Q1: Why do transit turnstiles often show “Swipe again” or “Just used”, causing queues?
Older metro turnstiles frequently fail to read cards due to dirty read heads, worn mechanisms, or poor swipe ergonomics, slowing passengers during peak hours.
BOV uses high‑duty readers and mechanisms designed for millions of cycles. We optimize the card swipe area geometry and provide a maintenance schedule for cleaning and part replacement to reduce “stuck at the turnstile” incidents.
Q2: How can we reduce mechanical failures and improve throughput in rail transit gates?
High frequency use, ticket handling errors, and dust can lead to frequent gate failures, slow operation, and passenger frustration.
BOV’s transit turnstiles are built with heavy‑duty motors, robust mechanisms, and modular design for quick part replacement. We help operators define preventive maintenance cycles and provide training to keep lanes available during peak hours.
