Doyle Shipping Group (DSG), the port service, logistics and renewable energy specialist, has fitted an advanced multi-camera system on a fleet of 14 rubber-tyred gantry crane to further improve safety at Dublin Port. This follows the success of the solution from Camera Telematics – initially fitted on 44 terminal tractors, as well as 16-tonne forklifts and reach stackers, operating at the port – which has contributed to a 35% reduction in serious incidents in the past two years.
“The camera system forms a crucial part of our strategy to develop the most advanced terminal in Ireland, using the latest digital aids to improve port safety and safeguard everyone working onsite,” explains Kieron Moore, SHEQ Manager at Doyle Shipping Group. “Working closely with Camera Telematics, we have implemented and expanded a highly effective camera solution that is playing a crucial role in reducing collisions, investigating incidents and enhancing Duty of Care.”
The rubber-tyred gantry (RTG) cranes have been installed with Camera Telematics’ iC360 solution, which has been adapted to meet unique operating requirements of container handling. This includes four cameras that cover the different views and angles needed to provide 360-degree visibility, with an in-cab monitor providing the operator with a complete view around the crane equipment. The camera solution is used alongside other digital safety tools including a RTG laser-based collision prevention system.
“The camera solution is a vital tool that enhances the other safety systems used within our digital strategy. As well as a real-time tool for our equipment operators, it is heavily used to investigate actual or alleged incidents, so we can quickly understand what took place, confirm liability and identify how best we can learn from the incident. With these proven benefits, there was a very strong case to roll-out the technology to our RTG cranes as part of our commitment to continuous safety improvement,” adds Kieron Moore.
Mark Stamper, Director of Camera Telematics said: “Our ability to develop highly reliable and functional camera solutions, adapted to the precise requirements of different cargo handling equipment, has made partner of choice to the port industry. Our technology, backed by our unmatched expertise and support, is making a massive difference improving safety and mitigating risk for valued customers, such as DSG, within the fast-paced and critical port environment.”
