MAXIMISE SPACE, MINIMIZE FOOTPRINT WITH WOHR AUTOMATED CAR PARKING SYSTEMS

Automated car parking systems is a trend that's here to stay. Across the world, real estate developers and municipal agencies have come to realise that scarcity of parking space is a very real problem that requires urgent consideration. The added problems of air pollution, wastage of time and fuel, traffic congestion, etc. make this situation even more serious.

The automatic car parking system is one of the best innovations of our times. It is a mu lti-level parking system in which cars are parked vertically, thereby using less ground space. The automatic car parking system typically has horizontal pallets or carts in each level and a vertical lift that carries the cars from the drive level to and from the different floors for parking and retrieving.

The driver is removed from the parking process. The car is driven to an entry point where the driver and passengers exit the car. It is then automatically transported to its allotted space.

Automated car parking systems are made of steel that can withstand high pressure and tension. A case in point is Wohr's Combiparker 555 installed outdoors, at a commercial complex in Kolkata, West Bengal. In August 2020, when Cyclone Amphan wreaked havoc on the state, bringing trees, buildings and other structures to the ground, the Combiparker withstood the onslaught with unshakeable strength and tenacity. Needless to add, Wohr Parking Systems are justifiably proud of this automatic car parking system project.

Features of automatic car parking systems - A combination of stacking and moving cars closer together - Uses state of the art servo drives and electronic guidance systems - Typical parking time is 1 minute - Horizontal pallets in each level optimises parking and retrieval time - Modular construction to suit space availability at site

- Requires constant power supply Advantages of automatic car parking systems - Parking space i.e. depth, width and height reduced substantially since there is no opening of doors or humans allowed near the parked vehicle. This compacts even more cars in less space - Can be constructed and operational faster than traditional parking lots - Can extend up to 50 levels height - Easy operation with several control options, e.g. transponder chip or remote control - Site security: with a variety of transponder form factors that can be mounted on or within the vehicle, people can enter a secured area without opening a door or a window to obtain authorization.

- No expensive ventilation and lighting system needed - No ramps or driving lanes - Less accidents - Security from thefts and car damage - Runs smoothly, swiftly and quietly - Easier for specially abled people - Cost-effective technology - Eliminates the need for parking attendants - Can be installed indoors or outdoors; above ground or underground - Suitable for car rentals, car service centres, multiplex, shopping mall, office buildings, industries, educational institutes, residential buildings, etc.
