ADJUSTABLE COIN MECH
« on: August 02, 2004, 09:58:50 am »
hi:

Could somebody give me the url of some coin mech builder that shells Adjustable coin mechs or acceptors, my coin is Costa Rica's 50 colones, it's a little bit bigger than US $1.

Happs shells coin mechs but they need 15 coins to builds its, but i've seen some coin mechs (or acceptors) that you can adjust manually.
This issue has stuck my arcade project.

Beforehand thanks by your help and sorry by my poor english.

The "roll down" style of coin mechanism is the easiest user adjustable coin mechanism. If you do an internet search yourself, use the search terms "roll down" and "Coin Selector".

If you need the 3 inch by 4 inch coin acceptors found on most coin doors then you'll run into problems. For your purposes you would probably need to buy the "electronic coin comparing" mechanisms that you place a sample coin in a holder. The electronics scan all coins and accept only those coins that match the sample coin.
