The joys of automatic car parking systems with wohr's parksafe 580

Everybody's talking about automatic car parking systems these days. As urban centres struggle with rampant development and the growing number of cars owned by the burgeoning population, automated multilevel car parking systems provide a logical and effective solution. Across residential complexes and business centres, commercial properties and hospitals, hotels, colleges, etc., car parking systems are helping urban planners, developers and administrators provide more parking spaces in limited floor areas.

What are automatic parking systems (APS)?

APS are structures where cars are stacked vertically to optimise space. The automatic car parking system is designed to transport vehicles from the entrance to its parking space without the driver present. The APS works with a combination of electro-mechanical infrastructure, conveyance devices and software technology. The conveying devices are capable of vertical and horizontal movement and are used to store and retrieve vehicles to and from available parking positions - all without human intervention.

No humans walk inside the automated parking garage or drive vehicles within the structure. This enables high-density parking and efficient land use. With no ramps, turning radii, or pedestrian walkways needed, the system utilizes the structure efficiently and frees up valuable space for more units or amenities. The system also ensures vehicles are safeguarded against theft or vandalism.

Wohr’s Parksafe 580 APS

Parksafe 580 is an automatically controlled parking system with one central vertical lift and storage shelves positioned either rightwards or leftwards to the vertical lift.

A tower parking solution, Parksafe 580 is available in tower, pit or tower/pit configurations with transfer area at either base level, top level or at one of the intermediate levels. Arrangement of 1 up to 3 parking rows rightwards or leftwards of the vertical lift is possible.

Parksafe dispenses the need for ramps and driving lanes, provides safety and security against theft, damage and vandalism and is environment friendly in respect of its compact construction and reduced emission of exhaust gases emitting from the parked vehicle.

The car is parked by the user on a platform that stores it fully automatically in a high rack storage system. Thanks to this parking system, the existing parking space can be used optimally: every car finds its perfect parking space.
