Qingdao Port: From the first automation dock in Asia to the refresher of the world record

China Youth Net Qingdao, August 17th (Reporter Su Xiqiang) "Automated pier is not exclusive to Westerners. Foreigners can do it. We Chinese can not only do it, but also do it better!" This is Shandong Shandong Zhang Liangang, the deputy general manager of the Hongdao Qingdao Port International Company and the leader of the "Lian Steel Innovation Team", once made an oath.

From May 11, 2017, Asia's first true automated container terminal was born in Qingdao Port, Shandong Port, Qingdao Port has not only created global low -cost, short -cycle, full intelligence, high efficiency, safer, zero emissions, zero emissions. The construction of a fully automated terminal is preceded, and it also surpasses the average efficiency of the single -pier single machine in the world by 50%, and the loading and unloading efficiency continues to refresh the world record.

The 9th time of the automation dock loading and unloading efficiency world record

Refresh the world record! Not long ago, in the "Dexiang Xu Ming" wheel operation of Qingdao Port, Shandong Port, the average single -machine operation efficiency of the automation dock bridge crane reached 60.18 natural box/hour, and the maximum stand -alone operating efficiency of the bridge crane reached 67.76 natural box/hour. Institute of 14.2%in one fell swoop, and the ninth refresh automation terminal loading and unloading efficiency world record. Only 3 months have been refreshed from the last world record.

There is such a group of people behind the world record "frequency brushing": they rely on independent innovation and insert the wings of technology for China's docks. They are the "Steel Innovation Team" of Qingdao Port, Shandong Port.

The Qingdao Port, located in the coast of the Yellow Sea, is like a shining pearl. Between the blue sea and blue sky, the large docks and yard production operations flowed, but none of the workers were at the scene. 16 blue automated bridge hanging standing pier, always loaded and unloaded containers from the global giant wheels, 76 high -speed rail hanging on the stacks shuttle, 83 automatic guide vehicles flow freely, weigh tens of tons, weigh tens of tons The container was lightly grabbed and stacked by lightweight, and was transported by the container truck to all parts of the country. The Shandong Port Qingdao Port fully automated container terminal is located here.

Foreign walls, vowed to build Chinese people's own automation pier

Time back back to May 11, 2017, the world's leading and first truly automated container terminal in Asia was born in Qingdao Port, Shandong Port. 3 and a half years.

In 1983, Zhang Lianang graduated from Wuhan Water Transport Institute (predecessor of Wuhan University of Science and Technology) and graduated from electrical automation, allocating to the Qingdao Port Skills Office at that time.

Less than 10 months after entering Hong Kong, the 23 -year -old young man took the initiative to give up the posts of people envied by everyone, signed up to participate in the construction of the first container berth in Qingdao Port -52 berths. Fate.

In 2013, the project team of Qingdao Port Automation Wharf sounded the "assembly number". At that time, Zhang Liangang, 53, was ordered to be the leader of the "Qingdao Port Automation Wharf Preparation Team". Eight experts in Qingdao Port IT, processes, equipment, civil construction and other aspects of Qingdao Port units gathered together, and began a difficult trek in impacting the high point of science and technology system in the world.

At the beginning of the project, the members of the project team did not even see the automation dock. Zhang Liangang led everyone to the Netherlands, Britain, Germany, Spain and other foreign automated terminals to inspect the "scriptures". When investigating, they could only look at it from a distance. "San silent", did not obtain the "True Scriptures". "The conditions for foreign countries are very harsh. They require software and hardware to be bundled for sales.

"Automated docks are not exclusive to Westerners. Foreigners can do it. We Chinese can not only do it, but also do better!" Zhang Liangang vowed.

It can only be built in 8 to 10 years abroad for only 3 and a half years

According to foreign experience, it takes 8-10 years from the project to complete the construction of the automation pier, but Zhang Liangang believes that "this speed cannot be waited." Persons and other responsibilities, use efficiency and time race.

"We always think of efficiency as our core task. How can you do faster than others? So this depends on you to give the best decision to the shortest time in various situations." Zhang Liangang express.

More than 40 draft layout plans, more than 7,000 loading and unloading processes test cases, more than 100,000 repeated tests ... In only 15 months, Zhang Liangang team took out the dock planning and design integration plan that fully conforms to Qingdao port. Among them, the automotive vehicle battery pack they developed reached the highest efficiency of the world.

With this spirit of struggle with this kind of "desperately can not do well, not desperate,", even the steel innovation team built the world's highest efficiency automation pier in three and a half years. On May 11, 2017, Qingdao Port Automated Container Pier 5 or 6 berths. With the whistle sounded, the production control center was ordering, and the bridge hanging, AGV, and rail cranes quickly operated. Dialogue call, thousands of containers or installations or unloading, flowing clouds, fast and precise — Qingdao Port fully automated container terminal was born.

Three years of tackling, they launched a series of dazzling "global first": the world has developed the world for the first time to successfully disassemble the container lock of the robot; the world has been successfully developed in the world. Circuit charging technology; the world's first non -equal long rear extension double small bridge hanging; the first high -speed rail crane no wheel wheel design to avoid wheel rails; realize the entire shore of automatic unmanned rash, fully automatic spray fumigation fumigation fumigation fumigation, fumigation fumigation fumigation Disinfection, fully automatic empty box inspection, automatic monitoring of cold box temperature ... Become a synonym for "China Speed"

For the "Lian Steel Innovation Team", the success of the first phase of the Qingdao port automation pier in Shandong Port is just the beginning. Breaking the world record and comprehensively surpassing the artificial terminal is the goal of continuous pursuit of the efficiency of the single -machine efficiency of Qingdao Port Automation Pier. At present, the average operating efficiency of the global automation pier is about 20 natural boxes per hour. The average operating efficiency of the single-machine operating of traditional artificial terminals is 25-28 natural boxes.

On December 3, 2017, the "Star Chicago" was carried by the automated terminal, and the operation was started at 0:20. At 9:25, the numbers on the screen are fixed in "39.6". This is a historic moment. On this pier designed and built by the Chinese, the average operating efficiency of the automated dock's single machine is born.

It is worth noting that, compared with the good results of the 52.7 natural box/hour of the eighth World Record 3 months ago, the ninth World Record has increased by 14.2%.

Since then, Qingdao Port Automation Wharf has become a "crusher" of the world's stand -alone operating efficiency record. Today, this number has surpassed it again and again, and has risen to the 60.18 natural box/hour. "It must always maintain a 50%higher efficiency than the average efficiency of single -pier stand -alone in the world." Zhang Liangang said full of confidence.

Today, Qingdao Port Automation Wharf has become the winner of the world's major container ship companies to punch the "punch card", becoming the first choice for the international route of the container, and become the "China speed" and "China efficiency" in the world of ports in the world. synonym! This is the world's leading fully automated container terminal in Asia, and it is also the world's first smart green pier to integrate "hydrogen+5G".

As the basic and hub facilities of the national economic and hub, Qingdao Port Shandong Port relies on scientific and technological forces to innovate operations and improve operating efficiency. From January to May this year, cargo throughput increased by 3.3%year-on-year, and containers increased by 7.8%year-on-year. Facing the future, Qingdao Port, Shandong Port will follow the requirements of Shandong Port, actively respond to the strategy of "scientific and technological power", "marine power" and "transportation power", and make every effort to promote various tasks such as production and operation, scientific and technological innovation, and application of new energy technology. Create more demonstrations and lead sexual green port construction models.
