The night covers the Qianwan Port area, and the loading building remains as bright as daylight. A series of open top box trains slowly align, the system reads the carriage model, and the ingredient parameters are matched immediately. The loader replenishes the materials along the front, middle, and rear sections in sequence. On November 6th, the day and night open top box train loading stopped at 1442 cars, marking a new high for the year; Turning the calendar back, the weekly loading volume from November 2nd to 8th, 2026 reached 8263 vehicles, also breaking the annual record. The fourth quarter is coming to an end, and the deployment of the group's vigorous efforts in the fourth quarter and the sprint for the mobilization meeting has been put on every train and every bucket of material by the former Hong Kong company.

Where did the new high come from

In recent days, Qiangang Company has been making every effort to tackle challenges and work hard. Records are not built on impulse. The three precision management of production organization, namely precise planning, precise central control, and precise on-site, has been broken down into daily operation lists; The advantages of the four in one production organization continue to be released, the deployment of operations is refined item by item, the overall scheduling is continuously optimized, the potential for loading is excavated layer by layer, and the transportation plan is efficiently implemented. Previously, facing the pressure of yard turnover, dynamic follow-up and team collaboration have been the norm. The concentration of goods at the port in the fourth quarter directly determines whether the train can be loaded and transported quickly, whether the plan is detailed or not, and whether the connection is smooth or not. At this moment, the open top box has reached a new high, and the roots are twisted into a rope in planning, central control, and on-site, laying a solid foundation for the goal of achieving a full house red for the whole year.

Loading line blockage point

Each homework unit should cooperate and tackle the two hard bones of identification and loading first. The C60 open top box was once idle and returned empty due to the vague differentiation of system vehicle models and easy recognition bias. Starting from the source control, Qiangang Company has established a dedicated vehicle model database, distinguished vehicle models with clear targets, and assigned personnel to review each vehicle one by one, transforming old vehicle models into transportation increments. Nowadays, the loading team relies on the intelligent upgrade of the loading building to break through bottlenecks, continuously optimizes the automatic identification and loading technology of C60 open top boxes, enriches the vehicle database, and achieves more accurate automatic identification of carriages and matching of ingredient parameters. The stacking team relies on the technological transformation of the loading machine to solve the problem of material accumulation and material scattering on the truck side. The flow fleet divides the loading into front, middle, and rear sections for balanced propulsion, strictly adhering to the three checkpoints of connection, operation, and safety, and utilizing equipment gap maintenance to ensure that equipment is in place in advance and the process is zero waiting. Seizing the gap to inspect the chute and remotely checking the inner lining of the warehouse is also a long-standing maintenance habit of each team, which ensures safety and quality.

Ensure smooth operation of the entire chain

Whether the loading is fast or not depends on the preparation and rail support before the car arrives. The loading and unloading team prioritizes communication and confirmation by coordinating with railway freight to confirm real-time arrival information, coordinating with loading line production dispatchers to confirm vehicle conditions, rechecking work progress between teams, checking carriage and cargo type information in advance, and gradually compressing the preparation time. The railway station actively cooperates with the expansion and renovation of the north bank railway in Qianwan Port area, while carrying out equipment precision inspection, line inspection, signal maintenance, and operation connection to ensure zero fault operation of railway infrastructure. This renovation aims at the bottleneck of railway transportation capacity in the port area. By adding loading and unloading lines, optimizing the layout of stations, promoting the organic integration of yards, loading and unloading lines and highways, and building an intensive, intelligent, and integrated collection and distribution system, it achieves a dual reduction in logistics time and operating costs. The resource guarantee center synchronously completes the refueling of loading machinery to ensure the stable and efficient operation of loading equipment.

Next, Qiangang Company will continue to optimize the loading process and scheduling mode, achieve better results in the production battle in the fourth quarter, and spare no effort to achieve the goal of full house success for the whole year. The lights on the loading building are still on, and the next train is slowly approaching.Editor/Yang Meiling
