This article focuses on the overall layout mode of automated container ports based on unmanned container trucks,and conducts research on factors such as throughput capacity,operational efficiency,and construction costs under different layout modes.By comparing and analyzing four representative automated container ports and similar projects in China,combined with the technical characteristics of unmanned container trucks,the characteristics and applicable objects of four typical overall layout modes of automated container ports are obtained.Suitable layout mode can be selected based on the composition of container volume collection and distribution,automation implementation progress,and investment costs.Layout mode 3 adopts the mode of “double spanner,single car quay crane + double cantilever ARMG(parallel to terminals) + unmanned container truck + end U-turn and space isolation”,which has high safety,strong adaptability,good short-term and long-term connection,and can be widely promoted.
