Product catalog summary
Introduction to Automated RTGs
Automated Rubber-Tired Gantry (RTG) cranes are introduced as a significant advancement in container terminal operations, offering benefits such as increased safety, productivity, and predictability. The document emphasizes the potential for existing RTG-based terminals to integrate automation without extensive infrastructure changes.
ARTG System Overview
The ARTG system includes Konecranes 16-wheel RTGs equipped with Active Load Control and Autosteering. The system offers various power options and requires minimal infrastructure changes. Key components include a Remote Operating Station (ROS), truck guidance systems, and intelligent gates.
Technical Specifications and Features
The ARTG system is designed to handle variations in yard surfaces and container stacking areas. It features a robust steel structure and Active Load Control technology to eliminate container sway. The system supports automated operations with a focus on tolerance to local variations and rough surfaces.
Operational Process
The ARTG system allows for modular and terminal-specific designs for truck traffic and safety. Operations are side-fed, with limited gantry movement, and remote operators can manage multiple ARTGs simultaneously. The system's technology is proven in Automated RMG terminals.
Performance and Technology
Key performance metrics include maximum lifting heights and speeds for hoisting and gantry travel. The system incorporates advanced technologies such as dual antenna DGPS Autosteering, anti-collision systems, and various power options, including cable reels and diesel engines with fuel-saving technology.
Conclusion
Konecranes presents the ARTG system as a revolutionary step in yard automation, leveraging proven technologies to enhance terminal operations. The document highlights the company's global presence and commitment to innovation in lifting solutions.
