The Customer

Giesecke+Devrient makes life safer for billions of people: Founded in Leipzig in 1852, G+D is still family-owned today.

The company has evolved from a manufacturer of banknotes, securities, and IDs to a global partner for security technology in the areas of payments, identity, connectivity, and digital infrastructures. Today, G+D is the market leader in banknote processing at central banks.

In the field of Currency Technology, G+D offers solutions for the automation and digitization of the cash cycle.

The offering combines hardware, software, and services into intelligent, scalable solutions around the cash cycle. Thanks to the group-wide expertise in protecting highly critical areas, G+D realizes customized cash centers as turnkey projects, enabling the cash cycle of an entire country to be realized.

Through automation, intralogistical standardization, and data-driven technology, banknote processing becomes extremely efficient: the costs of cash processing are reduced, making it attractive and competitive.

Eckelmann’s Contribution

  • Consultation/Concept Development

  • Mapping complex cash processing workflows

Linking Automation Technologies

In printing plants, banknotes are produced, counted, and packed into transport containers. BPS banknote processing systems check and sort the banknotes at high speed.

From there, they are bundled, sealed, and fully automatically stored. BDS systems securely and reliably destroy defective or old banknotes.

Giesecke+Devrient commissions Eckelmann with the heart and pacemaker of their cash centers — the central material handling system and the control of the subordinate transport systems. Together, they connect the machines of these fully automated systems into a highly efficient, smoothly operating unit.

Handling critical infrastructure is a matter of course for Eckelmann. The complex, highly automated systems must ensure high availability, safe operation, and traceable handling.
