JCM Global had a clear message at last week's G2E in Las Vegas - the company is famous for its bill validators, but it is about so much more than that.

Also being highlighted on the stand were the thermal printers of TransAct and touchscreen displays from 3M. “TransAct’s printers were recently chosen as the default unit by IGT, which is a major coup,” said senior vice president of operations Tom Nieman. “And the large format touchscreens are another premium product. These are useful products for operators because they can act as wayfinders in casinos.”

JCM was also exhibiting a bill validator for table games, the Trident. “We are essentially treating live table games in the same way as slot machines. It’s an idea that is going down very well. What it does is automate the drop process and the soft count process, thereby saving casinos considerable time and effort.”
