WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN UV AND MAGNETIC?
Ultra Violet Light Detector: Ultraviolet light is used to detect the range of invisible radiation wavelengths shorter than violet in the invisible spectrum. Here is how it works: with advances in copier and laser printing technology, it has become easier than ever to create high-resolution replications of a wide range of currency. The UV detector works like X-Ray vision to zone in on questionable areas. Small particles of toner can be seen outside the standard image, indicating the bill is not valid currency. Machines with UV detection scan each piece of currency for these inconsistencies inside the machine – you won’t even see it going on – if a fake note is found, the information will automatically display on the window to notify the operator immediately. Magnetic sensors: Magnetic sensors run over each bill and are designed to search for certain components of banknotes that cannot be seen by the naked eye. Machines automatically detect and match the piece against the already-program
