NotaMaster Image New master-class image analysis in single note inspection “Every single banknote shipped has to be top quality. The NotaMaster Image supports quality inspection that meets precise standards – at a processing speed of 44 banknotes a second.” Classifying banknotes correctly: A new dimension in quality inspection Quality inspection in banknote printing operations has one goal: top-quality banknotes. These are the only ones that can be shipped to central banks. Giesecke & Devrient (G&D) ensures this level of quality by providing reliable single note inspection systems with intelligent sensors. G&D has continued to develop its sensors from one generation of products to the next since launching its first optical bank note inspection system (OBIS) in 1996. Today, G&D is ringing in the next era of this success story: the NotaMaster Image. This new product identifies printing flaws with more precision than ever before at a rate of 44 banknotes per second. The NotaMaster Image integrates seamlessly with the new BPS® X9 banknote inspection system and consists of two components: image sensor and a workstation. The sensor tracks the production process with an analysis system, while the workstation provides intuitive adaptation tools so users can analyze the causes of spoilage and easily adapt acceptance criteria. Banknote printers can consequently precisely validate the quality of their products against reference samples and specifications. They can therefore be sure to only reject bank notes that actually exceed the allowed tolerances. After all, there is no bigger waste than the destruction of acceptable banknotes. • Banknotes are high-tech products with designs and anti-counterfeiting features becoming more sophisticated over time. The precision of banknote specifications is growing with increasingly tight tolerance ranges. • With its high-quality color cameras and advanced image processing, the NotaMaster Image can precisely check any machine-readable optical feature used in a modern banknote design for compliance with specifications or limit samples. Banknote printers can credibly prove that their banknotes are consistently of a defined quality by means of high-performance single note inspection. The NotaMaster Image inspects banknotes like no other sensor The NotaMaster Image distills G&D’s leading expertise in sensor know-how into a specific product. It delivers unprecedented precision in banknote quality inspection and greater security for banknote printers than ever before. The NotaMaster Image inspects the substrate and the various printing processes such as offset, intaglio, silkscreen, and number printing. Additionally it checks the application of elements such as holograms as well as the cutting of the single notes against reference samples and specifications defined by the central banks. The advanced sensor technology allows for full-resolution banknote images – even at a globally unparalleled 44 bank notes per second. Exhausting every opportunity for optimization before they are out of the tolerance range? How can we optimize the next print job? The NotaMaster Image gives bank note printers invaluable feedback so they can fine-tune all relevant production parameters. It effectively supports a continuous improvement process Cost and quality are absolutely crucial for any printer or central bank manager. Is the banknote “on spec”? How much can inking, color tint and registration deviate from the reference • The powerful NotaMaster Image computer can capture, store, and analyze all image data. • The system reliably verifies all RGB and infrared features – watermarks, thread positions, and registration as well as printing processes such as offset, intaglio, silkscreen printing, and numbering. A broad interface between the sensor and the processing system allows transferring significantly more sensor data to the BPS X9 than ever before. As a result, users can pull up statistical information such as production quality trends and adjust production and inspection parameters accordingly to optimize yield and quality. in order to achieve maximum product quality with minimum spoilage. Some errors are inevitable. But they should be identified as soon as possible. That saves time, money, and reputation. Greater security for printers, greater convenience for operators Our service boosts your efficiency Once the system is installed, G&D experts would be happy to assist you in training your staff, performing maintenance, adding functions, installing upgrades, and carrying out overhauls many years down the line. The NotaMaster Image’s advanced, intuitive analysis and adaptation tools enable extremely precise system adjustment with considerably reduced effort. With a fine-tuned system, banknotes will only be shredded if they are actually defective. And the intelligent user interface also decreases the workload for the system operator. This saves time and effort. • Improved usability speeds up adaptation workflows. • Wizards guide users through clearly structured and defined workflows. • Selected parameters of the banknote specifications can be imported as XML files. G&D helps banknote printers and central banks to exhaust all the capabilities of the NotaMaster Image. Our product training courses and adaptation training courses for your operators ensure that your system runs flawlessly. In this way, our products and services contribute to top security and accuracy with regard to banknote quality inspection – at all levels and at all stations of the cash cycle.
