2. Introduction
The increasing adoption of automated car parking
systems is a trend that’s here to stay.
The Parksafe 580 is an automated parking system with
one central vertical lift and storage shelves positioned
either rightwards or leftwards of the vertical lift. It is
available in tower, pit or tower/pit configurations with
the transfer area at either the base level, top-level or at
one of the intermediate levels. It is possible to arrange
between 1-3 parking rows rightwards or leftwards of the
vertical lift.
3. Parksafe 580 Salient Features
The automatic car parking system is one of the most pioneering innovations of
our times. Some salient features of this parking system are:
● It is a multi-level car parking system in which cars are parked vertically,
thereby using less space on the ground.
● The automated multilevel car parking system typically has horizontal pallets
or carts on 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 eliminated from the parking process. The car is driven to an
entry point where the driver and passengers exit the car. The vehicle is then
automatically transported to its allotted space.
4. Safety provided by Safety Parksafe 580
The safety provided by the Parksafe 580 is another major facet of the
system:
● There are no ramps, sharp edges or gaps in the transfer area,
which ensures the safety of the users while using the system.
● The Parksafe 580 automated car parking system comes with a free
fall arrestor that acts as a safeguard against the pallet free falling in
case some part of the system fails.
● The system comes installed with a dedicated safety PLC and stop
monitoring circuit.
5. Safety provided by Safety Parksafe 580
● Fire and earthquake detectors can also be installed onto this
system for protection from calamities.
● The system can also detect fractures in its driving chain and
warn the operator before an accident occurs.
● The Touchless RFID Chips used to operate the system are
coded and tamper-proof to prevent theft, vandalism etc.
6. Parksafe 580 Convenience
Wohr has worked towards making the operation of the Parksafe 580
as convenient as possible:
● It features an Active Driver Assistance System - with a display and
traffic lights - to assist the driver with the parking process.
● It is also possible to integrate a turntable into this system so that
the car always reaches the driver the right way forward.
7. Parksafe 580 Reliability
Wohr’s focus on the reliability of its systems is also quite
commendable:
● The Parksafe 580 comes with an Auxiliary Drive that
allows the user to operate the system manually in case
the main motor is not functional. This system can be
installed quite quickly since Wohr ensures strict quality
control at the factory and no welding, drilling or cutting
is done on-site.
● The Parksafe 580 comes with a remote monitoring
system that provides email notifications for any errors
that may occur.
8. Conclusion
There are a number of ways in which the system can prove to be beneficial for architects and developers. For
example, the system comes in flexible configurations that allow it to be installed in a variety of layouts and floor
plans.
