aura4.jpgThis new, advanced high security feature using electronic keys, pushes out tradition while driving forward customer needs. The keys can be programmed, tracked and assigned to specific personnel. For complete peace of mind, networked machines will also have remote facilities to enable the immediate cancellation of keys. Changing locks because of lost keys will become a thing of the past.

A key feature of the machine is the security of transactions and the cash handling system. The method for transporting cash into the cashbox has been designed to prevent criminal interference and speed up the cash transfer. The proven design of the current cashbox has been incorporated into the AURA, which offers the automatic sealing and locking of the box on removal, making the transporting of cash a safer process.
Access to the vault is secured by an electronic mechanism with no visible locks. The vault area is composed of a series of stainless and hardened steels and composite material designed to resist attack.
