Chapter 6.5 – Container Terminal Design and Equipment
A flexible piece of equipment that can be used for all intermodal operations, such as loading/unloading railcars and trucks and stacking containers up to three in height, depending
Equipment and Operations in Container Port Terminal
In this paper we describe and classify the main logistics processes and operations in container terminals and present a survey of methods for their optimization.
Foldable shipping containers an answer to port congestion?
We design foldable intermodal shipping containers that exceed ISO and CSC standards, and the systems needed to fold them standing upright in bundles, safely and quickly.
Automated Container Terminals and Ports
Optimized container storage: The 26 storage blocks in the Terminal Altenwerder are each handled in parallel by two gantry cranes on rails –
Design Framework for a Modular Floating
In this paper, we propose the implementation of a floating, modular, platform that can act as an additional terminal of a port, with the
Automated container handling in port terminals
Multiple automation container terminals operate and more are in development, presenting a grand-scale motion control opportunity. Shipping containers revolutionized the
Design Framework for a Modular Floating Container Terminal
In this paper, we propose the implementation of a floating, modular, platform that can act as an additional terminal of a port, with the aim of expanding its current container
Large Container Handling Systems-5
The automation challenge has been in the part of the terminal where the containers are stacked, called the block. One end of the block services the ships being loaded and unloaded, and the

Foldable shipping containers an answer to port congestion?
Your Professional background?What Causes ''Empty Running''?Who Inspires You?Empty containers clog roads and ship terminals, causing port congestion and leaving little space to unload ships. This then forces many ships to wait offshore, wasting resources and slowing the supply chain to a crawl. The problem disappears only as the ships sail away.See more on supplychaindigital Author: Sean AshcroftPort Economics, Management and Policy

What Are Foldable Containers For Shipping Cargo?
Folding and unfolding of such containers take only ten minutes and four folded containers are connected or ''bundled'' together to form a single unit. These bundled single
