Question 1

How does the automated flat-parking system work?

Accepted Answer

Vehicles are parked at the entrance. The driver leaves the car, and the system's intelligent shuttle automatically transports the vehicle to an available space on the same or another level via lifting platforms and transverse conveyors. No driving inside the garage is required.

Question 2

What is the maximum number of parking spaces your system can handle?

Accepted Answer

Our standard flat-parking systems support up to 200 parking spaces per unit. For large-scale projects such as public parking lots or commercial complexes, multiple units can be combined to accommodate over 1,000 spaces.

Question 3

Is it suitable for SUVs and electric vehicles (EVs)?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Our system supports standard cars, SUVs, and EVs. We offer optional EV charging integration, allowing vehicles to charge while parked. The system is designed with sufficient clearance height and weight capacity for most modern SUV models.

Question 4

How long does it take to retrieve a vehicle?

Accepted Answer

Average retrieval time is 60-90 seconds, depending on system config and traffic. High-speed motors and smart scheduling software keep wait times low even during peak hours.

Question 5

What about safety and power failure?

Accepted Answer

Safety is our top priority. The system has multiple sensors, anti-fall locks, and emergency brakes. If power fails, a backup generator (UPS) ensures safe operation completion. A manual override mode lets trained staff operate safely.

Question 6

What is a PPY Flat Moving Parking System and how does it work?

Accepted Answer

A PPY Flat Moving Parking System, also called Planar Shuttle Parking, is a fully automated stereo garage. Cars are parked on pallets or comb tooth platforms at ground level. A shuttle cart then transfers the vehicle horizontally to a designated space on multi level racks. Retrieval is fully automatic. Drivers swipe a card or scan a license plate and the system delivers the car to the exit within 60 to 90 seconds.

Question 7

Which exchange mechanism do you use, comb tooth or pallet type?

Accepted Answer

We offer both. Comb tooth fork exchange is faster and eliminates pallets, reducing maintenance. Pallet type is more robust for high traffic commercial sites and better for tyre protection. We recommend comb tooth for new projects and pallet type for retrofit or heavy duty applications. Both comply with EN 14010 and CE standards.

Question 8

What safety features are built into the system?

Accepted Answer

Multiple safety layers: 1. Dual braking on all lifting motors. 2. Anti fall mechanical locks on every parking space. 3. Photoelectric sensors at entry and exit to detect oversized vehicles and pedestrians. 4. Emergency stop buttons at all access points. 5. Fire detection and sprinkler integration ready. 6. Power failure manual release mechanism. All systems undergo full load testing before shipment.

Question 9

What is the lead time and installation process?

Accepted Answer

Standard production lead time is 45 to 60 days after deposit and drawing confirmation. We supply pre assembled modules to reduce on site welding. Installation takes 30 to 45 days depending on project scale, supervised by our engineers or guided remotely via video with your local team. We also provide operation training for your maintenance staff.

Question 10

Do you provide after sales support and spare parts?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We provide a 12 month warranty on all mechanical and electrical components. Spare parts kits are shipped with the container. Remote troubleshooting is available 24/7 via WhatsApp or WeChat. For major projects, we can dispatch engineers to site or appoint a local service partner .

Question 11

How much does a PPY flat moving parking system cost?

Accepted Answer

Pricing varies by levels, capacity, exchange type, and site conditions. Roughly USD 3500 to 6500 per parking space for a 6 to 9 level system FOB China. For an accurate quote, please share your site layout, required car count, and vehicle mix sedan or SUV ratio. We will send a tailored proposal within 2 working days.

Question 12

Can the system integrate with existing building management or payment systems?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Our control system supports integration with building BMS, license plate recognition cameras, QR code payment, RFID cards, and mobile apps.

Question 13

Can this system be installed underground or in basements?

Accepted Answer

Yes. PPY flat moving systems are ideal for basement installations. They eliminate the need for driving ramps, saving 35 to 40 percent of civil construction cost and usable space. We provide structural drawings for basement pit design, waterproofing details, and ventilation requirements.
