Abstract: Paper sheets preprocessing apparatus includes a material remover, a detector, a controller, and a display. The material remover removes a material from a paper sheets assembly. The paper sheets assembly includes a plurality of paper sheets strapped by the material. The detector is located at an upstream side than the material remover, and detects information of the paper sheets assembly. The controller decides whether the paper sheets assembly satisfies a predetermined specification, based on the information detected by the detector. If the controller decides that the paper sheets assembly does not satisfy the predetermined specification, the display displays a reason to decide that the paper sheets assembly does not satisfy the predetermined specification.

Abstract: According to one embodiment, a strapping apparatus includes a setting device, a determination device, a strap band supply device, an acquisition device, a color decision device, and a warning presentation device. The setting device sets a denomination of paper sheets to be strapped. The determination device determines a color of a strap band to strap a bundle of the paper sheets, based on the denomination. The strap band supply device supplies strap bands from a first strap band reel previously stored. The acquisition device acquires an image of the first strap band reel. The color decision device decides a color of the first strap band reel, based on the image. The warning presentation device presents a warning if the color of the first strap band reel is different from the color determined by the determination device.

Abstract: According to one embodiment, a sheet processing method of a sheet processing apparatus having a plurality of processing modes includes taking in sheets one by one from a bundle of the sheets in which a batch card having identification information, and the sheets as mediums to be inspected are piled, conveying the sheet which has been taken in, discriminating a kind of the batch card, switching the processing mode of the sheet processing apparatus based on the kind of the batch card which has been discriminated, discriminating and counting the sheets subsequent to the batch card, storing a count result of the sheets in correlation with the identification information, and sorting the sheet into a stacker based on a discrimination result of the sheet.

Abstract: The banknote processing apparatus has a receiving portion into which banknotes are inserted, a take-out roller for taking out banknotes from the receiving portion, a detector for discriminating “regular and defective” and “front and back” of taken-out banknotes, and first to fourth stacking and banding devices for classifying and stacking banknotes on the basis of discrimination results and banding each 100 banknotes. When the first stacking and banding device fails in a mode that the first and second stacking and banding devices stack front bills and the third and fourth stacking and banding devices stack back bills, in expectation of 100 front bills being stacked in the second stacking and banding device, in the timing that the 97th front bill passes the detector, the take-out roller is stopped. When the number of front bills is less than 100, the take-out roller rotates and takes out one banknote.

Abstract: A bank note processing apparatus comprises an insert port into which plural sheets of rectangular shaped bank notes having front/back and top/bottom extending in a longitudinal direction, a take-out portion for taking out the bank notes from the insert port with the top or bottom laid ahead one by one, a conveying path which then conveys the bank notes, a detector which detects information relative to the front/back and top/bottom of the bank notes being conveyed, a front/back reversing portion which selectively reverses the front/back of the bank notes based on the result of detection, first and second stackers which stack the selectively reversed bank notes, a sorter which sorts the bank notes being conveyed to the first or second stacker, and first and second banding portions which band the stacked bank notes for every prescribed number of sheets at the same position of one side of the longitudinal direction of the notes.
