Applications

Sumetzberger’s pneumatic tube systems for banks connect a bank’s service area with the back office, which is mostly situated separately at a distance. Thus, the money supply to the counters, the dispatch of documents and administrative papers are handled in the fastest possible manner.

The counters can perform more tasks (consultation, information & money transactions). Every staff member can be responsible for providing information, consultation, and handling of non-cash as well as cash transactions. In addition, any customer care point can be manned by other employees at any time.

The need for the customer to queue several times is thus avoided. The personnel deployment can simply be adjusted to the customer frequency.

Features & Advantages

• No need for internal cash transports by the cashiers.

• More security because service area is physically seperated from the back office. There is hardly any cash present in the customer area

• More time for customers and comprehensive consultation

• Errands, waiting periods, and queuing several times are eliminated

• Improved work efficiency because counters can perform more tasks: consultation, information & money transactions

• Money storage expenses are low since all cash revenues are immediately available for payouts

• The implementation of a drive-in bank and remote teller solution is possible to handle every banking transaction beyond regular open hours

• Statistical interpretation of data (e.g. to enable cost-centre oriented accounting of the system costs)

Central money supply

The system

Several independent lines connect the central money depot and the bank counters; as a result, they can be operated simultaneously and independently of one another.

The tubes themselves can be installed on top of or inside the floor or on the lower story’s ceiling.
