MactwinBox 5: 25% lighter and more multifunctional than ever
Mactwin’s cash-in-transit case has more than proven to be a future-proof solution.
Although technology has evolved quite a bit in the last 40 years, the concept and primary functionality have remained the same: where there is no loot, there will be no attack. In the event of a robbery, the MactwinBox is activated, immediately and irreversibly mutilating all banknotes in the suitcase.
The value-runner is not able to influence this process and is therefore not in danger.
A siren coming from an activated MactwinBox will frustrate the criminal and urge him to flee, generally leaving the MactwinBox at the crime scene.
In the hypothetical case that the MactwinBox is taken, the criminal will quickly find out that there is no usable money left and that the mutilated money will never be recoverable.
He’s left empty-handed, which sends a strong signal to other would-be robbers: you won’t get anywhere if you rob a token runner.
In the 1980s, this signal led to a drastic decrease in the number of attacks on cash transport operations on the Dutch streets.
The MactwinBox can now be found in several countries around the world.
What’s new?
Today’s technology offers new possibilities, which have led to the creation of the latest model: MactwinBox 5.
Improve Your Operation
MactwinBox 5 now has one multifunctional hood, which can accommodate five different trays.
This increases operational flexibility, as you can use the same hood for picking up and dropping off money, multi-run operations and cassette changes (MEI and ATM cassettes).
Multiple systems in the CIT vehicle are no longer necessary, which saves money and reduces the number of human errors.
Happy Runners
The user experience of the value runners has been at the forefront of the development of the MactwinBox 5.
For example, it is no less than 25% lighter than its predecessors, without sacrificing durability!
With a lightning-fast new engine, day-to-day use is faster than ever.
In addition, the MactwinBox 5 is compatible with the latest GPS and GLONASS satellite technology and has a new roaming network SIM, ensuring optimal connectivity at all times.
Easy key management
In the past, if a cash runner wanted to visit several customers in a row (e.g. in a shopping centre), they could work with customer keys or the value runner first had to deliver the key to the location, walk back to the vehicle and then walk the same distance back with the cash transport case.
Both options were not ideal; A customer key can be lost, stolen, or the contact can be absent.
Walking twice takes too much time.
That’s why we developed KeyTerminal.
It works as follows: a customer location is provided with a KeyTerminal.
The token offers its iButton (secure electronic key) and the KeyTerminal starts an authentication protocol.
The iButton then receives the credentials to open the MactwinBox (once and within a specified time window).
Without these credentials, the iButton is useless.
The four-eyes principle still applies, but the extra person has now been replaced by technology.
Once installed, the KeyTerminal cannot be removed without the system resetting itself.
This renders KeyTerminal completely useless in the event of theft or vandalism, until authorized personnel reactivate it.
