Are You Tired Of Counting Currency By Hand...
Combining automated features with user-friendly controls, SEMACON counters are so advanced in design, they're actually simple to use! It has never been easier to count money.
Precision Accuracy & Reliable Counting
SEMACON counters are engineered with fully automated, advanced screening capabilities to thoroughly detect errors
including double notes, chain notes, half notes, etc. Our counters always ensure the most accurate total counts and are designed to offer years of trouble free use.
Note Regarding Error Detection
Other less expensive counters you may find may not include error detection features. This means that you are not assured of an accurate count each time you use your counter. This defeats the purpose of having a high speed counter if it is not accurate!
All SEMACON counters "include" error detection as a standard feature.
This counter will dramatically speed up your repetitious counting duties and free up your time for other things.
SEMACON counters offer the flexibility of variable counting speeds as fast as 1,500 bank notes per minute and as slow as 600 notes per minute. With this wide range of operating speeds, our counters can efficiently and reliably process notes of all conditions, ranging from very worn to brand new. Additionally, the slow speeds enable the operator to inspect for "out of place" denominations.
This high speed currency counting system is designed for your small to large currency counting needs.
It features an auto start system, whereby once the bills are placed in the hopper, it begins to automatically start counting.

Semacon specializes in high speed
work hard to earn your business!
Not all currency counters are the same!
These specific detection features are what helps to insure that your counter is providing you with an accurate count!
Less expensive counters do not include this technology and can not offer the accuracy that is to be expected from a high speed counting device!
components or sensors is malfunctioning or needs cleaning.
(See the examples below of our opinions of both a poor counter and a very good one)
$250, $300 & $550+/- currency counters
that don't have error detection...
these are not very accurate counters!
Take a moment to read the following message so that you will have a better understanding of why some currency counters cost more and why certain counters should be
(Example A - Avoid this style counter if you are looking for a high degree of accuracy)
This type counter would not be considered a bank grade counter. Banks, grocery stores, theaters, and most businesses will not settle for the lack of accuracy that this counter can provide!
This style and type counter does not provide the accuracy most users would expect and demand from their currency counter.
This picture under Example A represents a sample counter sold under a few different names without error detection. Our experience with this counter has shown that it can provide a counting result of 97, 98, 99, 100, 101, 102 and even 103 bills as the total count when "100" bills were inserted into it to be counted.
Why have a high speed counter if you can not rely on and be confident in the accuracy of its counting ability?
(Example A - Avoid this style counter)
This type of roller friction feeding system is not accurate.
This counter's feed system does not have an agitator to help ruffle the bills as they are being feed through the counters so as to reduce the number of notes that are stuck together as they pass through the counter. Without the agitator, "the probability of the count being inaccurate is highly increased!"
Additionally, since this counter does not have computerized error detection circuitry to detect miscounts, it has no way of letting the operator know when a miscount has occurred!
Notes must be reversed fanned before being placed in this style machine, unlike in commercial grade counters where you just set a stack of bills down. If the bills are not fanned properly, the counter will more likely experience errors and it has no way of informing the operator that an error in the counting process has occurred.
Compare this counter to any of the major manufacturers and you will be able to easily confirm that this type counter is not offered by any of the solid manufacturers.
Our company has "never" seen this type of counter in any banks.
Bank Grade Counter used by banks that demand the utmost in accuracy!
(Example B - Excellent Counter)
[Same Feed System As The S-1400]
(Example B - Excellent Counter)
[Same Feed System As The S-1215]
This counter utilizes a traditional feed system used by the professional counting machine manufactures. It has both upper and lower feed roller components to ensure a more reliable note feeding system.
The agitator helps to prevent multiple notes from sticking together as the notes pass through the counter. This helps to provide a much more accurate count by reducing the number of double notes & chain notes so the counter can provide a much more accurate total count compared to other counters that do not have this feature.
Combine this with the sophisticated computerized error detection circuitry and technology, the Semacon counters deliver the utmost in accuracy, virtually eliminating the potential for errors by reducing the possibility of misfeeds along with catching misfeeds and reporting the potential errors to he operator. Counters such as on the left side (in Example A) that don't have error detection, are not capable of detecting errors and the operator has no way to know if the count they are being provided is accurate.
Error detection codes are displayed on the label at the top of the counter for easy visibility. No need to open the owner's manual to understand the codes. Sophistication combined with simplicity to provide you with one the most user friendly counters in the industry!
Counters with error detection can recognize when two bills are stuck together or when only part of a bill is passed through the counter as in a half note.
While the vendors of these "cheap" & low cost counters
(as in Example A) usually will not point this out,
when a counter does not have error detection,
the operator of it is subject to receiving inaccurate counts!!!
Most businesses and people that purchase a high speed currency counter do so to increase their efficiency, provide accurate counts, save time, along with breaking away from the monotony of the repetitious process of counting currency.
Not always receiving an accurate total count contradicts the purpose of having a high speed currency counter.
Hopefully this information will help you to make an educated decision when investing in a high speed currency counter.

"Selecting a Semacon S-1400 Currency Counter will assure you that you will get a true "Bank Grade" money counter with the highest accuracy and rock solid reliability that banks demand, and you will avoid making a crucial mistake by possibly selecting the wrong low end counter that could cause you nothing but headaches!"
If you'd like to own one of the most accurate high speed counting systems available today, one that will drastically reduce the amount of time you currently waste counting money and you want a counter that offers you the highest reliability (which will likely save you a substantial amount of money in the long run by avoiding repairs), then this letter contains important information that you definitely will want to read!
In our busy society, our time is scarce! We don't have enough time to complete the tasks we need to, we don't have enough family time, and we definitely don't have enough time to simply relax.
Three Reasons Why The Semacon S-1400 Is Your Best Choice
Now, after many months, this company finally lists the counter as a "quarter" only counter, as it should have been listed from the start...but the story doesn't end there!
This counter has a bagging attachment on the front of the counter but the factory that produced it simply forgot to produce a bag holding attachment. That's right, while it appears that you can attach a bag to the front of the counter, as virtually all coin counters of this style allow, this one has a bagging attachment but no bag holder!
You must take this into consideration before making an investment of your hard earned cash into one of these copy-cat imports.
Reason Three: Semacon offers a full parts and service faculty unlike some people that are simply importing low end equipment that changes from time to time whereas you may not be able to get parts or service years down the road.
Here is a summary of the benefits you receive
Bank grade counters are designed to offer the highest accuracy, the best reliability and durability that is expected & demanded from a counter being heavily used in one of the most demanding environments - in a bank! While some other sellers are peddling machines they claim are bank grade, most currency counters do not meet this high standard (we know...we offer a variety of models of banknote counters and we defiantly do not label our economy end, economy counters as bank grade like other companies are frequently doing).
This allows you the flexibility of choosing a slow speed such as 600 notes per minute (npm) when you wish to watch for out-or-place denominations or selecting the 1500 npm speed when you simply wish to get the counting task over with in record time with pinpoint counting accuracy! The 900 & 1200 npm speeds are handy for general counting, batching quantities of banknotes into fixed amounts per bundle, or counting heavily worn money. The flexibility of selecting your choice of counting speed is simply a push button choice away!
The dust shield reduces the amount of dirt, dust and contaminants that are blown towards the operators face by redirecting the air flow away from you face. Most banknote counters blow these contaminants directly at your face and many people experience itchy throats, a stuffed nose or other reactions from this flow of dirt being steadily blown at their face. Our Dust Shield is a major contributing factor towards making the Semacon S-1400 one of the healthiest money counters in the industry by virtually eliminating this direct air flow from blowing at your face!
This ensures that you receive the most accurate and exact count possible...the same accuracy that is absolutely demanded by the banking industry that will settle for nothing less than a virtually perfect, precise, counting system! Certain other machines don't have error detection and while some lower end counters do have this feature, many are lacking as the capabilities of their error detection systems are very limited. Image as your counter is counting the banknotes at a lightening fast 1500 notes per minute, the Semacon S-1400 counter is able to stop on a pinpoint when it suspects a half banknote, two banknotes stuck together or some other error that can cause a possible miscount. This is some very serious technology that enables the counter to accomplish this! Less expensive counters don't possess as sophisticated of an error detection system (and some don't even have error detection capabilities at all) that will often miss errors that a more sophisticated system catches resulting in a less than accurate total count. While no machine is perfect 100% of the time, a high end counter such as the Semacon S-1400 ensures the most accurate counts possible! Demand no less when selecting a counting system.
This makes it simply for you to select the batch stop point you desire for packaging & bundling of banknotes. You don't have to toggle through a bunch of preset choices that might not match the batch stop choice you desire, you simply type in your choice of batch stop setting on the 10 key numeric pad. It is now simple to select a stop point for the bundling of banknotes. Watch out, as many other counters don't have this feature!
Talking about simplicity, should the error detection pinpoint a potential error, there is no need to open your owner's manual to figure out what the error code means, simply look at the error code sticker (which acts as a cheat sheet, so to speak) which is proudly displayed on the front of the note stacker so all the error codes are within your sight without blinking an eye! How's that for convenience that is unmatched by other machines!
Now, you're probably wondering how and why we were able to combine all these advantages into our counter so that it stands so far above the capabilities of other machines.
We started selling money counters back in the early 1990's, around 1992, and later began producing the Semacon product line and have been producing this product line since 2000. We have a significant amount of experience in this industry, more than most of the competitors.
The end result is that you can now own one of the best counting systems available (insignificant of the price) at a bargain basement price. This counter will ultimately, substantially reduce the amount of time you spend counting money, at a price point you typically could not find this high grade of equipment at.
Other low cost machines can cost you much more in the long run, especially after your first repair! When selecting a machine, price is part of the picture, but not the whole story. We have heard time and time again from people that felt they were "Penny Wise But Pound Foolish" meaning, they bought a low price machine not realizing that they were sacrificing quality, reliability, accuracy and future servicing & parts availability simply because nobody told them different.
Our track record is astonishing!
I'd like to take a moment to express our great delight and satisfaction with our "handy-dandy" Semacon S-1400 Currency Counter. That little machine performs beautifully and has reduced our currency counting labor by about fifty percent (50%). We knew it would help, but did not expect it to help that much! The counter is lightweight, easy to carry, runs quietly, easy to clean, blends with the office decor, and requires minimal space. I appreciate the large easy-to-read numbers that can be read from 3 feet away and I can switch the various operation modes and counting speeds in about 2 seconds.
Bank tellers at the merchant window have been giving high praise for the accuracy of our deposit slips since we've been using the Semacon S-1400 Currency Counter! The higher level of accuracy has spared them and us from the wasted time and ordeal of tedious recounts to find errors, which have been virtually eliminated!
We are waiting for the availability of Semacon's new counterfeit detectors for our pay points. Please let us know when they are ready.
Thank you for making such a reliable and affordable equipment that has reduced our labor by many hundreds of hours per year!
P.S. The tendonitis in my wrist and elbow has cleared up completely in this first month that we have used the machine. No more of those ugly braces for this gal!
-Thanks to the Semacon S-1400.
After using using the counter I purchased from you for a little over a week, I could kick myself for not getting one sooner!
Anyone who is in business where they handle a lot of cash, or even just a little, should look into getting this counter. The settings allow me to do practically anything I want, and so quickly (time is money) I have time to do other things.
My fellow associates were on hand when I first used it and they were so impressed that they are now looking into purchasing one or two from you!
I told Steve what I needed in the way of a counter and also what my budget was. He was extremely professional and knowledgeable. Steve explained how their machines are made, how durable they are and also the all important warranty information.
When we got to pricing I could not believe the price!
It was hundreds of dollars cheaper than other counters and the unit I bought is also portable and came with various tubes to wrap all U.S. coins as well as Canadian coins. I can even bulk bag coins if desired and it can be used manually!
Please feel free to make this email public.
The coin counter you sent me is most excellent, and has saved me many hours of counting so far. It is a high quality machine, thanks again. I hope you and your business do well, I will definitely be going through you for any future counting equipment needs.
There is a lot of confusion surrounding our field. I want to give you 6 criteria & elements you absolutely, positively must make sure that apply to the counter you select:
2: Focus your selection process on only "NAME BRAND" machines, from a reputable company. Their are only a handful of Name Brand money counters and it would be in your best interest to focus the selection process on choosing from one of these reputable companies to protect your equipment investment and insure that you will be able to get service and support for your particular machine, years into the future. The various general importers offer one model today and a different brand/model tomorrow. This instability will effect you down the road when you need parts and/or servicing and it's not available. The NAME BRAND suppliers have much more stability in their product lines and will be able to better support you with parts, service and tech support for years into the future since they are concerned in protecting their brand's reputation. Also, no name brand companies import a particular machine until they find that they are having too many problems with it and then drop it like a hot potato!
You get at least Double your money's worth!
Furthermore, depending on your counting situation, the S-1400 currency counter can reduce the amount of time you devote to counting money by as much as 50-90% ! If you are spending a lot of time counting currency and are tired of the tedious process of counting the money by hand, the Semacon S-1400 counting system system can cut this time down to a tiny fraction compared to processing the banknotes by hand!
Have you ever asked yourself, "How much is my time worth?" What would you do with 2 or 3 extra hours per week, or 6-8 hours per week, or 1-2 extra days per week or a few extra days per month??? How much time you save depends on your actual counting situation but I can personally assure you that what ever amount of time you currently occupy counting money, the Semcon S-1400 counting system can drastically reduce it to a fraction of the time! What will you do with all your extra time?
In summary, here's what you get:
1) You will receive a "Brand New" Semacon S-1400 Currency Counting System, in it's factory sealed box.

You could end up spending a whole lot more than you expected!
Please read the following information which could Save You Money:
Many used coin counters and currency counters consist of old, out dated, & often obsolete equipment that has already been removed from working service by the previous user.
Additionally, the fact is, many of these counters are often discarded when a large company such as a bank, a Sears store, a JC Penny, a supermarket, or another "high use" location decides that they are tired of the unit needing repetitive servicing and not working properly. Many of these used counters have been in use for many years and now represent obsolete models!
You should also be aware that many of these resellers have no idea what condition their equipment is actually in.
Some of the tell tale signs that you should look for follows:
This one was tested and works Great.
Unfortunately, often the seller has only turned on the counter and it seemed to power up. The seller usually has not "properly" tested the counter under multiple conditions to confirm without a shadow-of-doubt that the counter is working properly and accurately!
This machine sorts pennies, nickels, dimes and quarters, and counts them according to denomination "or" this currency counter sorts the currency.
Formerly used by a casino. Has fold away carry handle, counterfeit detector, multi-denomination calculator, multi-mode/features. Tested & working.
In this case, the fact that it was formerly used by a casino should tell you the whole story...this counter was heavily used day in and day out for many years and is probably worn out. Why do you think the casino replaced it?
I have tried this out and it powers up and acts like it's ready to go. I have no paperwork so I don't know how to use.
Unit appears to be in very good condition. I have put money through all counts and machine worked with no problems.
Plug in lights up and grabs the bills, don't know much more on how to use one, comes with manual you get what's in picture (from a Surplus vendors).
They are easily cleaned with a small brush and alcohol. But ..... if you are going to use it very much, I would suggest that you replace the rubber inserts.
Avoid using alcohol to clean the rubber parts!!! Alcohol can often destroy the rubber and should be avoided. There are other chemicals available to clean the rubber components that won't risk damaging them. Watch out for the high cost to have it serviced!
This is a neat device, I can't make it count, but lights come on and it beeps.
It's a good bet that this counter needs to be fixed and could cost $250, $400, $500 or more to be serviced!
This is an older currency counter. I have been using it daily for the last 5 years. It works perfectly when it is clean. The rubber inserts in the wheels are getting old and a bit gummy. This makes them collect dirt faster than normal.
This was a quote from a seller that attempted to give a little more information than many sellers will disclose. This seller is being a little bit more detailed in disclosing the true condition of his counter. What he didn't tell you is that when the feed wheels are old and gummy, the counter needs to be serviced and this type of serve could cost "hundreds of dollars" to replace the feeding wheels and rubber components and after the parts are replaced, you still own a used and often outdated machine that other things can continue to break down, because of it's age. By the time you add up what you paid for it and the service costs, you could have bought a brand new counter from us, often at a lower price!!!
You should also be aware that parts are not always available for some of these older counters. We have seen used counters where the manufacturer is out of business or the counters are so old that you may have great difficulty getting them serviced!!!
These are just some of the misstatements or inaccurate & incomplete representations that are made by sellers of used equipment.
Why take a gamble with used equipment when we are offering highly discounted new equipment at like used pricing!!!
Some of the counters are for brands that are no longer in business. Many do not even include operating instructions.
Thanks for taking the time to read this.
We stand ready to serve your counting needs.
