Recently, our company's high-performance negative-3/positive-3 lifting and transverse shifting automated parking system has successfully completed installation, commissioning, and trial operation at the Costa Rica project site; the equipment operates smoothly overall, meets all performance specifications, and is now officially commissioned for operation.
The vertical lift-and-transverse shift parking system deployed in Costa Rica is an intelligent parking solution specifically tailored to overseas site conditions and featuring optimized upgrades. It employs a three-tier underground and three-tier above-ground vertical lift-and-transverse shift configuration, effectively breaking through the spatial limitations of traditional flat parking systems. Based on a mature lift-and-transverse shift operating principle, the equipment utilizes high-precision motor drives, a chain-driven mechanism, and a PLC-based fully automated intelligent control system to achieve precise lifting and smooth transverse shifting of the vehicle platform, thereby automating the entire vehicle storage and retrieval process—eliminating the need for manual intervention and significantly enhancing parking efficiency. Compared with traditional parking models, this system can multiply the number of parking spaces within limited site areas, maximally leveraging the potential of both underground and above-ground three-dimensional space, and perfectly addressing the pain points associated with limited parking resources in core urban areas, commercial zones, and residential communities abroad.
In terms of structural design, this equipment boasts particularly outstanding advantages. The core structure of the equipment is embedded within an underground pit area, leaving no redundant steel structures above ground; its overall layout is clean and orderly, ensuring that it does not obstruct natural lighting or damage the overall landscape of the site, while being fully compatible with the local architectural style and urban planning standards of Costa Rica. Additionally, the equipment is equipped with a comprehensive multi-layer safety protection system, featuring full-range safety mechanisms such as fall prevention protection, pedestrian and vehicle intrusion warning, vehicle length and weight exceedance detection, power-off self-locking, emergency braking, and under-voltage/over-current protection. This system establishes a robust safety defense across multiple dimensions—including equipment operation, vehicle parking, and personnel safety—while operating with low noise levels and low energy consumption, combining high safety and environmental sustainability to meet long-term stable operation and maintenance requirements in overseas environments.
According to the commissioning data collected at the project site, this equipment set features fast access and retrieval response times, stable and smooth operation, and a low failure rate; it also boasts prominent characteristics such as durable construction, convenient maintenance, and low operational and maintenance costs, making it well-suited for operating and maintenance conditions in remote overseas locations. Tailored to the local climate and site construction conditions in Costa Rica, the equipment has undergone specialized optimization in terms of corrosion-resistant materials, structural compressive strength, and environmental adaptability, enabling it to effectively withstand humid and volatile outdoor environments, significantly extending its service life, and fully demonstrating the high-quality craftsmanship and technical compatibility of our company's parking equipment.
As global smart city initiatives accelerate, demand for intelligent, efficient, and energy-saving static parking infrastructure across various countries worldwide continues to rise. As one of the core cities in Central America, Costa Rica is witnessing increasingly pronounced mismatches between urban parking supply and demand, where traditional parking models can no longer keep pace with the pace of urban development. The newly implemented three-dimensional parking equipment featuring a negative-three-to-positive-three configuration offers a lightweight yet highly efficient parking upgrade solution for the local area, leveraging its comprehensive advantages—including high space utilization efficiency, advanced intelligence integration, superior safety and reliability, and exceptional cost-effectiveness.
In the future, our company will continue to deepen its presence in overseas markets, leveraging insights into the site conditions, urban planning, and usage requirements of different countries to continuously optimize our product technologies and solutions.
