Operational and Technical Characteristics

Rotary Automated Car Parking System
IV. OPERATIONAL AND TECHNICAL CHARACTERISTICS
The proposed technical solution for a multi-level, automated parking space is far better
than the alternatives that are now available and takes into account the issues raised in
the parking space studies. The worth of a parking spot's total area indication, the typical
time it takes to park and unpark vehicles, and the reliability of its functioning are all
therefore much reduced.
A. Supply of labor and its quality (including management)
During the pre-development stage of the business, there are certain required
professionals needed. They are software developers, hardware engineers, project
managers, and system integrators. The software developers are responsible for
developing and designing the software that will run the parking system and also with the
mobile application associated with it. They will ensure that the software is reliable and
efficient by meeting the requirements and specifications of the system. The hardware
engineers are responsible for designing and developing hardware components of the
parking system. The project managers are responsible for overseeing the entire project
for start to finish. They will make sure that everything is going according to plan, from
time, budget, and to the required quality standard. The system integrators are in charge
of integrating all the hardware and software components of the system. They will make
sure that everything is working together and is fully operational.
With the required professionals identified, the factors to consider while recruiting them
would be based on their experience. Based on benchmarking, the cost of labor for the
employees would range from 500 PHP to 2,500 PHP per hour. The labor cost mentioned
has yet to be finalized since it must be carefully evaluated that they are within the
budget.
Moreover, the management team will be composed of the project manager, technical
manager, human resource manager, and the finance manager. The project manager was
already mentioned that they will be responsible for overseeing the entire project. The
technical manager would be responsible for overseeing the technical aspect of the
project like the hardware, software, and system integration. The human resource
manager is responsible for managing the human resources need for the project. It
includes recruitment, training, retention and employee relations. The finance manager is
repsonsible for managing the financial aspects of the project which includes, budgeting,
cost control and financial reporting.
With the driver parking and leaving the car in the system on the ground, it is easy to
operate. The mechanism rotates to pull the parked car away from the bottom center
position as soon as the driver exits the built-in safety zone, which causes the vehicle to
be automatically parked. The following vehicle may now park on the vacant spot that is
now accessible at the ground level. By pressing the button for the appropriate position
number, the parked car is quickly and simply retrieved. In order for the driver to reach
the safety zone and reverse the car out of the system, the necessary car rotates down to
the ground level as it functions.
Operational Characteristics:
● Solidly built, installable anywhere

● Cost-saving
● More than 6-24 cars can avail in a space designed for 3 cars to park
● Reduce noise and vibration, it uses a rotating mechanism
● Operational Flexibility
● It is possible to operate the system without an operator/caretaker
● Stable and reliable
● Easy to install
B. Supply of key inputs needed for operations
The Rotary Automated Car Parking System requires several key inputs to operate
effectively. The inputs required for a parking system include continuous power supply,
raw materials and components, parking management software, structural components,
and skilled personnels. A continuous and uninterrupted supply of electricity is necessary
to operate the system’s motors, sensors, and control systems.
● Power Supply: A continuous and uninterrupted supply of electricity is necessary

to operate the system’s motors, sensors, and control systems.
● Raw Materials and Components: A rotary automated car parking system requires
various raw materials and components to function. The following are materials
and components needed:
1. Steel: Used for the frame and foundation of the system.
2. Concrete: Used for the foundation of the system since it creates stability
and and support.
3. Electrical Components: These are motors, actuators, and controllers in
which it assist in controlling and managing the system.
4. Sensors: Used for detecting the presence and movements of vehicles in
the system.
5. Parking Platforms: Used for holding and moving the vehicles in the
system.
6. Elevator System: Used to lift the vehicle to the desired level in the system.
7. Control System: These are the software and hardware components in
which are used to manage the movements of the parking platforms,
elevator system, and other components in the system.
8. Safety and Security Components: These are CCTV cameras, safety
barriers, alarms, electric generators, and emergency stop buttons to
ensure the safety of the customers and their vehicles.
9. Maintenance and Repair Components: These are diagnostic software,
measurement tools, lubricants, spare parts, and tools that are needed to
maintain and keep the system operational.
● Parking Management Software: A software program is required to manage and
control the system's operation, including user input, vehicle recognition, and
parking allocation.
● Structural Components: The structural components of the system, such as the
rotary platform, columns, and transfer mechanisms, are critical inputs needed for
the proper functioning of the system.
● Skilled Personnels: They are engineers, technicians, and other skilled and
experienced personnel that operated and maintain the system.
These inputs are necessary for the proper functioning and safety of the system, as well
as for the convenience of the users.
There are several companies here in the Philippines that supplies the raw materials and
components needed for the Rotary Automated Car Parking System. Namely, PTCC,
Apex Parking, Parkplus Inc., Simatec Systems, and Automated Technology Philippines.
Since there are a lot of suppliers for the materials, it can be assured that most of the
time the components needed are available.
When implemented in populated areas that are well-established, busy, and have a
parking space problem, it is fairly effective. While the assembly of this system appears to
be simple, it cannot be understood without a thorough grasp of materials, the machining
process, kinematic and dynamic mechanisms, chains, sprockets, bearings, etc.
Modeling a Rotary Automated Car Parking System in a CAD System:
Utilizing a CAD System is recommended to support the mechanical design function for
the following reasons:
● In order to boost productivity

● To improve the mechanical design’s quality
● To establish design specifications and develop a database for manufacturing
● To eliminate irregularities between drawings and errors caused by manual
copying of the design
