OEM Tripod Turnstile Access Control System Factories & Pricelist

Traditional solenoid tripod turnstiles use spring-assisted mechanical indexing where the user must push the arm through friction resistance, leading to rapid mechanical wear on mechanical ratchets. In contrast, BLDC motorized mechanisms detect initial forward pressure and smoothly rotate the arm electronically. This eliminates arm bouncing, operates under 50 decibels, and extends the operational MTBF from 3 million to over 10 million cycles.

Standard tripod turnstile arms range from 500mm to 550mm in length, providing an effective pedestrian passage lane clearance of 550mm to 600mm. Due to leverage physics and rotational torque limitations on the central hub shaft, tripod arms cannot exceed 600mm. For ADA-compliant wheelchair lanes (typically 900mm passage width), integrators should pair a tripod turnstile lane bank with an auxiliary automated swing barrier speed gate.

Our tripods feature an internal electromagnetic mechanical catch that remains energized during standard operation. In the event of building power loss or an active dry-contact fire alarm trigger from the main security panel, the catch disengages instantly, causing the top horizontal arm to drop flush against the housing via gravity. This provides an unobstructed, compliant emergency egress route per NFPA and CE directives.

Yes. As an OEM-focused manufacturer, we offer full chassis modification services. Customers provide the CAD drawings or physical sample units of their preferred readers (e.g., face recognition terminals, barcode scanners, card collectors, ESD units), and our factory laser-cuts custom mounting brackets, tempered glass windows, and internal cabling passages directly into the housing.

Standard bridge-type and vertical tripod models have a manufacturing lead time of 7–10 days for sample orders (1–5 units) and 15–20 working days for full 20ft/40ft container orders. Units are packed in export-certified fumigation-free wooden crates lined with high-density EPE protective foam to guarantee zero transit damage via ocean freight, air cargo, or cross-border rail.
