What is an Automatic Container Number Recognition System?
An Automatic Container Number Recognition (ACNR) system uses OCR (Optical Character Recognition) technology to accurately identify standard codes on containers. This helps ports, container yards, and logistics hubs significantly improve operational efficiency and accuracy. It is one of the essential core components for building smart ports and enabling logistics centers to undergo digital transformation.
Key Technical and Functional Advantages
✅ 4K Image Recognition: Supports high-definition PTZ cameras, ensuring precise container code reading even in rainy or nighttime conditions.
✅ Flexible Recognition Modes: Supports both real-time video streams and static photo recognition to meet the needs of various scenarios.
✅ Full Container Size Support: Fully compatible with the ISO 6346 standard, accurately identifying containers from 10 feet to 45 feet.
✅ Real-time Data Integration: Quickly connects to Terminal Operating Systems (TOS) via LAN or 5G, enabling real-time operations and data synchronization.
✅ AI-powered Algorithm: Offers fast recognition speeds and a low error rate, with machine learning capabilities for continuous accuracy optimization.
Real-World Applications: Comprehensive Port Logistics Upgrades
🚢 Crane Automation
Deployed on quay cranes, rubber-tired gantry cranes (RTGs), or rail-mounted gantry cranes (RMGs), the system automatically reads the numbers of hoisted containers, eliminating the need for manual input.
📦 Container Stacking Management
Cameras and recognition modules are installed in stacking areas. When a container is moved, its location and number are automatically recorded, doubling management efficiency.
🚗 Mobile Inventory and Inspection Vehicles
The ConCode® ACNR Mobility system can be mounted on inspection vehicles for dynamic container inventory checks. This allows for automated, non-stop operations without the need for personnel to exit the vehicle, significantly saving labor and increasing accuracy.
