Lessons Learnt
23
• Nothing is as simple as it seems
• Keep the “Total Process” in mind
• Detect bottleneck as soon as possible
• “Fingerspitzegefüll” is hard to automate at same performance
• Future proof technologies
Future Plans
24
• Growth, growth, growth…
• Up to 60 cranes
• Up to 180 straddle carriers
• Further increase of Level of Automation (RMG/AGV/SC/CRANE)
• Intellgent Units (IoT) / Vendor Independant / Middleware Elimination
• Further standardization using open architecture of OPC UA
• More centralised data / Better data usage / Better resource usage
