Automation of the gates of Tecon Santos, Tecon Vila do Conde e CLIA Santos

At the entrance of the terminals, drivers find a self-service kiosque where, after a biometric authentication, they validate personal information and receive instructions.



By implementing this, we make operations more agile, improve security, and speed-up information and cargo processes.

Innovation driven solutions
OCR Technology

Optical Character Recognition, or OCR, is an innovative technology that we swear by hereat Santos Brasil terminals.



Read on to learn how it increases productivity and provides higher security for information and employees:

Container

Through cameras installed on containers, it is possible to read and register data and characteristics of a container automatically. The reading via OCR prevents workers from climbing on a crane for time-consuming and dangerous manual procedures.

Seal

Santos Brasil’s collaborators use revolutionary technology installed within our tablets to read seals digitally. This advanced solution saves time spent in reading from seven seconds to 1.43 seconds.

Truck

When trucks approach the gates at customs terminals, OCR cameras automatically read and register the vehicle’s license plate and the container’s data.

Vehicle Booking System

Santos Brasil is the first enterprise in Brazil to develop and install such technology. The SAV (Port. abbr of Vehicle Booking System) available on our site and application allows customers to book deliveries and withdrawal of containers from our units. The SAV streamlines the process of checking information, also known as the act of booking. The digitization of the vehicle booking process has eliminated long lines and traffic within our terminals and around them by ensuring the alignment of the time of arrival between drivers and terminals.

Vehicle Scheduling System
Santos Brasil APP

We also offer incredible functionalities in the Customer Portal. In a quick and straightforward way, the customers can access them anytime, anywhere.



Santos Brasil APP
Agile Way App

This application is exclusive for drivers and offers agility in accessing terminals along with easy consulting information regarding the booking. It also offers check-in up to a distance of 1km (x 0.62 mile) from the terminal, which saves them from being fined as a result of failing to meet booking deadlines.


Furthermore, the application reduces the environmental impact of document printing, which aligns with our commitment to sustainability.

App Caminho Ágil
Automatic scale in cranes

This state-of-the-art technology allows container weighing, previously done only in conventional scales, to be done in the equipment itself, such as Rubber-tyred gantry cranes (RTG) and ship-to-shore cranes (STS). Through revolutionary sensors that measure force and weight, the automatic scale removes one level of the operation. This, in turn, reduces the time wasted in weighing and making transportation decisions and boosts the accuracy of the process.

Development of personalized APIs

To facilitate consultation and requirements, we offer our customers access to a series of APIs integrated within our systems. FaturaFácil [Easy Bill] is an example of a recently developed API that offers customers practicality and functionality when it comes to downloading real-time invoices, statements, and electronic receipts.
