Tyre manufacturer, Continental, is calling for a ‘digital transformation’ in port operations.
At this year’s TOC Europe in Rotterdam, the Netherlands, the company will be presenting tyre and digital technologies that fulfil its vision of ‘Smart Port – Better Flow’.
“We firmly believe that digital solutions – seamlessly intertwined with high-end tyre technologies – are the key to sustainable ports,” said Federico Jiménez, head of the Port Operation Tires Business Field.
“We are committed to supporting this smart port evolution with a portfolio that combines adaptability, efficiency and environmental responsibility.”
Continental offers a range of v.ply, radial and solid tyres suited to the port environment, including its DockMaster+ and the TerminalMaster.
For the first time ever at this year’s TOC, the company will showcase a complementary digital solution portfolio unique to the port segment.
It comprises tailor-made scalable solutions, such as ContiConnect, a fleet management platform for large port operation fleets and ContiConnect Lite, a leaner free-of-charge version for mobile devices that does not require any additional hardware other than the Gen2 tyre sensor.
There is also Continental’s new entry-level solution: the new Valve Cap Sensor for tyre pressure monitoring.
“We are looking forward to three exciting days where we will show that our intelligent tyres are an indispensable part of the digital infrastructure of a smart port,” said Teck Seng Chew, product manager for Port Operation Tires.
TOC Europe 2024 will take place on 11 – 13 June, 2024. Visitors will find Continental at booth H64 in Hall 1.
