Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2017129364A1] Disclosed is a method for checking a value document, according to which method ultrasonic pulses are applied to a number of points on the value document and echo pulses are produced by the reflection of at least one portion of each ultrasonic pulse in the value document. The echo pulses are received and echo values are thus formed, and a characteristic value for the degree of creasing of the value document is determined from at least the echo values. Also disclosed is a device for carrying out the method.
