ABSTRACT:
A machine and method for producing pressed items from coins, tokens, and like items. The machine includes multiple operating stations from where multiple operators can activate the machine; a press adapted to press coins, tokens, and like items delivered to it and to release pressed items therefrom; multiple collecting stations adapted to receive items that have been pressed; a gating device that delivers items to be pressed to the press in a predetermined order and in response to activation of the machine at the operating stations; and a dispenser that delivers pressed items from the press to the collecting stations in a predetermined manner. The method involves activating the machine at multiple operating positions so that more than one coin- or token-to-be-pressed associated with different operating positions can be in the machine awaiting pressing at the same time; determining the order in which the operating positions were activated; and pressing the coins or tokens awaiting pressing in a predetermined order.
