ABB crane systems help Rotterdam grow

ABB起重機係統助力鹿特丹港發展

2006-01-16 - Rotterdam, the world’s second largest port by cargo volume, is expanding capacity by 25 percent to meet the global boom in container traffic. ABB is supplying advanced integrated automation and electrical systems for the 76 terminal cranes.

2006-01-16—世界上第二大貨物吞吐量港鹿特丹港正以25%的速度增長以滿足全球集裝箱運輸的飛速增長。ABB為其76台港口起重機提供先進集成自動化和電氣係統

The port of Rotterdam is booming. Container traffic in 2004 grew by 16 percent to 8.3 million twenty-foot equivalent units (TEU), each unit corresponding to a 20-foot long shipping container.

鹿特丹港正在飛速發展，2004年的集裝箱吞吐量上升了16%，達到830萬個標準箱單位（TEU），每個單位對應一個20英尺的船運集裝箱。

With growth in traffic expected to continue, Europe Terminal Operators (ECT) and A.P. Moller - Maersk are building a new container complex that will expand capacity at Rotterdam by an additional two million TEU containers a year.

因人們預計集裝箱的運輸量將持續增長，歐洲港口運營公司（ECT）和A.P.穆勒—馬士基公司正在聯合新建一條集裝箱碼頭，，這樣鹿特丹港每年將可以吞吐多2百萬個TEU的集裝箱。

The new Euromax Terminal will make Rotterdam larger than the combined capacity of its three nearest European rivals – Antwerp, Hamburg and Marseille – and strengthen its position as one of the world’s most important container hubs.

新的Euromax港口將使鹿特丹的年吞吐量比其最近的三個競爭對手—安特衛普、漢堡和馬賽的年吞吐量總和還多，並且使其成為世界上最重要的集裝箱中心之一。

Euromax will feature the most modern technology available: 16 semi-automated quay cranes, 58 fully automatic rail-mounted stacking cranes, two cranes for loading and unloading rail wagons – all equipped with ABB’s advanced sensor, drive and automation technologies – and driverless vehicles for transporting containers from the quay.

Euromax將運用最先進的技術：16台半自動港岸起重機
，58台全自動吊軌堆放起重機
，2台用於裝卸的有軌車的起重機，這些起重機全部安裝了ABB先進的傳感器、驅動和自動化技術，而且更有無人駕駛拖車從碼頭運輸集裝箱。

The storage yard will house 40,000 TEU containers stacked up to five high by automatic stacking cranes with system features like message interface for automated order handling, container recognition for quick identification of containers, target positioning for the speedy location of containers and vehicles, load positioning for accurate container placement, and remote control for truck handling – all of which are key functions for rapid, accurate and safe operation.

堆存碼頭將可以容納4萬個TEU的自動堆放起重機堆存起來的集裝箱。這些起重機具有如下的係統特點：自zi動dong命ming令ling處chu理li信xin息xi界jie麵mian
