The TBA Group has revealed that its Autostore Terminal Operating System (TOS) has been running successfully at the Port Authority of the Cayman Islands (PACI).
According to a statement, Autostore TOS is maximizing the potential of Konecranes’ Boxhunter RTGs, which are the first to be delivered to the Caribbean region.
The cranes were chosen by the inland container terminal, located a few kilometres from the sea port at George Town, for their performance, ease of operation and ease of delivery.
