How is RFID technology used in ports?
Vehicle management in traditional port terminals is mainly achieved through information management systems combined with manual control and non-real-time data entry. Its management and scheduling methods have problems such as low efficiency, high labor costs, high error rates, and poor real-time performance.
Smart ports are based on modern infrastructure equipment, with the core of deep integration of new generation information technologies such as cloud computing, big data, Internet of Things, mobile Internet, and intelligent control with port transportation business, and driven by innovation in port transportation organization services. With the guarantee of complete systems, mechanisms, laws and regulations, the optimal allocation of port resources can be achieved at a higher level. A new modern port transportation format that meets the requirements of multi-level, agile, and high-quality port transportation services and has distinctive features such as production intelligence, management wisdom, service flexibility, and strong support.
Driven by emerging technologies such as autonomous driving, artificial intelligence, blockchain, and 5G, innovative applications such as automated terminals and smart factories are emerging one after another. Ports are gradually transforming and upgrading towards automation and intelligence, which also puts forward higher requirements for port vehicle management.
In the loading and unloading process of various bulk cargo terminals, RFID technology has effectively improved and improved the port's vehicle automation management level. It speeds up the circulation of goods transportation, shortens the circulation cycle, and reduces management costs. Through the Internet of Things, RFID technology, artificial intelligence, 5G, big data and other technologies, we have achieved extensive connectivity and comprehensive awareness of terminal equipment and full-process operations. While improving efficiency and controlling costs, it also ensures safety, protects the environment, and promotes the sustainable green development of the port.
At the port terminal, the traffic flow is very large. We use the vehicle dispatching system to ensure that vehicles can handle business in an orderly manner. By planning the vehicle operation route in advance and automatically guiding the vehicle to the specified node through queuing and calling, the pickup, unloading, material inspection and other services can be completed in an orderly manner. This has greatly shortened the waiting time for drivers, effectively controlled the number of vehicles arriving at the port terminal, eliminated random parking of vehicles, alleviated on-site traffic pressure, and improved vehicle traffic efficiency.
Based on RFID technology, we promote the informatization and automation of port vehicle management and create a "safe, environmentally friendly, and efficient" smart port, which can effectively improve port operation efficiency and management levels. Through RFID technology, video surveillance and other technologies, the location, driving speed, path and dynamics of vehicles entering the port are collected. Mainly through RFID tags, each truck entering and leaving the port is bound, and the basic information of the vehicle, customs declaration information, cargo information and other business details are recorded in detail. Through the comprehensive arrangement of RFID readers, RFID antennas and other equipment, data on trucks entering and leaving the port can be automatically collected in real time. The relevant vehicle information is displayed in real time on the monitoring screen, and the vehicle's running trajectory and regional location information are grasped in real time. It also sends early warning information to operators in a timely manner to improve port operation efficiency and ensure the safety of goods at port terminals.
Generally speaking, the purpose of building smart ports is to realize the transformation and upgrading of traditional ports. However, the operational goals of smart ports and traditional ports are the same, but the means of implementation are richer and the technology content is higher. Smart ports can not only improve production efficiency and significantly reduce production costs, but also achieve the goal of green and low-carbon development. Therefore, building smart ports is of great significance to achieving green and sustainable development of ports.
