Automatic Ticket Issuing Machine
These machines automatically issue encoded magnetic tickets at the
entrance of motorways and are fitted with a central unit to control
all the lane peripherals (barriers, traffic lights, non-stop toll
collection systems) and to handle data exchange with the plaza computer
system.
Automatic Magnetic Card Machines
Thanks to such equipment, tolls can be paid automatically
using credit cards. The central unit controls all of the lane peripherals
and gathers data to be sent to the plaza computer system. This is
a very User - Friendly device that can be fitted with a synthesised
voice system.

Manual
Toll Terminals
This equipment enables manual toll collection by toll tellers at the
motorway exit thanks to a desk and specialized screens and keyboards.
Fitted with a central unit, the manual toll terminal ensures not only
the storage and transmission of transaction data to the plaza computer
system, but also the management of various lane peripherals (systems
for determining vehicle classification, traffic signals, barriers,
and non-stop toll collection systems).
Plaza Computer Systems and Central Systems
GEA is at the cutting edge of development in this field where specialized
knowledge of computer applications is crucial. These plaza systems
are central to toll systems and ensure real-time surveillance, communication
with toll tellers or users and centralisation of data. |
