If you've ever visited Akruti Skypark in Mumbai, India, you
would have seen Wohr's automatic
car parking system technology at work. An impressive public garage,
it rises 20 levels high and accommodates 240 parking spaces under one roof.
Wohr's car
parking system at
Akruti Skypark is the Multiparker 750. Located on Mumbai's upmarket Bhulabhai
Desai Road, it is a fully automated system wherein parking and retrieval of
cars takes barely 2-3 minutes. Estimates suggest that a parking facility of
this kind with 240 cars, frees around 1.25 km of road space in an already
congested locality.
When a large number of parking spaces is called for, Wohr
recommends the Multiparker range of automated car parking systems.
Here, storage and retrieval units or shuttles move vehicles
along all three motion axes. The various versions thus cater to a wide range of
different requirements, the purpose of which is always to gain the maximum amount
of space in order to be able to accommodate yet bigger amounts of vehicles, via
the lateral and vertical stacking of said vehicles to form a parking rack.

Multiparker variants
The different Multiparker models include:
Multiparker 710
This car parking
system is
particularly suited to wider structures. Car transport is arranged crosswise.
It is possible to provide the Multiparker 710 with a turntable unit, which
simultaneously turns the car into the exit position during transport and
lifting.
It is available in tower and/or pit version providing 2 to 8
parking levels, and can be installed in multiple row arrangements with up to 2
parking rows behind each other.
Multiparker 720
The Multiparker 720 offers space saving parking in a
structure similar to a high-rack shelving system and is particularly suited for
smaller floor plan areas featuring high structures. Car transport is arranged
crosswise. It is possible to provide the Multiparker 720 with a Turntable unit
which simultaneously during transport and lifting, turns the car into the exit
position.
It is available in tower and/or pit version providing up to
50 parking levels high, and can be installed in multiple row arrangements with
up to 2 parking rows behind each other.
Multiparker 730
The Multiparker 730 provides space saving parking by
stacking cars side by side and on top of each other to a high rack. Crosswise
parking in 3 rows left and right of the shuttle. For very fast access, shuttles
run independently and simultaneously on each level between parking places and
lift. For each parking level having a large number of parking places, it is
possible to install two or more shuttles. High performance is supported by an
integrated quick-pallet-change system, for simultaneous replacement of the
loaded and empty pallets.
Multiparker 740
The Multiparker 740 is particularly suited to narrow and
long floor plan areas. Multiparker 740 stacks cars side by side and on top of
each other in a high rack storage system. Longitudinal parking next to the
storage and retrieval system. The optimized system configuration features up to
3 parking rows both to the right and to the left of the storage and retrieval
system and up to 8 parking levels stacked on top of one another.
Multiparker 750
Multiparker 750 is suitable for construction cubes similar
to a high rack made out of concrete, with tower or pit version. This multilevel car parking solution is often particularly
cost-effective in the event of underground structures and even with small foot
print areas, provides parking places up to 30 parking levels high.
The car is driven into one of the transfer areas, picked-up
by a longitudinal pick-up transport system (LAT) which takes the car by means
of a shuttle and vertical lift directly to the provided car park place on the
concrete slab.
Multiparker 760
Multiparker 760 is suitable for construction cubes similar
to a high rack made out of concrete, as tower or pit version. Whenever bigger
floor plan areas are available but project configurations feature less parking
levels; Multiparker 760 captures several hundred parking places per level.
At each level independently operating shuttles, transfer and
park the cars on concrete slab by way of the longitudinal pick-up transport
system (LAT). Short access and operation times are delivered.
