Introduction
The creation of the coin counting and sorting machine exist for the purpose to help
people record down the quantity and total value of coin and divide the coin to corresponding slot
automatically. The concept of the coin counter is mostly based on the detection of the dimension,
weight, edge of credit pulses by using sensor. The coin sorting tray is designed to sort different
type of coins based on the size of coin in different denomination (Richard E. McCarty, Jr., 2001).
In the Philippines, the first coins were used in 1861. Until now, people still use coins in
their everyday lives. There are those that deal with coins everyday like banks, transport groups,
casinos, charitable institutions and the like. Coin counter technology is one of the basic
technological methods today. Aside from bank use, it is also consumed by people from medium
the banking industry. Coin sorting machines have the ability to sort from a random collection of
The Filipinos are too inclined in retail than in wholesale. With this, the researchers
suggest that this demand should be given attention. In connection to this, the business industry
uses coins in wide variety nowadays. This made the researchers to come up with the idea of coin
sorting, counting and packing system. Nowadays, the high technology has shown the
improvement to the counting and sorting machine as the modern device becomes more advanced
to running the counting and sorting process. Now, the device has the characteristic of simplicity,
convenience and high efficiency as the counting and sorting machine can be computerize and it
This study intends to develop a system that counts, sort and pack different coins

The design and development of the research is expected to provide more efficient coin
handling performance. Instead of spending too much manual labor in coin handling, the project
aims to obtain automation in coin segregating, counting and packing. The extent of the coin
segregator covers only 3 different coins namely 1, 5 and 10 Philippine peso coins. After the
segregation of coins, it will be packed by twenty piles at the packing station. The maximum load
on the coin hopper shall be limited of 40- 60 coins and limited to 20 piles of packed coins.
