Gate AutomationAutomation

Some Numbers

• 180 Camera OCR portals operational• 180 Camera OCR portals operational worldwide

• First system (2000) still in use

• More than 150 kiosks installed

• Peak: 600 trucks/hour• Peak: 600 trucks/hour

• Biggest site: 4.000 in/4.000 out



Gate Automation

Objectives

• For the truck driver– Decrease truck turnaround times – Improve reliability of truck turn times (peaks!)

• For the terminal– Less Gate personnel– More control on gate flux (no peaks)– More accurate data– Smaller gate area with higher gate volume

In the Gate lanes again the truckers-ID card is used and the linked OCR data is retrieved

Physical implementationSolution 3: Trucker-ID RFID long distance readers The OCR Portal links OCR data to Vehicle-ID card. In the Gate Lanes the Trucker-ID card is read, via a cross index table (Truckers-ID <–>

h l ) h d OC d dVehicle-ID) the corresponding OCR data is retrieved.

Canopy

• Sun shelter (roof – canopy)– Blocks majority of sun

– Better control of lighting conditions

• Improves lifetime of system

• Higher minimal accuracy rates
