We have been selling money counters, coin counters and counterfeit detectors for years now and have seen the demand increase. Due to this success we have decided to manufacture our own brand of money counters
& money handling equipment. These new line of counters carries the brand ABC and are available in several models. Because we manufacture the money counters ourselves, we can pass the production line savings on to you.

Two of the new products are bill counters, designed to quickly count bills in seconds. These models are the ABC1150 and ABC5500. Both models are available with counterfeit money detectors built inside. When a
counterfeit bill is detected, the machine alerts the user to the problem. Both these new money counters can be found here.
The third new addition is the ABC440 coin counter. This coin counter can take hands full of coins and quickly sorts them and gives you a total monetary and denominational total. Banks, retailers and other
organizations that handle money on a daily basis commonly use it. The ABC440 brings ABC Office’s total line of coin counters to six.

The last two new products that ABC Office manufactures are counterfeit money detectors. These models are the ABC-75 and the ABC-95. Both these units use UV light to detect security strips found in most U.S. bills. They also have magnetic sensors capable of detecting magnetic ink found in U.S. currency. A built-in light makes it possible to see watermarks as well. These new counterfeit detectors can be found here.

If you have been shopping for cameras, you may have noticed that most of them are now digital. They are easy to use and allow the user to select which pictures to take. Most modern-day digital cameras can store hundreds of pictures at one time, which is much higher than the capacity of traditional film-based cameras.

It is also less expensive to print the pictures you want rather than print an entire roll of film. Printers can now print pictures that are equal to and better than traditional photography.

Photo ID has also changed along with cameras. Traditional ID cards were made from photographs and Polaroid pictures. The photograph was cut to size, put on a pre-printed card and laminated. Although some people still prefer that method of creating photo IDs, most people are now switching to digital ID card printers and systems.

Modern day ID card systems use a digital camera, PVC cards and a digital ID card printer. ID cards can now be designed and printed using ID card software. Templates and cards can be saved for replacement prints. Digital ID cards can be easily updated and edited. As technology changes, photo IDs will continue to evolve.

We recently added three new digital voice recorders to our Web site. These recorders are used to capture sound, speeches, conversations and even phone calls. These new voice recorders are the equivalent for recording sound as the digital camera is for capturing images. These recorders store the audio, some up to 65 hours that can later be transferred to a computer for editing or later note taking.

Digital voice recorders are commonly used by students, doctors and lawyers for recording interviews, speeches and more. Rather than having to worry about a tape, all the data is stored digitally in the recorder that can later be stored to a computer and burned to a CD. Tapes tend to lose their integrity over time. Digital data will retain its integrity for years. Tapes limited to a small amount of space, usually ranging 20 to 90 minutes. The sound quality with digital recorders is far better than traditional analog tapes.

A wide variety of businesses and professions prefer to use voice recorders. Doctors will record medical findings, students will record class lectures and private investigators/reporters will use them for gathering data. These are just a few examples. A built-in speaker, or included headset, lets you listen to previous recordings on the spot.

Digital voice recorders are very compact, and do not need to make space for a cassette tape. They can easily in a purse or pocket. A phone attachment makes it possible to record conversations for investigational work or for preserving memories. You can see ABC Office’s entire line of digital voice recorders by going here.

Biometric devices have been integrated into many devices such as door locks, computers, car ignitions and
more. Because biometric devices use physical features of people, they cannot be duplicated and provide maximum security. They are growing quickly in popularity due to their reliability and proven technology. One of the most recent applications of biometric technology are time clocks.

ABC Office now offers the new biometric Acroprint HandPunch time recorder. This new device uses an employee’s hand to clock in and out of work. Because the employee’s hand is used to check in and out, time cards and magnetic stripes are not needed. Employees no longer have to worry about losing a card or swiping an ID. All you need is your hand.  You can see an example of this device by going here.

Using biometric time clocks eliminates fraud and address several problems prevalent in older punch-style
time clocks. In the past, businesses experienced problems by having employees’ friends clock in on behalf of others, even though they were not actually present. These meant employers were paying workers for time not worked. With the introduction of biometrics, and the HandPunch time clock, employees must be physically present to punch into work. Friends and coworkers are now unable sign in for other people. This guarantees that time reported is accurate. This helps businesses run more efficiently and saves money.

The HandPunch uses geometry biometrics. It determines who the employee is based on the size and shape of their hand. The system does not capture fingerprints or palm prints. Hand geometry is highly accurate, and is generally not affected by rings, small adhesive bandages and false fingernails. Employees simply place
their hand on the HandPunch unit and punch in an ID number to clock in and out. Green and red lights let the employee know the status of each punch.

Digital card printers make photo identification easy and are now something any computer literate person can use. Thanks to increasing popularity and use, supplies are more cost effective and will run you less than
the older Polaroid-style composite photo ID cameras. With a complex and increasingly dangerous world, a digital card printer is a necessity for both security and safety.

Polaroid cameras used to be the norm for photo ID. A picture was taken, removed from the camera and about 60 seconds to two minutes after the picture was developed it was cut to size. The photograph was then later attached to a pre-printed template, where it was later laminated and punched for use with a lanyard or badge holder. Although Polaroid photo ID systems are decreasing in popularity, they still have their place with low-volume photo ID production and small businesses.

The newer digital card printers use a process called die sublimation, where the color ribbon uses several different colored panels to create a full-color image. The quality of the image is as good and in many cases

better than the older Polaroid-style composite ID systems. Most of these ribbons can create around 100 ID cards before being changed. Although the digital printer may seem like a large investment up front, the cost to operate it, purchase blank PVC cards and ribbons actually saves you money over the long run in comparison to the composite systems. Software can be used to help create a basic template

A digital photograph can then be placed on the template, a logo can be added and text written. The full-color card can later be printed as easily as using your ink-jet printer. The saved card and template makes replacement cards easy. Once the card is printed, it can be placed in a badge holder or be punched for use with a lanyard or badge reel.

Digital ID cards are commonly used for businesses, colleges and for other IDs. They are also used for hotel keys, gift cards and more thanks to an optional magnetic stripe encoder. Magnetic stripes are the dark lines located on the back of your common credit card. Lines of data can be written to that stripe with the digital card printer. Digital cards can also be factory built with a smart card encoder. Smart cards are computer chips that store data such as a name, address, account information and more.

If you work for a business, university or would like to create gift or novelty cards, a digital card printer may be for you. They will provide you with added security, versatility and the ability to create an ID card for any situation or occasion.

ABC Office now sells a line of digital voice recorders that can easily capture sound, speeches and conversations. These digital voice recorders are the equivalent for sound as digital cameras are for images. These recorders store the audio, some up to 18 hours that can later be transferred to a computer for editing or later note taking.

These digital voice recorders are growing in popularity among doctors, lawyers, students, professors and more. Rather than having to worry about a tape, all the data is stored digitally in the recorder that can later be stored to a computer and burned to a CD. Tapes will break down over time. Digital data will retain its integrity for years. Tapes are also limited to a small amount of space, usually from 20 to 90 minutes, depending on the recorder. Digital voice recorders are available in models that will record as little as four hours or as many as 18 and more. Sound quality also increases with digital voice recorders.

Doctors often use these recorders for dictation with patients that can later be recalled or typed. Students will use these recorders for recording lessons in class, allowing them to interact and give their full attention and later replay discussions for note taking. These recorders are also very popular with private investigators and reporters. A voice recorder can be a lifesaver when trying to gather as much information as possible for a story or news article. A built-in speaker, or included headset, lets you listen to previous recordings on the spot.

Digital voice recorders are compact and can easily be fit in a purse, a pocket or other locations. For recording conversations, a voice recorder can easily be placed next to a podium or pulpit without creating an eyesore. A phone attachment allows phone conversations to be easily recorded.  This is ideal for recording conversations with loved ones or to gather evidence. In order to save battery life, a VOX/VOR feature is built in that will only record when sound is present.

Digital voice recorders are a great way to help you stay organized, record speeches, conversations and more.

Did you know that you are caught on camera about seven times a day? Security and hidden cameras are growing in popularity and it doesn’t appear that the demand will die down any time soon. Security cameras have been used to put criminals to jail for shoplifting, selling illegal narcotics, abuse and more.

Demand for surveillance cameras is especially growing in the baby sitter and nanny field of work. Concerned parents are purchasing cameras to keep an eye on those who are watching their kids. Parents who want to keep an eye on a small child or baby also use these cameras.

Security cameras can be placed in a wide variety of places. ABC Office sells several types of security cameras. Security cameras are usually either hardwired directly to a video recorder or the signal can be wirelessly transmitted to a video recorder.
