Vacuum fenders, designed to hold vessels stationary relative to the berth, were installed in January.
🔘The suction cups compensate for the vertical movement of the vessel during tides and during loading/unloading.
🔘The system moves freely up and down, completely blocking the longitudinal and lateral movement of the vessel.
The solution is aimed at simplifying and speeding up loading and unloading operations, especially at berths where unmanned gantry cranes operate.
The technology improves crane operation precision, reduces the risk of vessel movement, and increases overall terminal efficiency.
