The KA12-1 compact cash drawer is distinguished by a combination of a small footprint and a large capacity. Thus, it harmonizes with the new generation of POS systems, which are likewise characterized by their small space requirement. The KA12-1 offers sophisticated operation and a high standard of security. The cash drawer opens as far as the coin compartment area. It can then be pulled out manually as far as it is necessary for working. It is mounted on rolls and thus moves extremely smoothly. The cash trays can be completely removed from the cash drawer and optionally be equipped with a lockable cover. It can then be used as a temporary cash tray.
