WHY AUTOMATE YOUR
OPERATIONS
Automation provides benefits in terminal
operations both in vessel and landside processes.
Automation is used in terminals of all sizes,
including small and medium-sized.
BENEFITS INCLUDE:
• Reduction of manpower • Reduction of mistakes in
under the cranes and in identification
gate operations
• Improved documentation of
• Increased safety under damage
the cranes
• Faster work cycles due to less
• Increased security due to manual entering of numbers
automatic identification in yard operations
of cargo and assets
• Faster processing at the gates,
• Reduced labor costs higher throughput capacity

VESSEL OPERATIONS YARD OPERATIONS
Automatic container identification and damage Container identification and matching
detection is used when servicing vessels. Automation with container handling equipment

RAIL OPERATIONS TERMINAL PLANNING
Visy Train Gate includes automatic container and railcar identification and damage Visy has a wide range of experience of various types of operations and equipment. That is
inspection upon the train’s arrival and departure. why Visy can offer terminal planning services as early as the terminal’s initial design phase.
These services can include layout proposals, storage capacity estimates, equipment fleet size
It includes railcar and container information with an interface to a TOS or 3rd party estimates, overall cost comparisons and environmental impact estimates. This approach is
management system. cost effective and speeds up the planning process.
Portals spanning over railway track are used to mount equipment for identification and Terminal audits with reports can be made for improving the efficiency of existing operations.
damage detection.
Simulation
A simulation tool is available for optimizing
terminal designs. Simulations help avoiding
mistakes and detecting possible bottlenecks.
A computer model is made of the planned
operations using the actual layout and traffic
data as a basis. Reports are made based
on main KPI’s, such as productivity and
turnaround times.

TECHNOLOGIES
Optical character recognition (OCR)
is used for:
• Container, trailer and railcar ID
• License plates
• Door direction, container location, IMO/IMDG label
identification and classification, seal presence
• All container sizes and oversized cargo units
Artificial intelligence (AI) is used for detecting shapes,
such as vehicles or people.
Line scan cameras are used for damage inspection
images.
Other technologies such as RFID or DGPS are used
when appropriate.
Latest examples of new innovations
by Visy include:
• Visy Area, tracking of road trucks within the
terminal using CCTV cameras
• TopView, OCR system with spreader mounted
cameras
