Westwell Showcases Its Smart Airport Solution Based Upon AI and New Energy at the IATA WCS
The World Cargo Symposium (WCS) hosted by the International Air Transport Association (IATA) came to a successful conclusion in Hong Kong, China from March 12 to 14. This is the biggest and most influential yearly event in the worldwide air cargo sector. As an international leader in "smart and brand-new energy" comprehensive options in the logistics industry, Westwell showcased its new "clever airport logistics and ground management" holistic solution at the occasion. Recently, Westwell established its international headquarters and overseas R&D center in Hong Kong. The main launching of Westwell Hong Kong Company at this occasion will accelerate its global company expansion by utilizing Hong Kong's worldwide resources, and promote the wise and sustainable transformation of the logistics market based on smart and brand-new energy technologies.
Themed by "driving sustainable and inclusive development", this year's WCS gathered crucial agents from international air freight terminals, freight forwarders, and solution suppliers to check out new transformation methods. Westwell has actually originated a holistic clever airport logistics and ground management solution for the airport situation in the logistics market. This solution uses autonomous driving innovation for cargo transportation and AI technology for cargo circulation, accomplishing an intelligent and green upgrade across the whole chain from freight forwarder, cargo terminal, to apron.


"Airports are the tactical circumstances for Westwell to expand its international logistics company, and we are making efforts to innovate towards effectiveness, security, and carbon reduction in the international air freight industry. Our study on the transportation security requirements of customers associated with airports and air freight showed that wise airport logistics solutions can not be totally carried out solely based on on-board vehicle intelligence. Therefore, Westwell devoted itself to R&D and has established a holistic wise transportation solution that integrates "GSE (Ground Assistance Devices) scheduling management system + intelligent ground transport devices" for airport logistic clients all over the world. On the other hand, we will work with our global supply chain partners to attain more sustainable and intelligent airport logistics," stated Kay Yang, the International Strategy Vice President of Westwell.
As a brand-new energy autonomous driving tractor, Q-Tractor P40 is an innovative ground transport devices established by Westwell, and plays a crucial role in the holistic solution for the airport situation. Based upon AI innovation, Q-Tractor P40 has been upgraded to have a hauling capacity of approximately 40T; based on innovative autonomous driving, it can adapt to intricate scenarios and provide a safe and user-friendly driving experience. In addition, Q-Tractor P40 flexibly switches between "manned and autonomous driving" modes according to various airport operating rules.It uses clean energy throughout its operations, contributing to environmentally friendly carbon decrease and overall efficiency improvement.


In face of considerable security duties and intricate ecological systems at airports, Westwell's GSE scheduling management system enables airports to coordinate and handle on-site cargo vehicles and devices in a more secure, smarter, and more detailed method. Through smart ground detection, the system controls lorry operations in real time to ensure apron security; through GSE coordination, scheduling and preparation, the system improves the performance of GSE collaborated operations and minimizes aircraft turn-around time; through cargo details exchange, the system provides much better ground cargo dealing with plans to enhance the safety of important products throughout ground transportation.
Moreover, Westwell also introduced a digital platform for the transport and operation of production components-- Loopo, which concentrates on offering freight logistics products and information services for various scenarios. Specifically customized for air freight agents, Loopo provides targeted supply chain services. By incorporating intelligent applications and AIoT (Artificial Intelligence of Things) innovation, Loopo ensures exact supply chain management, providing lower-cost order management and tracking, more efficient optimization and sharing of supply chain resources, transparent and trustworthy transport process monitoring, and a greener transportation structure for its clients.

With powerful full-stack AI advancement abilities, Westwell has commercialized its holistic new energy autonomous driving solution to cover logistics situations including seaports, trains, inland ports, airports, and manufacturing plants.To satisfy the needs of airport company growth worldwide, Westwell demands "automating cargo vehicles before traveler lorry upgrade and running autonomous tractors outside the flight location and after that around the airplane within the flight location". Focused around airport cargo terminals, we extend internally to the airside and externally serve freight forwarder transport, helping airport clients develop a modern wise logistics network that starts from air cargo and links air, sea, rail, and road transport.
