The Autumn Coin-Op Show (ACOS) opens its doors on 19th – 20th October 2022 at ILEC Conference Centre, Earls Court, London. Leading cash handling and biometrics solutions provider, Innovative Technology (ITL), will be showcasing their latest innovations on stand 8.

Commenting on ITL’s involvement, Andy Bullock, Senior Business Development Manager said, “ACOS offers us an informal platform to see our customers, colleagues and partners from the amusement sector. Over the two days visitors and exhibitors can find the latest products from the industry’s key players ahead of the international shows. This year we will showcase our latest note recyclers and biometrics range and demo how these can benefit the industry.”

Andy commented, “We are excited to show the UK gaming and amusement industry our range of biometric solutions. With world leading accuracy, no recurring costs, no internet required and GDPR certified, our solutions make biometric technology available and affordable for all. Our range including MyCheckr, MyChecker ^Mini, ICU Lite and ICU Pro, offer anonymous age estimation and secure access control – ideal to help Operators with their social responsibility to prevent minors from accessing age restricted gaming machines and to exclude access to amusement and gaming venues when installed at entrances or restricted areas.”

Innovative also plan to display their compact, multi note recyclers. The NV22 Spectral (NV22S) and Spectral Payout offer the coin-op industry secure, mixed denomination recycling as well as large storage capabilities thereby eliminating coin starvation to keep machines operational.

Andy added, “Both recyclers are gaining significant traction in the amusement market. The units offer multi note payout to maximise cash efficiency and benefit from Spectral Technology giving exceptional protection against fraudulent and stained notes. When utilised in conjunction the Smart Coin System for bulk, mixed coin recycling, they can significantly reduce operational collection costs and machine downtime. Alongside these recyclers we will debut our new NV4000 Spectral to ACOS visitors. This advanced, high volume mixed note recycler has a large recycling capacity of up to 420 notes from 5 denominations ideal for change and redemption applications, meaning fewer refills and increased staff efficiencies with less staff intervention needed.”

Concluding Andy said, “ACOS is a relaxed networking event but at the same time very focused on the UK coin-op industry where manufacturers, operators & retailers can meet under one roof – we look forward to the 2022 show.”
