Description

Automated car parking systems use a similar type of technology to that used for mechanical parcel handling and document retrieval. The driver leaves the car inside an entrance area and technology parks the vehicle at a designated area. Hydraulic or mechanical car lifters raise the vehicle to another level for proper storing. The vehicle can be transported vertically (up or down) and horizontally (left and right) to a vacant parking space until the car is needed again. When the vehicle is needed, the process is reversed and the car lifts transport the vehicle back to the same area where the driver left it. In some cases, a turntable may be used to position the car so that the driver can conveniently drive away without the need to back up. Automated car park systems save time, money, space and simplify the often tedious task of parking. Auto car lifts move vehicles into safe and secure storage areas until they are needed.

Cars are stacked on two or three parking levels above each other. Single units are for two cars each, double units are for four or six parking places each. Additionally, parking spaces made available using mechanical parking platforms and turntables which can be rotated or slided longitudinal. The car parking systems are particularly suitable for residential and commercial buildings, apartment buildings, office buildings, underground garages and hotels.
