New tech makes Tianjin Port smarter 新技术让天津港更智能

A few days ago, Tianjin Port Group was officially approved by the Tianjin Municipal Transportation Commission to expand the port autonomous driving demonstration zone (phase I) area to Tianjin Port Eurasia International Container Terminal. With this as a sign, Tianjin Port Group has further accelerated the research and development of the key technology of intelligent horizontal transportation, which will have far-reaching significance for the application and promotion of the whole process transformation scheme of traditional terminals. In December 2023, the construction area of Tianjin Port Autonomous Driving Demonstration Zone (Phase I) successfully passed the acceptance. The demonstration area has realized the whole process of automated terminal operation, which has achieved remarkable results in improving operation efficiency, reducing operation energy consumption, and saving operation costs. The demonstration area is oriented to the horizontal transportation operation scenario of the port, and integrates multiple links such as the application scale of autonomous vehicles, the automation transformation of terminal equipment, the construction of supporting system platforms, and the establishment of safety management systems and technical standard systems. On this basis, Tianjin Port Group applied for the expansion of the construction area of the Port Autonomous Driving Demonstration Zone (Phase I) to Tianjin Port Eurasia International Container Terminal at the end of 2023, and successfully obtained approval. Tianjin Port Eurasia International Container Terminal is a traditional container terminal, with 3 professional container berths, with a full-hall layout, equipped with 11 quay cranes and 37 field bridges. The shoreline of the wharf is 1,100 meters long and has the ability to receive and unload 200,000-ton container ships around the clock. The expansion area of the port autonomous driving demonstration zone (phase I) will take the lead in transforming the N9 berth and 01D-06D yard of Eurasia International Container Terminal to realize the full-process automation of one berth. The construction of the expansion area of the demonstration area will re-plan the operation process and supporting facilities of the Eurasia International Container Terminal, and study the full-process automated operation process based on the remote control quay crane of a single trolley + automated four-rope tire yard bridge + horizontal transportation robot (ART), as well as the layout process of charging area, PB buffer zone and unlocking station, so as to meet all the application scenarios of full-process automated operation, and actively explore the application of limited mixed traffic scenarios, and finally form a safe driving of internal and external container trucks and friendly interaction between vehicles and roads. and an operating environment suitable for the safe operation of autonomous horizontal transport equipment. At the same time, through iterative optimization of the technology of autonomous driving horizontal transportation equipment, it can gradually adapt to the whole scenario, whole chain and full cycle of traditional container terminal operations, and build a new ecology for the application of autonomous driving horizontal transportation equipment. In the next step, Tianjin Port Group will deeply focus on the landing application scenarios of port autonomous driving, gradually improve the construction of intelligent transportation systems integrating autonomous driving, further improve the deployment of 5G+ mobile communication networks and cloud control platforms in ports, combine advanced technologies such as artificial intelligence, Internet of Things, and big data to effectively improve the production and operation level of the port, boost the digital transformation of Tianjin Port to a new level, contribute to the construction of Tianjin North International Shipping Hub, and contribute to the construction of the international shipping hub in northern Tianjin. The intelligent upgrade provides the "Chinese solution" with the best operation efficiency, and provides strong support for the construction of an innovative country and the implementation of the strategy of becoming a transportation power.
