en.Wedoany.com Reported - Recently, the results of the 2026 National Waterway Port "Digital Empowerment & Low-Carbon Transformation" Green Innovation Practice Case Selection were officially announced. SANY Marine's "Automated Four-Rope Rubber-Tired Gantry Crane Multi-Source Information Perception and Collaborative Control Technology and System" project, implemented at Tianjin Port, stood out among numerous participating cases and won the first prize. This honor is an authoritative recognition of SANY Marine's long-term dedication and technical strength in the field of port automation.
The automation retrofit of four-rope rubber-tired gantry cranes was once recognized as a major technical challenge in the industry. Nonlinear rope swing, complex spreader attitude control, and variable interference from the operating environment have long constrained the improvement of automation efficiency, making "automation equals reduced efficiency" a practical concern for many ports.
SANY Marine rose to the challenge. The project team's independently developed H-Move2.0 system deeply integrates multi-source perception technologies such as GPS high-precision positioning, AI visual recognition, and 3D scanning imaging, building a comprehensive, high-redundancy environmental perception system. Even under harsh conditions like strong light, rain, and fog at the port, the signal stability and reliability remain outstanding.
At the same time, the system incorporates AI algorithms and digital twin technology to simulate container trajectories and positions in real-time within a virtual space, intelligently predicting and planning the optimal movement speed and path for the equipment at the next moment, ensuring that every pick and place is precisely calculated.
In practical application at Tianjin Port, this system delivered a highly impressive performance—the operational efficiency of the automated four-rope rubber-tired gantry crane steadily exceeded 20 moves per hour. This marks the first time in the industry that automated rubber-tired gantry cranes have substantially surpassed manual operation efficiency, demonstrating that automated equipment can not only be faster and more accurate than humans but also safer and more stable.
In the future, SANY Marine will continue to be driven by technological innovation, making sustained breakthroughs in port automation and intelligence, and contributing stronger SANY strength to the construction of global green and smart ports.
