| Abstract | Stacking crane operations have been handled from a control room for some time now. As we begin to see ship-to-shore (STS) crane operators moving down from cranes to control rooms, the question arises: what does this mean for container terminals? One way to identify both opportunities and possible pitfalls is to look into what, for instance, process industries have done to improve the ergonomics and thus productivity by developing concepts for control rooms and the primary operator working environment. The recent orders awarded to ABB show that remote control of STS cranes has made its breakthrough on the market. Driven by the need for higher cranes with lifting heights over 50 metres and higher productivity requirements, we expect the demand for this technology to increase. |
