Key features of vertical‑circular automated parking systems you need to know

　　Traditional ground-level parking spaces are few in number and occupy a large area. Compared with conventional parking lots and garages, they represent a significant waste of land. In response, mechanical multi‑storey parking systems have emerged, among which… Vertical circulation Multi‑storey parking garages have attracted widespread attention, yet most car owners remain concerned about their safety. The key features of vertical‑circulation multi‑storey parking systems are summarized below:

　　1. Safety devices are complete.

　　Sensor‑enabled smart security gate—features an intelligent lifting mechanism and remains closed when not in standby mode, preventing unauthorized access.

　　Seismic-resistant device—wind resistance up to Grade 10, seismic resistance up to Grade 8.

　　Vertical‑cyclic flexible system—featuring a composite guide wheel and guide rail that roll in contact, eliminating the need for lubrication and enabling “flexible” circumferential motion while reducing noise and energy consumption.

　　Door‑opening scratch‑prevention device—effectively eliminates the safety hazard of accidental door opening during garage operation.

　　Dual-loop anti-swing system—completely eliminates the “anti-swing dead zone” defect of the upper and lower limit‑positioning load plates, ensuring stable and safe operation.

　　Manual power‑off vehicle retrieval device — In the event of a hazardous or abnormal power outage, this device enables the vehicle to be safely retrieved.

　　Multi‑sensor detection system—equipped with over 20 sensor units to detect vehicle overlength, overheight, and foreign object intrusion, among other conditions. It also features audible and visual alarms as well as a display screen to ensure the safety of personnel and vehicles.

　　Emergency Stop Button – In an emergency, simply press the conspicuous red emergency stop button to halt all operations of the warehouse machinery.

　　2. Small footprint, large capacity

　　It occupies only about two ground-level parking spaces, yet after the garage is built, it can provide 16 to 20 parking spaces, making full use of various small, underutilized areas.

　　3. Flexible Layout

　　It can be installed individually or in combination, offering broad adaptability and a high expansion rate.

　　4. Convenient and fast access

　　The average parking time is just one and a half minutes, and the lower-level spaces are virtually indistinguishable from the surface‑level ones. It’s driver‑friendly for beginners—no reversing required.

　　5. Short construction period

　　Modular design and component‑based installation enable an average installation time of less than five days per unit. For non‑enclosed specialized equipment, the operating procedures are relatively straightforward.

　　6. Intelligent Control System

　　A dual‑intelligence control system that integrates industrial automation and PLC technology, featuring comprehensive cloud‑connected control capabilities, low failure rates, high reliability, and limitless potential for iterative innovation.

　　7. Multiple Operation Modes

　　Users can choose from multiple operation modes, including manual vehicle retrieval, queue‑based retrieval, and scan‑code retrieval, flexibly meeting the diverse management needs of different venues.

　　8. Integrated Charging Piles

　　In conjunction with the depot‑based charging system, a design featuring sliding contacts and slip rings ensures continuous charging: once the charging gun is inserted into the depot, charging commences, and after charging is complete, the gun is removed, helping to alleviate range anxiety.

　　9. Intelligence and Human-Centric Design

　　With no staff on site, car owners can use a mini-program to search for parking spaces, locate their vehicles, and make seamless payments—enabling efficient, hassle-free entry and exit, and helping to prevent congestion.

　　10. Energy-saving and labor-saving

　　With no extensive lighting, each vehicle consumes approximately 0.07 kWh of electricity. For example, the ChaoLi parking garage is equipped with a photovoltaic system and an energy storage system, enabling energy savings, emission reductions, and environmental protection. Operating unattended, it eliminates the need for additional staff, resulting in cost‑effective operations.
