Automation and digitalisation of the port area at HavelPort Berlin
Located directly on the Havel Canal at the gates of Berlin, the port is the ideal supplier for the German capital region. The port is also directly connected to all Hamburg terminals via the inland waterway shuttle. The project aims to overcome current difficulties in inland ports, promote innovation and increase competitiveness.
Goals
- Establishment of a digital test field for port innovations and optimisation of work processes
- Laying fibre optic cables and setting up a 5G network with several antennas in the port area
- Enabling (partially) autonomous driving maneuvers and automating the route between the port and the CT terminal
- Optimisation of truck handling by setting up a networked truck weighing system
- Real-time tracking of storage quantities and bulk goods monitoring
- Up to 60% more weighing of bulk goods and other goods per year
- Increased efficiency of port personnel and savings in personnel costs
- Strengthening competitiveness through innovative solutions
