Pollard Banknote’s Newest ITVMs

First showcased at the 2005 NASPL conference in Minneapolis, these 24-bin machines feature exciting innovations that combine to make this product especially intriguing for players and retailers alike.

Pollard Banknote’s latest generation of ITVMs makes it easier than ever to attract potential players. With one click of the information button accompanying each ticket type, players are shown ‘how to play’ directions, promotional sequences, and ticket odds – even before any purchase is made.

In addition to the integration of this unique informational element, Pollard Banknote’s newest ITVMs boast a retailer-friendly, Windows-style interface that makes inventory control and maintenance simpler than other ITVMs currently in the marketplace. When the machine is opened, its 17” LCD monitor becomes a control terminal that immediately displays critical instructions for retailers and/or technicians. And the onboard full-size keyboard, mouse, and thermal printer allow for easier inputting and assessment of data. In addition, the machine features online connectivity, so real-time scheduling, diagnostics, and reporting can instantly be shared with a lottery’s network.

With its technical enhancements, its sleek, engaging design, and an easy-to-use vending platform, Pollard Banknote’s latest machine elevates the industry standard and promises to be just the ticket for those lotteries contemplating entry into this exciting market, or for those looking to add to their existing lineup of ITVMs.

Flexible Vending Platform™ (FVP)

Pollard Banknote’s Flexible Vending Platform™ (FVP) is packed with innovations that have since become standard in the vending industry, including: solid steel and Lexan construction, Medeco locking systems, a market-proven Coinco bill acceptor, combination product display/ selection buttons, and advanced networking capabilities.

Additionally, the FVP offers several advantages over competing ITVM models:

· Our EZ-Load™ system was the first barcode-based ticket loading method in the ITVM industry. It’s easy to learn, simple to operate, and virtually error-proof.

· The FVP employs a ‘plug and play’ modular design for its major components designed to reduce machine downtime and minimize service costs. All major components can be removed quickly without needing special tools or advanced training.

· Our patent-pending, recently enhanced Floating Wedge™ bursting technology works with a wide variety of perforation styles, including those designed for over-the-counter sales and manual dispensers. There’s no need to make ticket perforations specifically for the FVP.

· The Floating Wedge™ is calibrated in our factory and uses less moving parts than competing ticket separation methods, promising reduced service costs.

· Every FVP is equipped with the Smart Vend Technology (SVT) self-diagnostics program. This valuable maintenance tool performs periodic tests of critical machine functions to ensure maximum uptime.
