Turnstile (GATE) is a kind of channel blocking equipment. Its most basic core is mainly channel management hardware. It is mainly used in entrance and exit scenarios such as urban railroads, office buildings, factories, etc. It has too much function and application scenarios with access control systems. Similarities, so many customers will be confused and questioned, is the access control system an access control system? What is the difference between an access control gate and an access control system?

Zecheng Intelligent will share with you, what is the difference between an access control gate and an access control system? Let everyone understand the working principle of the gate.

What is the difference between an access control gate and an access control system?
Gates are a kind of mechanical hardware, mainly including three-roll gates, swing gates, wing gates, translation gates, full-height turnstiles and other channel equipment; access control, here refers to the access control system software, is a complete set of entrance and exit control management system.
From this perspective, the access control system actually includes such hardware as turnstiles and access control machines. The installation of access control gates requires supporting applications of access gates and access control controllers in order to achieve the purpose of intelligent management of entrances and exits.
To put it simply, access control gates belong to access control.
Working principle of access control gate
The access control gate machine organically integrates mechanical, electronic, microprocessor control and various identification technologies. Through the selection of different access control systems, visitor systems, biometric systems, etc., multi-functional entrance and exit management requirements are realized. The main working principle is It is to control the movement of the blocking body by manpower, and the mechanical limit to control the stop of the movement. The semi-automatic type uses electromagnets to control the movement and stop of the movement, and the fully automatic type uses a motor to control the movement and stop of the movement. By controlling the movement and stop of the movement, the opening and closing of the blocking body is further controlled.
When a person passes the pedestrian swing gate, if the person does not leave, the buzzer will alarm through the infrared detector and the door remains closed. If the door is opened, unauthorized pedestrians enter the detection area of the door body and the gate is controlled. The gate will be closed immediately.
