How Does The ATM Machine Work?
Oct 16,2020
ATMs are essentially basic computers but with additional ATM parts that allow for specific functions, allowing the software that is running on the computer to carry out the functions. They can break or malfunction just like any other computer. Since there are so many specialized functions in an ATM, there needs to be a readily available source of approved ATM spare parts for maintenance.
Parts of an ATM include:
Card Reader. This reads account information that is stored on a magnetic strip, the one that you always see on credit and debit cards. The data retrieved is passed on to a host processor, which in turn is able to interpret the information and retrieve the customer’s account information.
Keypad. This allows customers to input the information they need to give. It lets them input their personal identification or pin code, select what type of transaction they want to make, and generally communicate with the ATM software.
Display screen. Like any computer, this allows customers to see each step of the process or transaction they are doing.
Speaker. This allows the customer to hear when keys are being pressed on the keypad, but it may also allow for additional voice features on certain ATMs.
Receipt printer. Although much of the process of an ATM is digital, printed receipts are requested by many or most ATM customers. This ATM part makes this possible.
Cash dispenser. The main purpose of an ATM is for a customer to acquire cash, so of course this is the most important part. The cash dispenser is a pivotal part and a part that is highly sophisticated.
Getting new and quality parts for your ATM is economical in the long run and will prevent headaches down the line. New parts include recent updates that the part may have needed or changes to the manufacturing process that the old part would not have. Keeping parts up-to-date keeps the machines running to recent and legal standard. Make sure the parts and pieces of your ATMs are of a high quality and feel secure in them being out in the field.
