- Train station ticket machines in Japan are so incredibly sophisticated, having to handle two different sizes of tickets, often with multiple tickets inserted at the same time (for the shinkansen/bullet train stations) and spit them out a fraction of a second later at the other end, thousands of times a day. Here a technician tests a machine at JR Hakata station after servicing it.

Wow, didn’t know it can also read stacks of tickets
When I went to Tokyo, the first thing that intrigued me is how you can insert a ticket any direction (sideways, forward, upside down, etc.) and it would always come back out at the same direction.
Well, in adition, You can enter more that one ticket, and it counts and deduct the travel price the right way = when You have on ticket with 50 yen credit and second one with 350 yen on it and price for transport is 55 yen, machine just deduct 50 from one ticket and 5 from teh one, which is returned to you, so the only one is returned to You as it's logical as You woudl personally do. And as mentioned in the video, it does not mattr, what is the format of tickets, if You enter them together as pack, or one by one... Emazing.
Man this is incredible to see
Incredible. What a work of art.
I can spend my whole day watching that mechanism... Wowoooo
I always wonder how the machine is so fast in moving the paper ticket!.. Thanks for the video.
そらどの会社もIC専用改札を推し進めるわけだ、この機構を丸ごと排除できるんだから
Probably fantastic performance and bandwidth ;).
Mine got stuck in Kaihinmakuhari...
Very complicated mechanism
which company makes these?
superspeeed
omron japan.
omron is inventor of this .
@@user-cp3ip3rw7r wow, Omron makes a lot of good medical equipment, we've had an Omron blood pressure monitor for decades, we bought one with bluetooth 10 years ago and it's still like new.
Someone said this particular one is made by Toshiba.
I’m surprised they just didn’t cheap out and go with something from Cubic Transit like London, or SF.
Stupid.....
Here in Korea,
In train system, there are no ticket checking machines. Just get on board. During travelling, Staff checks sold or vacant seats and standees with a PDA. They don't request to present tickets for occupied seats which are sold. Many passengers don't know whether they are checked or not.
In downtown subway system, we use token or cards without inconvenience.
Anyway, why don't they use magnetic, NFC or any other methods. Japan system looks like Sony WALKMAN inside. It was in '70s~'80s. 🙀
The ticket gates are now all RFID and I use them with my iPhone and Apple Watch. However you have to buy physical tickets for the bullet trains still.
um... you just called a manual process of a human walking around a train with a PDA to check tickets... better than one taht accept tickets in miliseconds. between stops there is literally not enough time for any human moving at any speed to check the sheer quantity of tickets of entrants into the system that a ticket system like this is needed for.
in the U.S. we use NFC mostly, and our antiquated AmTrac gov run train system uses humans with PDAs on long run routes only.
Just... stop. Stop the hate for Japan when no politics are involved.
You don't need a ticket or pass to ride Seoul Metro? Even for KTX and Korail you still need to buy a ticket. Paper tickets in Japan are mostly optional. You can use a card or phone. Also, the sensors they use in Japan are way faster than the ones in Korea, just based on my own experience.
The doors stay open unless somebody attempts to go thru without presenting a ticket.
