Facing the Port of Singapore, which is building the world's largest automated port, Tuas Port, how will SIPG meet the challenge? Building a new automated terminal is labor-intensive and time-consuming. The automation transformation of traditional container terminals is a direction in which Shanghai Port is gathering strength. Its transformation solution providers also have a window of opportunity to accumulate valuable experience. Tianji Technology has been deeply involved in the port industry for more than ten years and has achieved fruitful results in the field of smart ports.Tianji Technology was invited to attend the "2022 Smart Port Conference" and revealed the automation upgrade and transformation solution it created for a container terminal of Shanghai International Port Group. From technical route verification to practical application, the path taken by the world's largest port will become smart Sample of port construction.
Automation and intelligence of all processes and scenarios in the terminal
The advantage of a new automated terminal is obvious. It is that the two major pain points of traditional terminals are targeted at the beginning of the design: safety and efficiency. The solution is to automate the entire process of the terminal.The core of testing the traditional terminal automation upgrade solution is whether it can realize the automation and intelligence of the terminal's entire process and scenario.
Tianji Technology uses 5Gindustrial Internet as a carrier and utilizes advanced information technologies such as 5G, artificial intelligence, Internet of Things, cloud computing, and big data to create automated transformation and intelligent upgrade solutions for traditional container terminals. The solution covers full automation of terminals and bridges. Transformation, intelligent upgrading of quay cranes, intelligent disassembly and assembly of locking machine systems, intelligent terminals for internal collection cards, intelligent management APP for external collection cards, intelligent drone inspections, and a new terminal intelligent equipment control system (IECS), etc. doneFull coverage of terminal production.
During automated production, IECS executes the operation instructions generated by TOS, intelligently schedules port machinery equipment such as quay cranes, yard bridges, intelligent disassembly and assembly locking machines, and manned/unmanned container trucks to work together, and controls various port machinery equipment and horizontal collection systems. Cards carry out unified management, unified scheduling, collaborative production, and mixed operations; after the production tasks are completed, IECS will feedback the execution results to TOS, completing automated closed-loop production of automatic issuance of operation instructions and intelligent execution of port machinery equipment, and at the same time, achieving equipment-based The execution capability drives the intelligent scheduling of equipment, and the equipment execution results drive the automatic adjustment of plans, truly realizing end-to-end operation automation and intelligent perception of all elements and processes of the container terminal.
Tianji Technology’s smart port solution proposes a domestic technology route for the digital upgrade of the container terminal’s entire business, and realizes the terminal’s “three complete and three hybrid” production operations, that is, the automation and intelligence of the terminal’s entire process, all scenarios, and all-area artificial intelligence. Or the mixed dispatching of automatically controlled port equipment and manned trucks or unmanned trucks, the mixed operation of automated quay cranes or fully automated yard bridges and manned trucks or unmanned truck trucks, artificial quay cranes or artificial yard bridges can also be combined with manned trucks Mixed truck collection or unmanned collection trucks, mixed driving and traffic management of external trucks, internal trucks and unmanned trucks, real-time monitoring of Hong Kong production operations and equipment operations, status awareness and visual management of various production factors at the terminal.
Producing and transforming at the same time
In addition to full coverage of production factors, largeAutomation transformation of traditional terminals often has a unique and difficult-to-achieve requirement, which is to not affect production as much as possible.In Shanghai Port, which operates an average of 130,000 TEUs per day, even one less day is a loss. When Tianji Technology's traditional container terminal automation transformation and intelligent upgrade solutions were implemented at the SIPG terminal, in the early stages of project construction, SIPG required the transformation to be close to the actual production scenario:
1. Does not affect production
2. The current terminal operation technology remains unchanged
3. No regional hard isolation
4. Transformation of original equipment (traditional single-car quay crane and traditional 4-rope RTG)
5. Venue facilities will not be adjusted
6. Mixed use of trucks (unmanned driving trucks internal trucks external trucks)
7. Driving without lane separation and operating without lane separation
Faced with almost stringent demands,Tianji Technology has taken a new approach and customized a set of implementation plans for SIPG Group that “produce while transforming, debugging while going online”, realizing the automation of the entire process of container terminal operations.Specifically, it covers related operations such as loading, unloading, loading and unloading boxes, transferring boxes, and inspection.
As long as the path is correct, you will be familiar with it. Currently, the SIPG terminal automation upgrade project has been carried out in two phases: The first phase project was delivered to the terminal in December 2021 for normal production operations, and mainly completed the barge operation of a complete operation road. , the automation upgrade of two large container areas; the second phase of the project is about to be delivered, which mainly involves the automated production operations of a large ship and four operating lanes, the automation transformation and intelligent upgrade of the entire terminal, the entire process, and the entire scene, and other related work.
Undertaking the Shanghai Port Container Terminal Automation Transformation Project, Tianji Technology relies on the foundation it has laid in the field of smart ports and uses it as it comes.It has dismantled the pain points and difficulties faced in the process of automating production and transformation of large-scale container terminals. It is about to complete the leap from the first stage to the second stage, from running through the personalized automated operation of one barge and one operation line to completing four lines for a large ship. Automated operations on the operating roads, intelligent control of equipment throughout the site, upgrading and optimizing IECS task optimization for a larger operating range, port machine dispatching, collaborative operations, path planning, real-time navigation, traffic control, safety management, etc., have created a container terminal Samples of automated transformation and intelligent upgrade.
Port Circle (ID: gangkouquan) believes that there is not only one way to automate the transformation of large container terminals, but the pain points, difficulties and transformation needs are very similar. The commercial implementation of the automation transformation of traditional container terminals in Shanghai Port has proven the effectiveness of Tianji Technology’s automation transformation solution. success. Amid the craze for smart port construction, Tianji Technology has come up with a Chinese plan that can be replicated and promoted.
