Product innovations for the Ima 2014: Gauselmann Group sets new standards

 

Brilliant colours and clear pictures – the Merkur Ideal Vision Slant Top ‘SL’ - The Merkur Ideal Vision Slant Top ‘SL’ is first and foremost remarkable for its excellent optical qualities. The two twenty-six inch monitors feature outstanding depth of focus thanks to their innovative Merkur Profitech HD technology. The loudspeakers in the upper part of the housing frame also ensure excellent entertainment with their 2.1 stereo sound. This innovative product is rounded off by its optimised hand-rest surfacing and ergonomically improved footrest. Alongside the brilliant HD definition, the Merkur Ideal Vision Slant Top ‘SL’ has an optimised cash insertion and payout system as well. The coin elevator Merkur Elevator moves coins up to the control panel conveniently and securely. They are automatically transported from the scale hopper via the Merkur Elevator up to the payout bowl. Faulty coins from the coin entry are rejected in the same way. The Merkur Dispenser 100, the product that has redefined cash handling, is a new standard feature. At the IMA Party on the 15th of January the two Merkur Dispenser 100s with the serial numbers 100,000 and 100,001 personally signed by Paul Gauselmann will be auctioned off for the benefit of SOS Children’s Villages.

Futuristic design and state-of-the-art engineering – Merkur Ideal Space Kugel  - The new Merkur Ideal Space Kugel is an eye-catcher in any gaming location. Its design is the main emphasis – both internally and externally. It is futuristic and is set to become the main feature of every gaming location. Players enjoy absolutely uninterrupted entertainment thanks to the swivelling monitor. The integrated ‘Merkur Profitech HD’ makes an even more intensive gaming experience possible and is remarkable for depth of focus. Furthermore, this includes a well-designed sound system. Thanks to the Merkur Elevator and Merkur Dispenser 100, it has the most efficient cash handling ever as well, just as you would expect in the Merkur Ideal Vision Slant Top ‘SL’. The very latest HD games packages are of course included in this all-round talent. The Merkur Ideal Space Kugel will be available from spring 2014.

The new games packages and My Top Game for the ‘De Luxe’ games packages  - The new Merkur Magie HD and Merkur Magie HD De Luxe are perfectly adapted to the Merkur Ideal Vision Slant SL’s HD technology. Merkur Magie HD includes 30 fascinating games and the larger HD De Luxe version even 60. The ‘Odin’ and ‘Knockout Wins’ games, which are available only in the HD packages, deserve special mention. The Merkur Magie 2014 and Merkur Magie 2014 De Luxe games packages also ensure first class entertainment. In addition to the essential classic games, players can look forward to seven brand new ones, including a poker game in response to popular demand. Merkur Magie 2014 features 30 exciting games and our Merkur Magie 2014 De Luxe 60. New hybrid games will be introduced as well. The ‘games makers’ come into their own with three new hybrid games at one go, namely ‘Seven Hold’, ‘Wiper’ and ‘Zwei Dazu’. Both packages also include nine further new games on a screen basis, of which ‘Sonnenkäfer’ and ‘Raptor Hunter’ will initially be exclusively available in the Merkur Magie 2014 Hybrid (30 games) and Merkur Magie 2014 Hybrid De Luxe (60 games) packages. My Top Game is a genuine plus for any games location. The globally unique feature gives users direct access to the Merkur Magie games library with its 200 games – and that as standard: As from now on the My Top Game feature is already included into all Merkur Magie De Luxe games packages.

Unique games variety for the gastronomy sector - The Merkur Multi VI De Luxe is to be presented at the IMA 2014 for the first games package for the pubs, bars and restaurant segment with 60 entertaining games. The smaller Merkur Multi VI with its 30 games includes five new ones for the gastronomy industry and promises optimal entertainment value too. Merkur Multi Multi is a 3-in-1 wonder and premium device for sale to this industry. With three different games combinations in just one games package, the Merkur Multi Multi offers extremely easy games package switching between ‘Merkur Multi Jewel’, ‘Merkur Multi Gastro’ and ‘Merkur Multi Super Multi VI’: a very promising package of 38 different and exciting games. Merkur Multi Jewel has a new design and an entertaining collection of 20 games providing the best of entertainment in the pubs, bars and restaurant segment. The Ergoline version of this device available for sale has three new releases at one go for the catering industry and thus continues the Merkur Multi Gastro’s record of success.

The new games centres: attractive gaming and betting options - The subsidiary MEGA will present two new games centres right on time at the IMA 2014. The Limburg-based company will grab the visitors’ attention with El Dorado and Seven. The dual-equipped El Dorado sets new standards. The new games centre features incredible flexibility in games locations as any 42” or 32” device hitherto used as a quadruple system can in future be modified into a dual system regardless of games type. This includes games systems used currently. The El Dorado is oriented to the mystic Maya age. Thanks to Seven, one of the most exciting game themes has found its way into the additional games of the games centres.  Players set out in the tracks of the Pharaohs in quest of Egypt’s allegedly lost treasures. Seven jackpots are featured for the first time to ensure nail-biting gaming entertainment.

Adp presents a world premiere – the new electronic approvals label - adp Gauselmann GmbH will present the truly world premiere – the electronic approvals display – at the IMA 2014. Construction type and permit number can be displayed on digital e-paper at a click. The electronic approvals card merely needs to be inserted in the electronic number plate to do so. This is then automatically checked for database, number plate and electronic approvals card compatibility. The data is permanently displayed and stored even when the device is switched off.

The perfect access control solution - Gauselmann’s access control solutions make it easy to completely comply with the new legal rules on player and youth protection. The Merkur Check-In offers the right answer for every need and games location. A choice of four modular packages that can be individually expanded is available. In addition to the direct OASIS® blocking data check the system also features the option of maintaining local blocking data and easy handling of all blocking documentation management. The system does not predicate storage of player files. In cooperation with the BA, BA members can receive BA network special terms and conditions of monthly rental for Merkur Check-In.

CASHPOINT and sports betting shop at the IMA 2014 - On the CASHPOINT stand (G21) in Hall 8B it’s all about sporting successes. Apart from the wide variety of sports betting products there’s a new shop concept and the innovative Merkur Bet Book betting terminal. The complete range of emotions has been taken into account: IMA visitors can look forward to four live amateur boxing bouts professionally commented by the legendary boxer Axel Schulz. Stand visitors can compete with the robot football goalie or test their reactions on the Formula One simulator. Football freestyler Aylin Yaren and the ball artiste ‘Jacek – he who dances with the ball’ will ensure the best of entertainment.

Ideal cash handling for over 20 years - The Gauselmann subsidiary GeWeTe is represented at the IMA 2014. Current matters of interest in the cash-handling field include the introduction of the new euro notes, EC cash solutions and sports betting. GeWeTe will present the bestseller Maxi Cash Recycler – in a special fully equipped edition – and the Coin Recycler net. The Coin Recycler net is the cheapest form of professional money filling management. Linkage to merkur info net and all standard networks means GeWeTe has an economical device that optimally implements filling management needs in a gaming location.

Service is what is key for the ‘games makers’ - adp Gauselmann is always looking for new ways for gaming entrepreneurs to offer their clients even better entertainment. Whether its player marketing or service – the team from Germany’s Eastern Westphalia will be showing exemplary products at the fair: They include Merkur Event Campaigns development and the perfect mix of service and entertainment in Merkur Infotainment. Accessories and adp merkur service are featured on the stand.

All these Gauselmann Group product innovations will be presented from the 14th to the 17th January 2014 at the IMA in Hall 8B on stands G30, K50, K40, G20, G21 and L10 of the Düsseldorf exhibition grounds.
