Automatic ticket gates

Japanese: 自動出改札 - じどうしゅっかいさつ
Automatic ticket gates
In railways and other transportation, the sale of tickets (ticket issuing), inspection and punching (ticket gates), and collection (ticket collection) are some of the main passenger service operations, and automated machines such as automatic ticket vending machines, ticket (including commuter pass) printing and issuing machines, automatic ticket gates, automatic fare-adjusted ticket vending machines, and fare-adjusted ticket printing and issuing machines have been put to practical use. The history of the introduction of these ticket issuing and issuing machines is long, with the first ticket vending machines being a manual entrance ticket vending machine at Tokyo Station of the Japanese National Railways (now JR) in 1929, and the first ticket gates being a turn-type ticket gate (using 10-sen cupronickel coins) when the subway opened between Ueno and Asakusa in December 1927.
