Argus Automated Damage Inspection
Argus automated damage inspection helps identifying different damage types without needing additional hardware and without the need for manual inspection.

Preventing damaged containers from disrupting operations
Each day, hundreds or even thousands of containers enter the container terminal at the gate, on the quay, or by train.
Preventing severely damaged containers from entering the container terminal is key. Accidents can happen when handling or stacking severely damaged containers, jeopardizing people’s lives and disrupting operations, which can both inflict substantial costs.
Moreover, non-structural damage might affect the terminal’s customers: holes or rips in the container panels or the roof can spoil the container’s content.
Automated flagging of different damage types
The Camco ADI system automatically scans container pictures for several damage types:
- Rib deformation
- Corner Post damage
- Holes and rips
- Bulging and dents
- Open doors or door damage (bent bars, broken handles)
Damage to tank containers and open-top containers, as well as damage to trailers and chassis, will be available soon.
Increasing safety without slowing down the gate process
Terminals handle damage in different ways and Argus ADI can be customized to terminal needs.
The ADI system can be configured to flag only the most severe damages preventing operators from paying attention to minor damage with limited impact on operations. Still, no information is lost: all data is stored and available for damage claim management.
Improving terminal efficiency
With Camco’s ADI system, container and intermodal terminals can increase terminal efficiency by
- Improving safety
- Preventing disruption of operations
- Accelerating the gate process
- Improving damage claims management
Argus ADI in every Camco camera system
The Camco gate, crane, and rail OCR systems also include Argus ADI. Automated damage inspection is fully integrated into the Camco cameras and operator tool: no additional hardware or software is needed.
Don't let severely damaged containers disrupt operations.
Prevent damaged containers from entering the terminal, get notified of pre-set damage types and severities, and improve safety, speed of operations, and customer satisfaction.
