The freight volume of China's first cross-border AGV transportation route has exceeded 10 million tons

According to Hohhot Customs statistics, as of December 1st, the cumulative freight volume of the cross-border AGV (Automated Guided Vehicle) transportation channel at Ganqimaodu Port has exceeded 10 million tons, reaching 10.0033 million tons, and the Customs has supervised a total of 303800 inbound and outbound AGV vehicles.

As the first cross-border AGV transportation route in China, this route was completed and put into use on July 16, 2022 at the China Mongolia Ganqimaodu Port. After the AGV vehicle lifts the goods from Mongolia, it is guided by magnetic nails buried underground and automatically travels along a specialized cross-border transportation channel of about 6 kilometers. It passes through the Ganqimaodu Port for inspection and release, and is directly connected to the intelligent supervision operation site to complete unloading. Then, it lifts the empty boxes out of the country and exchanges back and forth. The AGV vehicle can carry a single load of 70 tons, with a circulation transportation time of only 80 minutes, and its daily capacity can reach more than 5 times that of traditional collection trucks.

In order to ensure the efficient operation of cross-border AGV vehicles, Urat Customs is equipped with intelligent equipment such as spray disinfection and sterilization, radiation detection, inspection of large container machines, intelligent car body inspection, etc., and has launched the China Mongolia AGV intelligent dispatching system (TOS system) to realize the full process and full time direct operation of AGV vehicles between cross-border stations. At the same time, the "intelligent checkpoint" is used to automatically lift and release the card, with a maximum card passing time of 30 seconds per cycle.

According to statistics, since the beginning of this year, cross-border AGV transportation of goods at Ganqimaodu Port has reached 3.0782 million tons, with 92000 inbound and outbound AGV vehicles, accounting for about 1/9 of the total freight volume at the port during the same period.
