iMin Crane 1 & Heron 1 Series | Desktop Android EPOS Till Systems | POS-Hardware

Welcome to our combined hardware page for the iMin Crane 1 and iMin Heron 1 desktop Android POS series. If you need a fixed, stationary electronic point of sale (EPOS) setup for a retail checkout counter, a busy bar, or a restaurant reception desk, these desktop terminals provide heavy-duty processing power and large touchscreen interfaces for your daily sales operations.

Both the Crane 1 and Heron 1 run on reliable Android operating systems, making them compatible with the primary cloud-based till software platforms used by independent businesses across the UK.

The iMin Crane 1 Desktop POS Series

The iMin Crane 1 is designed for businesses that require a large, clear display for operators and an option for customer interaction at the point of sale. It features a sturdy metal stand that keeps the screen stable during fast touchscreen inputs.

• Display Configurations: Available as a single 15.6-inch Full HD main touchscreen display, or as a dual-screen setup featuring a secondary 10.1-inch customer-facing display for order verification and digital receipts.

• Internal Hardware: Powered by an ARM Octa-Core processor with options for 2GB or 4GB RAM, and 16GB or 32GB ROM storage to manage local sales databases smoothly.

• Connectivity Ports: Built with a dedicated cash drawer port (RJ12), multiple USB ports for barcode scanners and card terminals, an Ethernet LAN port for wired internet, plus dual-band Wi-Fi and Bluetooth.

The iMin Heron 1 Compact Desktop Series

The iMin Heron 1 offers a smaller physical footprint, making it ideal for counter spaces where room is limited, such as boutique shops, coffee stands, or kiosks.

• Display Panels: Features an 11.6-inch Full HD main operator touchscreen panel. You can also select models with an integrated 4.3-inch secondary customer display on the back of the casing to show prices and totals.

• Processing Power: Utilises a fast Octa-Core CPU paired with 4GB RAM and 32GB ROM storage as standard, ensuring quick response times when opening apps and processing payments.

• Built-In Printing: Unlike standard fixed monitors, the Heron 1 base can include a built-in 80mm thermal receipt printer with an automatic paper cutter, saving valuable counter space by removing the need for a separate standalone printer unit.

Card Terminal and Cash Drawer Integration

Both the Crane 1 and Heron 1 series are built to form the central hub of your till counter. Their extensive physical connection panels allow you to plug in your existing UK merchant card payment terminals, receipt printers, USB barcode scanners, and standard 24V cash drawers without compatibility issues.
