Frequently Asked Questions
How accurate are currency counting scales?
How accurate are currency counting scales?
Professional currency counting scales, such as those from Cassida, typically provide accuracy within 0.5% when used with sorted bills of the same denomination. Accuracy depends on the scale's resolution, proper calibration, and the use of bills that are in similar condition. For best results, remove excessively worn, torn, or folded bills before weighing, as significant variations in weight can affect the count's accuracy.
Can counting scales detect different denominations mixed?
Can counting scales detect different denominations mixed?
No, currency counting scales cannot identify or separate mixed denominations. Bills must be pre-sorted by denomination before counting. The scale calculates the quantity based on the weight you specify per bill. Counting mixed denominations would yield inaccurate results because bills differ slightly in weight.
What's the maximum capacity for currency counting scales?
What's the maximum capacity for currency counting scales?
Capacity varies by model, but most professional currency counting scales can weigh stacks containing 200-1,000 bills, depending on the platform size and maximum weight rating. Higher-capacity scales accommodate larger stacks, reducing the number of weighing cycles required for high-volume counting operations.
Do currency counting scales require regular calibration?
Do currency counting scales require regular calibration?
Quality counting scales maintain accuracy over time with minimal recalibration. However, periodic verification using known bill counts is recommended, especially in legal-for-trade applications. Some businesses calibrate monthly or quarterly, depending on usage volume and accuracy requirements. Cassida scales are factory-calibrated and designed to maintain precision throughout their operational life.
Can I use a regular scale to count?
Can I use a regular scale to count?
Regular scales lack the precision and features for reliable money counting. Professional scales offer denomination programming, higher resolution, and cash workflow interfaces, providing better accuracy and efficiency.
