After years of development and testing, Magnetic Autocontrol announces the release of its new pedestrian entrance control MPP Turnstiles and MPR Retractable Wing Barriers powered by MHTMTM drive technology. Product benefits and features include maintenance-free, noise-free and multi-million cycle operation. Additional advancements include a new Automatic Return Drop Arm option for the MPP waist high turnstile.

Rockledge, FL -- (ReleaseWire) -- 07/21/2006 -- Magnetic Autocontrol, also known as Magnetic Automation Corp in the USA, continues to pave the way in product innovations with new pedestrian entrance control MPP Turnstiles and MPR Retractable Wing Barriers powered by MHTMTM drive technology.

After taking a long hard look at the available products and technology on the market, the Magnetic Autocontrol Group wasn't satisfied. In order to maintain the quality and reliability of its vehicle and pedestrian entrance control products worldwide, Magnetic's design team developed a bulletproof drive solution called the MHTMTM (Magnetic High Torque Motor). Linear actuators, gears, pulleys, belts and chains are now a thing of the past.

The MHTMTM is a gearless drive system featuring maintenance-free, noise-free and multi-million cycle operation. Headaches commonly associated with current entrance control solutions no longer exist and downtime is eliminated. Safety concerns are eliminated as well due to the lowest impact forces, even at higher operation speeds. For example, many waist high turnstiles have a high "spring like" force toward the end of rotation which could potentially injure children. In addition, forced entry is eliminated and ultimate repeatability is accomplished in each pedestrian barrier using this design.

Magnetic Autocontrol's MHTMTM drive system is incorporated in all of the new pedestrian entrance control MPP Turnstiles and MPR Retractable Wing Barriers.

Applications for these products include stadiums, metro transit facilities, amusement parks, office buildings, government facilities and many other locations requiring physical security barriers for access control.

Subsequently, the drive system isn't the only new feature for the MPP waist high turnstiles. A new option which sets these turnstiles apart from all the rest is an Automatic Return Drop Arm. Convenience and security are maintained because personnel are not required to manually lift the drop arm back into position after disengaged.

Furthermore, the primary focus of Magnetic Autocontrol has always been its customers. Without them, the need for high quality advanced technology entrance control solutions simply would not exist.

Rockledge, FL -- (ReleaseWire) -- 07/12/2006 -- Magnetic Automation Corporation, also known as Magnetic Autocontrol worldwide, announces the release of its new automatic immigration barriers with MHTM technology. With over ten years of experience in automatic immigration barrier technology, Magnetic continues to lead the way once again in high security entrance control for airports, sea ports, international borders, high profile manufacturing plants and government facilities.

Registered Traveler is a subscription based service where users, often frequent flyers, pay a yearly fee ($80-$120) in exchange for convenience and shorter processing times. To subscribe to the service, users are required to provide various biometric data (i.e. fingerprint, iris) and other applicable personal information. To use a designated Registered Traveler lane, users insert a supplied card and verify their identity typically through specialized readers for fingerprint, iris and/or face recognition.

Seeing as how the primary goal of the RT program is not only to improve US airport security, but to increase the flow of passengers through security and minimize frustrations, the Magnetic group announces the release of its latest automatic immigration barriers featuring new MHTM and passenger detection technology. Having pioneered automatic immigration lanes in Singapore back in 1996, Magnetic has continued to lead the way for over ten years. Other installation sites include Australia, Hong Kong, Dubai, Malaysia, Cambodia, Burma, Abu Dhabi, China, Nigeria, Jordan and others.

Each year, millions of passengers pass through the automatic lanes for security processing. Processing speeds per passenger, including biometric verification, range from 5-12 seconds each. Excess and/or overworked personnel and their associated expenses are no longer required as one person can monitor several lanes at a time. Security is also enhanced because the attention span of trained personnel is significantly more focused.

Automatic lanes with identification confirmation for entrance control can be used for a wide number of applications. Applications include airports, sea ports, government facilities, high profile manufacturing sites, border crossings, rail stations, power plants, distribution centers and other secured entry/exit points. Available options include visual signals, alarms, LCD monitors, card readers, iris readers, fingerprint readers, face recognition systems, custom detection systems and many others.

Rockledge, FL -- (ReleaseWire) -- 06/29/2006 -- Magnetic Autocontrol releases new Sally Port Vehicle Barriers and is chosen as key supplier for Frankfurt Airport based on quality and the ability to provide custom entrance control solutions for high security applications. Applications for Magnetic Autocontrol Sally Port Vehicle Barriers include airports, seaports, border crossings, government facilities and other high profile targets.

In an effort to decrease both terrorist and illegal immigration activities, businesses and governments worldwide are constantly evaluating and implementing new entrance control solutions. Solutions may include custom software, smart cards, card readers, biometric readers, detection devices, physical security barriers and/or many other options. In some cases, governments have gone as far to issue directives, such as HSPD-12 and EU 1138/2004, for increased security and appropriate passage at select locations.

In response to the EU 1138/2004 directive, which requires vehicles, flight crew, other personnel, personal belongings, vehicles and other objects entering/exiting airports to be searched, Frankfurt Airport looked to Magnetic Autocontrol as the vendor of choice. The decision was made based on Magnetic's worldwide history of providing the highest quality vehicle barriers, service and support. The 160 barriers were also selected due to their performance in extreme weather demands of rain, snow and low temperatures. Furthermore, the barriers were completed within a very tight deadline of 15 days.

Each Sally Port Vehicle Barrier lane consists of four special version MIB40 gates. Two gates are installed opposite one another at each end of the vehicle lane. When closed, the area between the two sets of barriers is referred to as an "air lock" or secured zone. The secured area can be used for required vehicle checks, explosives detection, biometric identity confirmation and other screening processes by security personnel and/or automatic systems. For administering lane usage permissions, additional hardware such as card readers, keypads, fingerprint readers and other equipment may be installed outside of each lane. Examples of smart cards used for lane passage may include TWIC (Transportation Workers Identity Credential), CLEAR (Registered Traveler) and FLO (Fast Lane Option – Registered Traveler) cards. For vehicle detection and safety, induction loops are installed beneath the pavement. The Frankfurt Airport installation example consisted of over 29,000 feet of induction loops for vehicle detection.

Applications for Magnetic Autocontrol Sally Port Vehicle Barriers will continue to increase as the world moves forward since the devastation of 9/11. Controlled vehicle checkpoints have become a mandatory procedure in many security operations. They are used to identify threats such as the transportation of hazardous chemicals, warfare, suspected/known terrorists and illegal immigrants. Magnetic Autocontrol Sally Port Vehicle Barriers are the ideal solution for seaports, airports, border crossings, government facilities, nuclear plants and other high profile locations. When integrated with credentialing service providers, the opportunities are endless.
