NAPREDNE TEHNOLOGIJE NA KONTEJNERSKIH TERMINALIH: RAZVOJ, IMPLEMENTACIJA IN UČINKI

Boršič, Martin (author), Twrdy, Elen (mentor)

Magistrska naloga se osredotoča na vlogo naprednih tehnologij v kontejnerskih terminalih. V ospredju je izpostavljen pomen avtomatizacije in robotike kot vodilne tehnologije na kontejnerskih terminalih. Kot pomemben del avtomatizacije in robotike so predstavljena sodobna transportno manipulacijska sredstva, med katerimi izstopajo AGV (Automated Guided Vehicle), ASC/ARMG (Automated Stacking Crane/Automated Rail Mounted Gantry Crane) in ASSC (Automated Ship to Shore Crane). Na koncu je podana anonimna anketa, s katero želim ugotoviti, kako zaposleni v logističnem sektorju poznajo nove trende in kaj lahko pričakujemo v prihodnje od le teh. Cilj naloge je preučiti razvoj, delovanje, učinke teh tehnologij na varnost, stroškovno učinkovitost, produktivnost in učinkovitost. Kontejnerski terminal je prostor, kjer se opravlja pretovor kontejnerjev z ladje na terminal in obratno. Na terminalih se kontejnerji skladiščijo s pomočjo ustreznih manipulativnih naprav, nato pa pripravljajo za nadaljnjo odpremo z različnimi transportnimi sredstvi. Njihov razvoj je povezan z uvedbo kontejnerja in procesom globalizacije (Twrdy in Stojaković, 2024). V prihodnje bodo kontejnerski terminali soočeni z rastjo pretovora, zahtevami po večji učinkovitosti, varnosti in trajnostnem delovanju. Pomembno vlogo bodo pri tem imele napredne tehnologije, kot so umetna inteligenca, internet stvari, robotika in avtonomna vozila. Te tehnologije omogočajo optimizacijo vseh procesov na terminalih, izboljšano sledljivost ter zmanjšanje onesnaževanja okolja.

Abstract

The master's thesis focuses on the role of advanced technologies in container terminals. It highlights the importance of automation and robotics as leading technologies in container terminals. As an important part of automation and robotics, modern transport and handling equipment is presented, among which AGV (Automated Guided Vehicle), ASC/ARMG (Automated Stacking Crane/Automated Rail Mounted Gantry Crane) and ASSC (Automated Ship to Shore Crane) stand out. Finally, an anonymous survey is provided to determine how employees in the logistics sector are aware of new trends and what we can expect from them in the future. The aim of the thesis is to examine the development, operation, and effects of these technologies on safety, cost-effectiveness, productivity, and efficiency. Container terminal is a place where containers are transferred from ships to the terminal and vice versa. At terminals, containers are stored using appropriate handling equipment and then prepared for further shipment by various means of transport. Their development is linked to the introduction of containers and the process of globalization (Twrdy and Stojaković, 2024). In the future, container terminals will face growth in transshipment, demands for greater efficiency, safety, and sustainable operation. Advanced technologies such as artificial intelligence, the Internet of Things, robotics, and autonomous vehicles will play an important role in this. These technologies enable the optimization of all processes at terminals, improved traceability, and reduced environmental pollution.
