MIS

The MIS captures an image of the magnetic pattern present on banknotes, checks and tickets with magnetic ink, including the magnetic security line.

While the CIS measures the optical information (print/color), the MIS detects the variations in the magnetic field associated with the magnetic elements of the document, creating a magnetic “map” that can be used for authenticity and consistency checks with a reference.

• Accurate detection even with weak or degraded magnetic fields.
• High noise immunity and measurement stability over time.
• Compact structure that can be easily integrated into reading modules.
• Low power consumption and direct interface with MCU or FPGA.
• Maintenance-free: Factory calibrated and sealed for long life.

APPLICATIONS

• Banknote and check validation systems.
• Counting and sorting devices (sorters).
• Magnetic ticket readers or security tags.
• Document recognition and cash recycling machines.
• Banknotes.
• Checks.
• Ticket with magnetic ink.
• Magnetic pattern and security line detection.

The MIS is mounted immediately after the CIS in the banknote path:
While the CIS acquires the visual image, the MIS measures the magnetic response.
The two sensors work in synchrony on the same clock signal, providing perfectly aligned optical and magnetic data in real time.
and position.

This combination allows you to:

• identify well-printed fakes that lack magnetic inks;
• check the presence and position of the safety filaments;
• improve statistical certainty of authenticity in automatic validation systems.
