EUROGATE and Embotech have, in cooperation with MAFI, and ICT Group have successfully completed a pilot project demonstrating the maturity and flexibility of Embotech’s Autonomous Tractor Solutions at the EUROGATE Container Terminal Wilhelmshaven.
The project passed all tests for 18 different use cases, confirming that the system meets demanding port-logistics requirements.
Key achievements include:
The tests were performed on a MAFI terminal tractor with a NextG drive-by-wire, demonstrating that Embotech’s ATS is vehicle-agnostic and adaptable to different truck platforms.
Henrik Landau, Project Manager of this Proof-of-Concept at EUROGATE, commented that passing all tests confirms that autonomous technology can integrate with the operations and IT systems while meeting the highest safety standards.
Embotech’s Head of Business Development Niklas Thomas added that this collaboration with EUROGATE allowed them to prove that our ATS can serve as the main mode of horizontal transport on both Landside and Waterside.
