First commercial test ship for RWG

About half of the containers were unloaded the following day onto a barge.

In the coming months RWG will regularly receive commercial ‘test’ vessels, which will further increase the volume and functionalities. In the second quarter of 2015 RWG will welcome their first weekly service.

The loading and unloading is carried out through a fully automatic process, where the containers on a lift-AGV are placed. This fully electric Lift AGVs have performed transportation to the stacker cranes of RWG. The containers are then loaded via an automatic process onto a barge. In subsequent tests other modalities will be used for further transport to the hinterland.
