Indian cities are a great amalgamation of a wide range of cultures and influences, where taking a turn can feel like stepping into a new world. Although gathering a lot of diverse thing into a relatively small space redefine cities and is one of the biggest advantages of the urban locations, it also creates a substantial challenge for developers. Space is an important element of a city, and developers have to create a perfect balance between the practical needs of their properties and the visions they have for them. One of the most significant examples of this balancing act is parking.
Properties need parking spaces, but traditional parking spaces or garages consume valuable street-level real estate and can have a negative effect on the aesthetics. Traditional parking garages also pose other problems such as public safety concerns and pollution. A significant increase in the number of vehicles over the last decade has also raised questions regarding the availability of enough parking space in the cities to accommodate them. When the traditional parking methods have proved to be ineffective, new advanced technology-driven automatic or semi-automatic parking systems turned out to be the solution for all parking-related issues.
Modern automatic/semi-automatic parking systems have not only efficiently increased the number of parking spots in a limited space but also transformed the parking experience. There are many automatic parking systems available today that provide service according to the parking requirement and space availability. The systems can be easily configured and customized to suit the demands of the customers.
A puzzle parking system is one of the most widely used semi-automatic parking systems that operates like a puzzle, adjudging the available spot for parking. When you call an empty platform, the system brings it to a ground level if it is not present already at the ground level. Access to any platform is at ground level by default. You have to park a vehicle on the steel platform manually in a puzzle parking system once the called platform comes to a rest. Once the car is settled, the system checks that it has been properly parked with the help of sensors.
The platform is raised/lowered and moved horizontally with the help of hydraulic cylinder and chain mechanism till it reaches its predetermined spot.
Some major advantages of a puzzle parking system are:
- The system makes parking faster and easier as the car can be parked and retrieved quickly without any hassle. This directly negates the commotions caused in the parking area because of an unplanned parking system.
- The system also ensures the safety of the vehicle. It significantly reduces the chances of theft and damage by minimizing the vehicle’s contact with anything when it is parked in the system.
- Maintenance of the parking system is very easy. Once installed, the system needs nominal oil changes and cleaning but nothing more than that for long durations if instructions are followed.
- The operating cost of the parking system is also low that makes the system sustainable in a long-term scenario.
