The AGV is supplied with all necessary information (collection location, destination, driving route, velocity, etc.) by the main computer of the Terminal via radio, in order to do the transport job. By the navigation software and respective hardware (magnet navigation via transponder, laser navigation via reflectors or wire navigation via inductive wires) the transporters are located on the terminal area and led to their place of action. In order to have highest safety for human being and the transporters the driving area is constantly controlled by certified and approved laser-scanning systems.

With the correct configuration of automated systems, high productivity and efficiency can be gained in the handling of containers both within container terminals and between closely located terminals. Optimised solutions for ensuring current berth productivity may promote the need for more terminal equipment such as cassettes and AGCs instead of additional cranes which are often the most expensive part of the system.
Whilst the TTS AGC system is an efficient and flexible container handling system optimising the horizontal transport between quay cranes and yard stacks, the system can also be utilised in other areas of the container terminal, for instance from the yard stack to the railhead.
In addition to the C-AGVs (container cassettes), the TTS AGC system comprises a navigation system and a traffic management system, both of which are able to
communicate with the most up-to-date TOS systems.

The C-AGV offers several key benefits The new vehicles have a load capacity of 61 tonnes, and can carry cassettes with double-stacked 40-foot containers or two 20-foot containers in a single tier. Major improvements to manoeuvrability have been made by incorporating individual electrically driven and steered bogie axles which enable the C-AGVs to be moved in any direction and turn through 360 degrees. This increases the versatility and flexibility of the AGV while minimising congestion at the quayside. The C-AGV can be steered conventionally or ‘crab’ diagonally, or it can move completely transversally. New cassette designs enable the C-AGV to enter and exit both transversally and longitudinally, which allows decoupling at the quayside that is the key to the system’s cargo handling efficiency.
