Card Readers

Nidec Instruments’ Card Reader

Nidec Intruments originally developed their magnetic card reader in 1971. An effort was made in the development of the card reader which included the finance system of the ATM, where you can also find the reliability inside the automated teller machine. The motor which conveys a cash card of course adopts an in-house developed product using strong point technology and also adopts an in-house kai product as the magnetic read/write head which reads a signal of a magnetic tape.

Nidec Instruments had developed a magnetic tape recorder and a VCR mechanic organization then, and the magnetic reading technology built by those and precise mechanical technology improved the performance of the card reader on leaps and bounds.

By the way how many cash cards do you have? It’s said that they’re possessing 3.2 per one person by an investigation on some financial relations. E-cash was spreading recently, but they think the cash card is important as expected when saying well.

The cash card has started from United Kingdom London in 1967. Surprisingly, the beginning wasn’t plastics, and it was made of paper. The magnetic card appeared for the first time in the United States in 1968. And the magnetic card type cash card was also introduced in Japan in 1969. The magnetic card started to be used widely at the equipment ATM where cash is drawn out automatically. The beginning ties 10 one thousand yen bills in bundle, and seems to have been the equipment to which they contribute in the state in the bag.

Now, the ATM has been using magnetic cards for many years. The magnetic card was first developed by IBM as a security system for the US government. It is now widely used in bank cash cards and credit cards. I’m sure there are many in your wallet.
