This is a supply stand that can supply bundles of paper sheets.

The bundles of paper sheets supplied to the supply table 1 are taken out one by one, the bundle band is cut and removed, and then sent to the stacking section 2.

The paper sheets accumulated in the stacking section 2 are taken out one by one by a take-out roller 3a and sent to the inspection section 3. In this inspection section 3, paper sheets are inspected for stacking, skewing, tearing, etc., and the paper sheets that have been inspected as stacked tickets, skewed tickets, torn tickets, etc. (bills that cannot be inspected) are passed through a gate 4 to a conveyance path. The tickets are photographed and collected in the uninspectable ticket collection box 6. on the other hand,
Uninspectable bills and paper sheets that have not been inspected are sent to the inspection section 7 without being sorted by the gate 4, and the inspection section 7 inspects them for bill type discrimination detection, fitness discrimination detection, etc.

Then, based on the inspection results, the counterfeit notes (notes recognized as neither genuine nor valid as a result of the inspection) are sent to the counterfeit note collection box 10 via the gate 8 and the accumulation device 9 to the foreign world (notes that are not genuine or valid as a result of the inspection). Tickets recognized as different types) are at Gates 8 and 1.
