Artie couple |
In the past, barge transportation used to connect the boat and the barge using wire ropes, etc., but by introducing the Arty Couple (automatic connection device) method, the pusher boat and the barge are directly connected (integrated) to improve safety. In addition, it is possible to remote control the connection and disconnection of the boat and barge remotely from the steering room without adjusting the draft. |

Near-infrared camera |
Near-infrared cameras are installed on both sides of the bow of the container barge and a confirmation camera on both sides of the stern, enabling monitoring from the steering wheel. |
Side thruster |
By installing side thrusters on the bow of the barge, the left and right propulsion is generated, improving speed and safety when leaving and landing. |
Steering room |
Since the steering wheelhouse is located 11 meters above the water surface, it is easy to secure visibility when three containers are loaded on the barge, and 84 40ft containers can be loaded. |
