ITL to Exhibit Self-service Portfolio at Vend Expo 2020 in Russia
Amidst all the glum news of COVID-19, here is something to cheer about. Innovative Technology Ltd (ITL) is going to showcase its self-service portfolio at the Vend Expo’s 14th International Vending Technologies and Self-Service Systems Exhibition, which is scheduled to be held on 25–27 March at the Expocentre in Moscow.
“Vend Expo is an important event in the ITL calendar as it gives us an ideal platform for us to network with our customers in the region and get a real feel for the needs of this developing marketplace going forward. This new era of self-service is fast moving, technology-led and presents exciting opportunities for the future,” Georgiy Frolov, Business Development Manager of ITL, said.
“This year we will focus on highlighting the NV9 Spectral note validator which boasts fast note to note processing and can be mounted vertically making it ideal for vending applications. The NV9 Spectral is a more technologically advanced version of the well-established NV9 with the added benefit of Spectral Technology. State of the art sensors ensure the full note is scanned and verified along with stained note detection technology which guarantees the rejection of stolen banknotes,” Georgiy added.
Innovative Technology will also show how its age verification device (ICU) prevents access to age-restricted goods sold in vending machines. ICU automatically checks age and access is either approved or rejected, with changeable age limit settings.
“The BV50, a popular validator with Russian customers, will also be available on the stand for visitors to demo. This space saving bill validator fits easily into the standard vending plate. It has the option of up or down stacking and four cash box capacities making it ideal for vending machine applications. Come and see the ITL team on stand A302 to find out how our solutions can create efficiencies and improve cash validation security for your vending fleet,” Georgiy concluded.
