VNE, the Italy-based change machine manufacturer, will be displaying two key solutions on the stand of its American partner, Coin Mechanism, at next month’s G2E in Las Vegas.
Italy is the most important market in Europe for video lottery terminals and VNE has amassed great experience in change requirements for this market. The Queen Change machine is specifically designed for the VLT market. It has a PC platform, a thermal printer, one ticket and banknote acceptor and one Fujitsu banknote dispenser (five cassettes for five different denomination of notes for a total capacity of 2,500 banknotes).
Three coin hoppers ensure that there is ample capacity for paying out different coin denominations. All VNE change machines can be remotely monitored, so operators have 24/7 real-time information of the money in and out. Furthermore, remote servicing ensures long-term customer satisfaction and the cabinet is strong, solid and secure. The Queen Change can be fixed securely in place either on a wall (by using the Blindo from VNE) or in any position by Heavy from VNE.
VNE will also be presenting a brand new product especially designed for the American market. The Ticket Tender allows operators to simply and easily pay players with winning tickets. Operators have an electronic key to access the TT. VNE provides five levels of operator ID so individual levels of access can be programmed.
The upper console has an integrated display so that operators immediately see the amount to be paid out which they then confirm by pressing a further button. The buttons are arranged in a user-friendly way, thus combining security with speed of payout. This upper console can be removed from the TT body, so the operator can place it on a desk for even more user-friendliness. It is equipped with a Fujitsu F53 banknote dispensing system that consists of three separate note dispensing units. Therefore, three separate note denominations, each of 500 notes, are available for payout.
Lorenzo Verona, commercial director at VNE, commented: “We have ideal solutions for the American market. Queen Change is perfect for the VLT market and the new TT has been particularly created for the US market. Our partner Coin Mechanisms looks forward to greeting visitors at the forthcoming G2E in Las Vegas.”
