Abstract: A method, an apparatus and a system relate to processing a transport container for objects of value, particularly value documents, such as for example banknotes. The method comprises the steps of feeding the transport container to an apparatus for processing the transport container, opening the transport container in the apparatus, emptying the objects of value from the transport container, and checking the transport container for a residual quantity. For the check, electromagnetic radiation is applied to the transport container, wherein a transmission image of the transport container is produced by means of the electromagnetic radiation. The residual quantity in the transport container is deduced by means of the analysis of the transmission image.

Abstract: A system for processing value documents and a corresponding method, include an apparatus for processing value documents, a housing in which the apparatus is integrated and/or a support on which the apparatus is arranged, and a recording device provided in or on the housing and/or on the support for recording actions carried out by an operating person while operating the apparatus. The system and method provide a more reliable recording of the actions performed by the operating person and enables a more reliable later check of the operating process.

Abstract: A system and a corresponding method for processing value documents, including bank notes, includes an apparatus for processing, for conveying and/or checking and/or counting and/or sorting value documents and a portable user interface configured for receiving information pertaining to the apparatus and/or the processing of the value documents, capturing one or several images, in particular of the apparatus, and reproducing the received information and/or captured images.

Abstract: An apparatus and a corresponding method for separating a band of a bundle of documents have a deformation device which is devised to deform the bundle, in particular to bulge the bundle, such that a portion of the band lifts from the bundle, and a separating device which is devised to at least partly cutting through the band in the region of the portion lifted from the bundle. A value-document processing system includes such an apparatus.

Abstract: A method and an apparatus are provided for processing a transport container with objects of value. The transport container is fed to the apparatus, preferably by means of a transport-container transport device of the apparatus. The apparatus is adapted to process the transport container automatically in accordance with the following steps: In the apparatus, the transport container is severed by means of a severing device, the objects of value are emptied from the severed transport container and are collected by means of a collection container in the apparatus. The collection container with the objects of value is transported away for the further processing of the objects of value by means of a collection-container transport device.
