The EUROGATE Group has brought on board Prodevelop to drive digitalisation at its container terminal in Hamburg.
The Digital TwinSim project will establish a ‘data lake’ and innovative processes to integrate IoT [internet of things] data with the port’s terminal operating system.
“This collaboration with EUROGATE on the Digital TwinSim project marks a milestone in our mission to drive the digitalisation of port operations and the adoption of Industry 4.0 technologies in the container handling sector,” said Miguel Montesinos, chief executive of Prodevelop.
Spanish software company, Prodevelop, joins akquinet port consulting and the University of Hamburg on EUROGATE’s endeavour to develop the digital twin to reshape processes and equipment at the terminal.
Prodevelop’s specific role will be to integrate terminal equipment into a unified view, adopting TIC 4.0 standards throughout, for enhanced efficiency and productivity.
“As we approach the key stage of the TwinSim project, leveraging big data to visualise current operations in real-time and predict future scenarios, our collaboration with Prodevelop stands as a cornerstone in our digital transformation journey,” said Patrick Jandt, head of IT at EUROGATE.
