Maxa Technologies (Maxatec) Accelerates Its Drive Into The PoS Market

Published 25th April 2007

Maxatec now supplies FlexPoS PoS Terminals, thermal receipt printers, touch screen terminals, scanners and cash drawers.

April 25 2007, Maxatec is concentrating on growing its position in the POS market by developing key partnerships and offering a comprehensive range of POS hardware including FlexPoS PoS Terminals, MT-150 Thermal Receipt Printers, Zebex Scanners and MMF Cash Drawers to the retail sector. This will meet the demands of retail businesses, from the small independents to the large high street retailers.

In addition, Maxatec can now supply a brand new selection of state-of-the-art Electronic Point-of-Sale/Point-of-Service Touchscreen Terminals, Modular EPOS PC’s and Portable Tablet PCs with a vast range of options that ensure fully flexible solutions for virtually any application in retail, hospitality, in-field service or healthcare. The touchscreen terminals can save time, space and help improve efficiency.

The touchscreen is one of the easiest PC interfaces to use and is therefore suitable for a wide variety of applications – especially where staff turnover is high or if users have little or no computer experience - minimum training is required. Touchscreen terminals are compact, convenient and can save time and money. Increased efficiency can lead to increased profits and an excellent return on investment.

The FlexPOS range of point-of-sale/point-of-service integrated workstations has been developed from industrial PC technology to withstand the rigours of modern hospitality and retail environments. Spill-proof LCD touchscreens (12.1 or 15 inch), lockable disc drive/power switch, wall-mount fixing and enclosed cable management are just a few of the rugged standard features. Intel™ chipsets provide a stable, flexible platform. Future protection is ensured through standard expansion features including compact flash card technology.

A powerful range of connectivity options include USB, serial, parallel and Ethernet. Fully integrated wireless LAN (802.11g WiFi) is also an option. Mobile devices and PDAs can be interfaced using WiFi or IrDA.

Maxatec now also offers a comprehensive range of cash drawers - full-size, mid-size and flip-top ranges are available in stock. This flexible range comes in variable dimensions and with a range of features, suitable for virtually any retail environment and any budget. Manufactured in Europe and the USA, Maxatec’s cash drawers are rugged and reliable. The range includes models with all metal construction and high quality performance features at a competitive price.

A key part of the POS offering is Maxatec’s MT-150, a single station thermal receipt printer ideal for receipt printing in virtually any retail or hospitality application to cater for the POS market. It has a small footprint and is economical and powerful – printing easy to read receipts with logos, bar codes, coupons and marketing messages. ESC/POS® command compatible, the MT-150 can integrate into existing applications, with fast printing at 150mm per second.
