load solution.

Standard Change-Makers uses Modular Relay Control Boards to interface the recyclers as separate dispensers, and when one recycler has only a few bills left – the control board transfers the dispense function to the other recycler. When both recyclers are empty – we signal a “COINS ONLY WHEN LIT” indicator light on the front of the machine to let customers know they will not receive any bill change.
