Manufacturers of intelligent swing turnstiles analyze the reasons why intelligent swing turnstiles are continuously gaining market acceptance.

Smart swing gates are a type of pedestrian access control equipment; their notable features include fast opening, safety, and convenience.  They are primarily used in places with high pedestrian traffic and are currently considered an ideal high-traffic management access control device. Smart swing gates are commonly seen in many places such as subways, scenic spots, train stations, office buildings, and stadiums. When combined with smart cards, they can implement offline ticketing management system functions, enabling unattended management of personnel entry and exit.

Turnstiles were the earliest access control devices on the market. With continuous development, swing gates, flap barriers, sliding gates, and speed gates have emerged. Today, we will conduct a simple analysis of swing gates and turnstiles.
Differences between Smart Swing Gates and Turnstiles:

1. Difference in working method: Smart swing gates use a motor, while turnstiles (except for fully automatic ones) use a combination of optocoupler reset + mechanical reset and manual pushing.

2. Difference in working mechanism: The opening speed is different. The opening and closing time of smart swing gates can be controlled to approximately 0.5 seconds, while the opening and closing time of turnstiles is approximately 1 second.

3. Difference in passage time: Due to their design, smart swing gates are unobstructed when open, allowing people to pass quickly, reaching a speed of 1.5-2 seconds per person. The maximum passage speed of turnstiles (actual calculation) is 2.5-3 seconds per person.

4. Difference in passage function: Smart swing gates can accommodate small suitcases and other items (by dragging), which is not possible with turnstiles due to their design.

5. Difference in price: Turnstiles are entry-level products in the access control gate market, while smart swing gates are mid-range. Both offer good anti-tailgating features, but there are significant differences in passage speed and user experience, as well as price.

After comparing smart swing gates and turnstiles, let's summarize how to choose the best access control gate equipment. First, consider the pedestrian traffic volume of the location where it will be used. For areas with high pedestrian traffic, smart turnstiles are recommended. However, for areas with lower traffic and where people are not carrying luggage or other large items, tripod turnstiles are a more cost-effective option.
