Cavtoec推出了MoorMaster NxG,這是下一代自動系泊解決方案,可通過減少停靠時間來減少油耗并提高港口生產率。
Cavtoec has launched MoorMaster NxG, a next-generation automated mooring solution which cuts fuel consumption and increases port productivity by reducing docking times.
Cavtoec在一份聲明中表示,MoorMaster NxG將徹底改變船舶進出港口的方式,并允許停泊僅需30秒。使用繩索和鏈條將船舶錨定到港口的系統可能需要一個小時。較短的周轉時間意味著需要更多的時間來降低速度,以降低油耗,從而使港口的運營更清潔,更安全。
In a statement, Cavotec said MoorMaster NxG will revolutionise the way ships enter and leave ports and allow mooring to take as little as 30 seconds. The system of anchoring ships to port using ropes and chains can take up to an hour.Shorter turn-around times mean more time cruising a lower speeds for lower fuel consumption, which in turn creates cleaner and safer port operations.
Cavotec首席執行官Mikael Norin表示:“作為真空系泊系統的發明者,我們已經使用了20年服務中的每一分鐘數據,從頭開始重新設計MoorMaster,以提供更快,更智能的安裝,改進的性能,持續的監控和易于維護。所有組件都具有更小,更精簡的占地面積和美觀的設計。
Mikael Norin, Cavotec CEO, said: “As the inventors of vacuum mooring, we’ve used every minute of data from 20 years’ service to redesign MoorMaster from the ground up, to deliver faster, smarter installation, improved performance, continuous monitoring and easier maintenance. All in a unit with a smaller more streamlined footprint and an aesthetically pleasing design.
“這些品質是ASKO Maritime在計劃引進世界上第一艘自動,零排放船舶時至關重要的。我們為被選為ASKO的主要合作伙伴感到非常自豪。”
“These are qualities that ASKO Maritime
have seen as crucial when they are planning the introduction of the world’s
first autonomous, zero emissions vessels. We are very proud of having been
selected as a key partner to ASKO,” Norin said.
挪威最大的運輸部門ASKO Maritime將受益于MoorMaster NxG在奧斯陸峽灣的運營,全電動船將在各個港口之間自動航行,從而取代200萬公里的卡車運輸,每年可節省5,000噸二氧化碳。
ASKO Maritime, the shipping arm of Norway’s largest grocery chain, will benefit from MoorMaster NxG in its Oslo Fjord operations where the fully electric ships will sail autonomously from port to port thereby replacing two million kilometres of truck transport, saving 5,000 tonnes of CO2 every year.
ASKO海事首席執行官Kai Just Olsen說道:“ MoorMaster系統將為我們節省大量能源,并且是自主運營的關鍵推動力。由于我們不需要在港口使用強大的船艏和側面推進器,因此我們的電動船將消耗更少的能量,并且可以延長電池壽命。MoorMaster技術是對我們的新船的完美補充-使用現代技術打造未來船隊。”
Kai Just Olsen, ASKO Maritime CEO, commented: “The MoorMaster system will save us huge amounts of energy and is a key enabler of autonomous operations. Since we won’t need to use the powerful bow and side thrusters in port, our electric vessels will use less energy and also extend the battery lifetime. The MoorMaster technology is perfect to complement to our new ships – using modern technology for a futuristic fleet.”
即使使用常規船舶,MoorMaster仍可在系泊期間將有害排放水平降低多達98%,從而為港口員工和附近社區提供更健康的環境。MoorMaster NxG擁有獲得專利的Active Control?技術,并使用專有的軟件算法消除了船舶運動,同時還大大提高了系統壽命。
Even with conventional vessels, MoorMaster can reduce the level of harmful emissions by as much as 98 per cent during mooring leading to a healthier environment for port employees and nearby communities. MoorMaster NxG comes with patented Active Control? technology and uses a proprietary software algorithm to eliminate vessel motion while also drastically increasing system lifetime.
對于港口而言,這可以提高裝卸效率,并可以實現未來的使用案例,例如全自動岸邊集裝箱起重機。通過連續記錄操作數據,人工智能的出現將通過全球所有站點的每一次軟件更新和每分鐘的操作來進一步改善MoorMaster NxG。
For ports, this leads to increased loading/offloading productivity and enables future use cases such as fully automated ship-to-shore cranes. With continuous recording of operational data, the advent of artificial intelligence is set to further improve MoorMaster NxG with every software update and every minute of operations at all sites worldwide.
諾林繼續說道:“在接下來的十年中,隨著智能運輸技術的引入,我們終于可以看到碼頭上緩慢而危險的繩索和鏈條使用的終結。現代航運業需要一種錨泊解決方案,該解決方案必須滿足并超過其對生產力的高期望,并減少了世界各地碼頭的碳排放。”
Norin continued: “In the next ten years, with the introduction of smart shipping technology, we could finally see the end of the slow and dangerous use of ropes and chains at dockside. A modern shipping industry needs a mooring solution that meets and exceeds its high expectations of productivity and reduced environmental footprint at docks around the world.”
