CNT-F18S Employee Time Clock Machine Overview
Technology
The CNT-F18S uses a high-performance biometric algorithm (BUI2.0) with a 500dpi fingerprint sensor for fast 1:N matching (identification speed < 0.8s). Independent processor and storage enable fully standalone operation — user management, shift assignment and report generation are performed directly on the device.
The CNT-F18S employee time clock machine helps organizations maintain disciplined attendance tracking while simplifying payroll preparation.
Durability & Design
Compact wall-mount design (160 × 130 × 31 mm) with energy-saving auto turn-off and an internal battery to preserve transaction data during power outages. Designed for everyday office use and easy wall or surface installation.
Connectivity & Integration
USB flash drive support for transferring user templates and exporting attendance logs to Excel or TXT files — no network or PC required. Exported Excel/TXT files can be imported into payroll systems. For networked integrations, an optional gateway or management software can be used.
Use Cases
- Small & medium sized offices needing a low-cost, reliable time clock.
- Retail outlets or remote sites with no permanent PC.
- Construction or field teams — portable deployments with USB power option.
- Shift-based operations needing shift/OT and retroactive editing on-device.

Why Choose CNT-F18S Employee Time Clock Machine
The CNT-F18S employee time clock machine is designed for businesses that require accurate attendance monitoring without depending on complex software installations. Unlike cloud-based systems, this standalone biometric device performs all core attendance functions directly on the hardware. This reduces IT dependency while maintaining high security and data accuracy.
Its 500dpi fingerprint sensor ensures reliable biometric verification even in busy office environments. With a capacity of 100,000 transaction logs and 1,000 fingerprint templates, the device is ideal for small to medium-sized companies, retail stores, warehouses, and construction sites.
By exporting attendance data directly to Excel via USB, payroll processing becomes simple and efficient. Shift management, overtime settings, holiday configuration, and retroactive adjustments can all be handled directly from the device interface, making it a practical and cost-effective employee time clock machine for growing businesses.
