Go for terminal automation

Higher throughput with terminal automation

Automated checking reduces truck, train, and vessel turnaround. Faster and more accurate data means better use of the infrastructure, leading to shorter visits and increased capacity.

Increased accuracy

Camco OCR engines feature the highest accuracy available. Container data is without human intervention. Excellent recognition rates lead to better planning, reduced idle time, and fewer delays.

Capturing every single box

All gates are monitored 24/7, and every container and truck is captured, processed, recognized, and transferred to the TOS.

Increased safety with terminal automation

Manual checks can be dangerous. Tally men are exposed to moving equipment and exhaust fumes in harsh weather. Automated gates eliminate these risks, contributing to overall safety.

Improved customer service

Better control leads to shorter turnaround times, improving customer service.

Cost savings and ROI

Better use of terminal assets will increase capacity as more storage space becomes available. Automating tally processes will reduce the need for manual inspections, leading to cost savings.
