IMONEX COIN ACCEPTORS:
POINT/ COUNTERPOINT
POINT
Dear Star Techjournal:
About a year ago we purchased over one hundred
Imonex 950 coin acceptors. They were placed at
various locations with which we do business.
Coin jams can be a great problem in the coin op-
erated industry. Imonex seems to have almost com-
pletely eliminated this problem. The reason these
coin acceptors have virtually no coin jams is that
they will accept virtually anything!
A piece of paper cut to the approximate size of a
quarter with a penny glued or taped to it will be
processed every time, along with cardboard, or
tagboard. Anything thw approximate size of a quar-
ter that has a little weight to it and is not magnetic
will be processed.
Upon contacting Imonex of our troubles, we were
told that they had never heard of this problem six
months ago. When we called about two weeks ago
they still had not heard of this problem. They of-
fered no suggestions or solutions to our dilemma.
