Beibu Gulf Port - Qinzhou, China
In March, Camco Technologies successfully completed its installation works at Beibu Gulf Port in Qinzhou, China. Back in December 2020, Camco was chosen for the initial phase of the STS crane and gate automation at the fully automated Beibu Golf Port terminal.
Following the successful completion of phase 1, which included deploying four OCR gate portals and five STS crane BoxCatcher systems, Camco secured the phase 2 crane and gate automation project. Under the new contract, two additional truck OCR portals have been added to the existing four. Additionally, seven new STS cranes are now part of the automated system.
Advanced Camera Systems for Precision
Each STS crane is equipped with a pair of camera systems: two BoxCatcher systems register all container moves when hoisted through the crane's frontal legs, while platform cameras capture container moves onto the platform. A third set of cameras checks the Internal Transport Vehicle (ITV) carrying the container.
Maintaining Optimal Performance
To ensure optimal performance in maritime conditions, the BoxCatcher system is equipped with the BoxCatcher Washing Station. Given the challenges of salt and dust, similar to those faced by vehicles, the Washing Station cleans the BoxCatcher screens at regular, configurable intervals.
