How does modular, high performance banknote recycling support your self-service projects?
Modular banknote recyclers are designed to cover the complete cash cycle at the self-service point – validation, secure storage and payout. The JCM MRX uses drum-based recycling technology to deliver continuous, high speed operation while its modular architecture allows you to adapt capacity and denomination mix to the needs of each project. As demand grows or transaction patterns change, the system can be reconfigured instead of being replaced, which protects your investment and shortens rollout times.
Because recycled notes are immediately available as change, the overall amount of cash locked inside the terminal can be reduced and refill intervals can be extended. This leads to lower service costs, less manual intervention and a smoother user experience. Combined with detailed event logging and remote diagnostics, the MRX enables transparent, auditable and well controlled cash management.
Where is the JCM MRX banknote recycler typically used?
The JCM MRX modular high performance banknote recycler is built for high traffic self-service applications where fast, secure and continuous cash transactions are a must. Typical use cases include public transport ticket vending machines, railway and metro ticketing, parking payment terminals, retail self-checkout solutions and unattended payment points in hospitality or service environments.
The flexible mechanical concept and standard interfaces make it easy to integrate the MRX into a wide range of housings and controllers. Combined with other payment modules, printers and displays, it forms the core of reliable unattended payment solutions that deliver a consistent experience to end users.
What should you consider when selecting a banknote recycler? – Selection criteria
- Expected daily cash volume and peak transaction load – this defines recycler and cashbox capacity.
- Number and type of denominations to be supported – the modular design should match your local currency structure.
- Required availability – industrial grade design and proven components are key for 24/7 operation.
- Integration requirements – standard interfaces such as USB, RS232C and ID003 simplify controller development.
- Service and maintenance – plan for regular cleaning, wear-part replacement and firmware updates.
- Cash logistics – consider how multi-denomination recycling will help you optimise refills and collections.
- Security – from note authentication to mechanical protection of the cashbox, security must be part of the design.

FAQ – JCM MRX modular high performance banknote recycler
How does an industrial banknote recycler differ from a simple bill validator?
An industrial banknote recycler validates, stores and reuses notes as change instead of sending all of them to a deposit-only cashbox. This reduces the amount of cash that has to be kept in the terminal, extends refill intervals and improves overall cash efficiency. The robust mechanics, extended note capacity and enhanced sensors are tuned for demanding, continuous operation.
When does it make sense to use a modular banknote recycler?
A modular banknote recycler is the right choice in locations with significant daily cash volumes and where uptime is critical. Examples include public transport ticketing, parking payment, self-checkout solutions or unattended retail, where any downtime has a direct impact on revenue and customer satisfaction. In such environments the savings from recycling and reduced refill visits can quickly offset the initial investment.
How does multi-denomination recycling improve cash logistics?
By recycling several denominations, the system can dynamically balance the mix of notes held inside the terminal. Incoming notes are reused as payout wherever possible, which stabilises the float, reduces the need for manual corrections and offers more predictable cash planning. As a result, service visits are shorter and less frequent while end users benefit from consistent availability.
Can the JCM MRX be integrated into mixed payment environments?
Yes, the JCM MRX is designed to work alongside card, mobile and account based payment methods. Thanks to standard electrical and logical interfaces it can be connected to existing controllers or new platforms, while cash handling stays secure, traceable and independent from other payment instruments.
