多式联运货运站在多式联运中发挥着关键作用。通过这些码头的运输时间是物流链中最相关的瓶颈之一。他们使用多种运输方式(铁路、船舶和卡车),在改变方式时无需对货物本身进行任何处理(无增值服务)。
An intermodal terminal management system, which is typically a terminal operating system (TOS), supports terminal operators to manage their terminal(s) efficiently and cost-effective, e.g. from operational planning by loading/unloading trains and trucks as well as vessels, running the gate operation and managing the storage of cargo/containers in the yard, etc. Apart from the waterborne (sea and inland waterways), air transport can also be integrated within an intermodal freight terminal.
The intermodal terminal management system is not only responsible for all operational planning processes. It also helps to reduce damages and losses by cargo being transported faster and congestion of terminal flows being prevented. The overall terminal capacity and terminal performance are increased.
